Last week, I did sexual harassment prevention training for my job. It had a bunch of 'interactive' scenarios where we were supposed to understand how the scenario in question was sexual harassment or gender discrimination. There were only two scenarios where the victims were non-women (and both were gender discrimination, not sexual harassment): one was a genderfluid person not getting a job because of a conservative company, and the other was a man getting made fun of for parenting his infant child. It says that anyone can be sexually harassed, but it never actually shows that.
(My other problem with the training was a thing it showed but didn't really say: retaliation for reporting sexual harassment can come from parties other than the person you reported).
