Did Benyuk really not see harassment in higher education institutions? The actress criticized the statement of the people's artist.


There are widespread condemnations of Bohdan Benyuk's statements about incidents of harassment in theatrical universities. One of the actresses, Sofia Brovko, published a post in which she refuted his claims about 'undocumented' incidents, providing specific examples of unacceptable behavior by teachers, such as moral pressure and public harassment. She also disputed Benyuk's assertion that such cases are provoked by 'failed students' and asked if she is a 'failed student' if her teacher is trying to harass her.
Brovko noted that students trust their teachers, especially at the beginning of their studies, and called for an open discussion of this issue, condemning the culture of silence that prevails among theatrical colleagues. She also recalled cases of bullying of students who spoke about traumatic experiences and called for changes in the teaching process in the interest of student safety.
People's Artist of Ukraine Bohdan Benyuk supported the teachers accused of sexual harassment, pointing out that behind loud accusations often lie 'failed students'. He called for an objective consideration of the situation.
