Italian term or phrase: in ragione della diversità di espressione della sessualità
Oltre alla richiesta implicita o esplicita di prestazioni sessuali non gradite, rientrano nelle molestie sessuali atti e comportamenti, posti in essere negli ambienti di lavoro, che ingenerano situazioni di disagio o fastidio alterando il clima aziendale quali, ad esempio:

• contatti fisici fastidiosi ed indesiderati;
• apprezzamenti offensivi sul corpo e sulla sessualità;
• esposizione di materiale pornografico;
• messaggi scritti o oggetti allusivi lesivi della dignità della persona;
• intimidazioni, minacce e ricatti subiti per aver respinto comportamenti finalizzati al rapporto sessuale;
• scritti ed espressioni verbali sulla presunta inferiorità della persona, in quanto appartenente ad un determinato sesso, o denigratori (in ragione della diversità di espressione della sessualità)

disagree  Barbara Cochran, MFA: Is not a translation of the question as it has been entered./No way is it "awkward or difficult to understand" by most people, and this is a legal text, anyway.
