This includes, without limitation: sexual assault, sexual harassment, sexual exploitation, stalking, stealthing, indecent exposure, voyeurism, and non-consensual posting of sexually explicit pictures or video. Reference to an individual applies regardless of gender, sexual orientation or gender identity.
