Harassment


Most of us resent being the victims of so-called harassment. All harassment is unpleasant because behind the behaviour and conduct of the harassers there is usually some kind of defect which could be described as the lack of understanding the needs and attitudes of other people.

When we are being harassed in some way it can be tough to defend ourselves. We cannot see the point of the behaviour of the harasser and that is why it can be difficult to fend ourselves against the discomfort that can arise in our lives when insensitive people are making us miserable with harassment and wrong and annoying conduct. Experience has shown that an irritating presence which is negative and indecent can be inappropriate and discomforting.

There are often no obvious explanations as to why some people choose to harass us. It often seems as if harassers lack the sensors to understand how normal communication between people should be. If we try to find out why we become the victims of pranks and annoyance of others it can be difficult for us to realize just what motives lie behind the harassment. It does seem as if some of us practically need to pester others in order to enjoy ourselves and seem to take immense pleasure out of doing so even though such behaviour is awful and wrong.

The fact is that it is abnormal to constantly bother other people and all of us should know that. We should always try for positive communication with other people so that we can be a part of a milder and more humane society. We should not make it unbearable for others to thrive. It is a known fact that by unnecessarily harassing others we can promote their mental breakdown.

A lack of understanding is one of the factors which make harassers so unpleasant, because their immaturity and ignorance makes them irritate others for no good reason. If we find ourselves in the situation of not fully understanding the views and will of others, that does not give us a permit to behave anyway we want with them.

Communication built on us being unable to feel free because imperfect people are constantly harassing us, is wrong and needs to be changed. To pester each other at any given opportunity is of course a very bad communication tactic and therefore it is important to eliminate the unfortunate and burdening behaviour of harassers and all others who promote negative relations.

We must avoid pretending that it is alright to make others miserable with disrespect and indecent harassment that serves no purpose. Many people do this unfortunately, and it is a shame. We should reject all nasty pranks and not persecute others for no good reason. Harassers are uninteresting people that do nothing but bother others and make a nuisance of themselves.
