Even with the Department of Defense's (DOD) "Zero Tolerance" policy, sexually hostile work environments still exist in today's military. It ranges from verbal conduct that unreasonably interferes with an individual's work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment, to unwanted physical touching, and the dreadful sexual assault.

Two, it's the law of the land. The third is more fundamental. We cannot expect people to achieve their maximum potential in an environment where harassment or prejudice exists.
