"Taking it more seriously" is a very vague and ineffective way to do that. Taking it seriously is a prerequisite for any effective mechanism for reducing sexual harassment.

It’s pretty much orthogonal.

Many of the people most “taking it seriously” do the least to reduce its prevalence. Some are actually harassers.
