| Sumario: | Sexual harassment in public places of Pakistan is a social problem. In Pakistan, a good number of studies have been conducted on sexual harassment of women; however, they are based in educational institutes and the workplace settings. This research examined the gender and city-wise difference among the victims of sexual harassment. The sample was 452 victims (197 men and 255 women) with age ranging from 16 to 40 (M = 22.29, SD = 3.83) collected from different public places of three major cities of Pakistan including Islamabad, Karachi, and Lahore. The results indicated that women fall victims of sexual harassment more as compared to men. Results also indicated that men are the major perpetrators of committing sexual harassment. This study also reinforces the idea that men also experienced sexual harassment in public places of Pakistan and further research is needed to explore the experiences of sexual harassment.
