Anyways I do agree that a power imbalance makes things much worse. But in a restaurant situation there still is a power imbalance. The "talent" is working for tips and put up with a LOT of lewd and crude comments, and I'm sure the occasional grab and grope, to earn their tips and keep customers happy. It's demoralizing. And harassment.

The whole tip culture makes things worse. When you go to a Chinese restaurant for example do you ever notice the waitress? And thus tip little.
