Everyone has a right.
A lot of times rape goes unreported, the ones who are least likely to report it are males. This is a problem that has been around for a long time, also due to the archaic rape laws around the world.

Sexual harassment is wrong, whether the victim is male or female. The stereotype is that only women can be negatively impacted by sexual harassment. In reality, however, both men and women can be equally hurt by unwanted sexual advances. In short, the best solution is to protect the rights of both men and women equally so that they can make complaints against the perpetrator in sexual harassment cases.
Yes, for sure
Yes, sexual harassment can work both ways. Before, men may have felt intimidated to filing a complaint due to social constructs and pressures that made it seem not "manly" to do so. In this day and age, there should be no tolerance for harassment of anybody, no matter what their sex is.
