Can I be harassed at work because of my sexual orientation, even if it's not explicitly stated?

Yes, it is possible to experience harassment in the workplace because of your sexual orientation, even if it is not explicitly stated. This is because harassment can take many forms, including derogatory comments or slurs, exclusion from social activities or events, or negative treatment or discrimination based on your sexual orientation. It is important to note that discrimination based on sexual orientation is illegal under federal law and many state laws, and employers have a legal obligation to provide a workplace that is free from discrimination and harassment based on sexual orientation. If you believe you have been harassed at work because of your sexual orientation, you should report the harassment to your employer and consider seeking legal advice to understand your options for addressing the situation.
