During this time, Steenhoek endured constant sexually explicit questions involving topics like,\u00a0&#8220;Is your vagina shaved?&#8221;; &#8220;How often do you masturbate?&#8221;; &#8220;Do you enjoy giving hand jobs?&#8221;; and questions involving\u00a0masturbation, anal sex, and oral sex. Steenhoek further alleges in her complaint that such questions were meant to embarrass her because of her sexual inexperience and small town conservative views about sex.<br \/>\nThe people engaged in the conversations, she alleged, were the show&#8217;s executive producers, her <a href=\"https:\/\/discriminationandsexualharassmentlawyers.com\/employment-law\/sexual-harassment\/sexual-harassment-by-a-supervisor\/\">supervisor<\/a> and &#8220;Bachelorette\u201d Fletcher.<br \/>\nNow Steenhoek is suing Warner Bros. Entertainment, NZK Productions,\u00a0and five of the Bachelorette show&#8217;s producers \u2014 Elan Gale, Peter Scalettar, Jacqueline Naz Perez, Caitlin Stapleton, and Bennett Graebner \u2014 for sexual harassment and retaliation. She brings her claims after she alleged Warner Bros. did not take her claims seriously. Earlier this year, Warner Bros. &#8220;thoroughly investigated&#8221; her claims, however concluded that the results &#8220;did not support the plaintiff\u2019s characterization of the events claimed to have taken place.&#8221; Warner Bros. and NZK Productions, which produces the reality show, have since filed for arbitration.<br \/>\n&#8220;I was just getting asked a lot of personal questions, that had no relevancy to the show or really my job description.\u201d She explained that these conversations happened almost daily and that it was, \u201csomething that made me feel very uncomfortable and very kind of violated and it wasn&#8217;t something again, that had any relevancy to the show. It didn&#8217;t\u00a0have anything to do with how I was doing my job.&#8221;<br \/>\nSexual harassment does not only include instances were the harasser makes sexual comments because he or she wants to have sex with the victim.
