I find childish antics funny that’s just a weakness of mine, but agree that when used threateningly like this as pre-cursor to sexual abuse is just horrific
I take it that a colleague that you know well has never come up to you with a cucumber at crotch height, plonked it on your desk, and said with a grin “so how about that then?”
I work with adults who mask their immaturity behind a thin veil of professionalism, but comes out in unexpected ways when certain topics come up. Others are a bit more candid and easier to get along with, because you know exactly what they’re thinking

At least that’s how my grandma used to say it
I don’t think “different strokes fpr different people” holds up when used to excuse sexual harassment in the workplace.
