If I buy a girl a drink or start talking to them, that isn't sexual harassment. It's crossing the line by saying inappropriate things and making them uncomfortable that could be construed as such. It is very important to know the difference.
I don't think you get to make that decision. I think it's up to her whether it is or isn't. I think that's one of the things this campaign is trying to point out.
