I'm not surprised you were unclear - my high school English teacher would have flunked me for that sentence!

What I meant is that the "jury of your peers" really is your peers. So, if a man makes an offensive comment to a woman, to validate the claim another woman would have to concur. So, it is whoever is on the receving end of the comment or action that looks to her or his peers. Is that more clear? Sorry! Also, check out the text of the law. It might be more clear than me!

Kari,

Thanks so much for your information. I have a quick question...when
you say, "It
states that words alone cannot constitute malicious harassment, unless they
can be reasonably construed to be a threat - that is, if another person of
the same gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc. would construe them to
be a threat," I'm a little unclear about the phrase in bold. Does
this mean if a male says a hostile comment to a woman, it
ismalicious harassment if another male would also find it a threat,
or just the opposite?
