While there are certainly a large number of genuine problems out there, and I know some of them personally, I also think there are a number who are trying it on in order to obtain benefits.

I once asked my female sailors - 4 in all - if they had ever experienced any sexual harassment, either in our current posting or anywhere previously. Answers ranged from nothing I haven't been able to handle to I wouldn't mind some right now. However these were Naval Police, chosen for their ability to deal with difficult situations and in their mid to late 20s, slightly older than many sailors who may not have been able to deal with this issue in the same way.
