Although the vast number of sexual harassment and assault victims tend to be women it should be no surprise when men fall prey to these terrible casting couch experiences.

The term casting couch originated in the entertainment industry, with specific reference to couches in offices that could be used for sexual activity between casting directors or film producers and aspiring actors.
