:@[[User:Dash77|Dash77]] asked about this possibly first published reference to "sexual harassment." I received a scanned copy of the Globe and Male article I intially cited. It was a review by Hugh Gamer of the book, Maximum Security: Letters from Prison, edited by Eve Pell (1972). The review contains this paragraph (bold my own): "Among the criminal acts perpetrated against long-term California inmates is the theft of destruction by cell-searching guards of a prisoner's appeal to a higher court, the withholding of mail, the removal of a man from one penitentiary to another where his wife cannot afford to visit him, the '''sexual harassment''' of a female visitor by a guard who promises better privileges for her man in exchange for her favors, the tearing up or scribbling of obscenities on photographs of wife and children, the deliberate breaking or confiscation of the contents of a gift package." I also looked in the actual book (via Internet Archive), but did not find that phrase. So, at least we know that "sexual harassment" was used in print in March 1972. But I cannot say for certain, of course, if it appeared earlier...although I'd be happy either way. [[User:Cadbury333|Cadbury333]] ([[User talk:Cadbury333|talk]]) 18:02, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

Globe and Mail reference

Cadbury333 posted a reference to what is said to possibly be the first ever use of the term sexual harassment in print in Sexual_harassment#The term "sexual_harassment". The reference is said to be an article by Hugh Gardner in the Globe and Mail from 18 March 1972. In attempting to verify the content of this article, I've been unable to find it. A web search on "..and every prisoner an unprintable word" produces only links to this Wikipedia article. The source is said to be ProQuest Historical Newspapers digital archive. I do have access to that archive as a Wikipedia editor, but searching that archive I was unable to find the Gardner article.

@Dash77 asked about this possibly first published reference to "sexual harassment." I received a scanned copy of the Globe and Male article I intially cited. It was a review by Hugh Gamer of the book, Maximum Security: Letters from Prison, edited by Eve Pell (1972). The review contains this paragraph (bold my own): "Among the criminal acts perpetrated against long-term California inmates is the theft of destruction by cell-searching guards of a prisoner's appeal to a higher court, the withholding of mail, the removal of a man from one penitentiary to another where his wife cannot afford to visit him, the sexual harassment of a female visitor by a guard who promises better privileges for her man in exchange for her favors, the tearing up or scribbling of obscenities on photographs of wife and children, the deliberate breaking or confiscation of the contents of a gift package." I also looked in the actual book (via Internet Archive), but did not find that phrase. So, at least we know that "sexual harassment" was used in print in March 1972.
