RIJ - That is certainly a possibility.
Some years ago the cultural on wall street was such that sexual harassment was accepted. I remember there were stories of one brokerage/investment bank?? that had a room called the "boom boom" room.
I worked for a then big 6 accounting firm and was on a trip to DC - In a cab with one of the top female partners (60 years old) who managed a big office of ours. She was complaining how she had to deal w/a young female assoc. who was complaing b/c another assoc. asked her out. Partner - what did he say. Assoc. - He just asked me out. Partner - what else. Assoc. - nothing. Partner - Then why was it harassment? Assoc - Well he shouldn't be asking out anyone he works with. Partner says to us in cab - I wish people would ask me out.
