In experiment, 83% of women said they would confront a job interviewer who asked such sexually harassing questions as "Do you have a boyfriend?" And the more confrontation they predicted for themselves, the greater their contempt for women who didn't protest. Yet past research shows that most candidates who face such harassment do nothing to protest, says a team led by Kristina A. Diekmann of the University of Utah. People underestimate the costs of confrontation, such as impaired reputation and social status, if they don't experience the harassment themselves.
