Too many times I've seen when we conducted training such as sexual harassment or suicide prevention you can look around the room and see the disinterest in people. Training in my experience had become a simple 'check in the box' type training because we had to do it. Instructors spend time and effort preparing training to education and inform our personnel but it's "in one ear and out the other." I look at crime and the individual committing it and wonder how they got to that point. I know they were taught to treat others with respect but somehow, for many different reasons, that doesn't stick with them. My wife is a pastor and she and her female colleagues face harassment with simple comments such as "she is a pretty pastor" or "she looks good in that outfit". Male pastors and much less likely to face comments such as those. I agree that human nature will not allow a perfect world. But how we make it less imperfect is the challenge; how do we really protect those from harassment?

MAJ Montgomery Granger of course they are inadequate. And we reached over saturation with mandatory briefings, I think it would be a bit better if MST survivors were to present this topic with details and how it changed our lives

Had that happen a few years back at a SHARP summit in Italy. We had 3 or 4 male MST survivors to tell their story to show it happens to men too.
