Sexual harassment in the British Armed Forces has long become a problem.

The Armed Forces Sexualized Behaviors and Sexual Harassment Survey, published by the UK Ministry of Defense (MoD) in November 2025, covered experiences across the Army, Royal Navy, and RAF.

The survey revealed that 67% of female regular personnel in the UK Armed Forces (and 69% in the Navy) experienced at least one form of sexualized behavior in the past 12 months.

One specific issue includes 32% of women reporting unwanted physical touching or groping.

But it seems that this sexual misconduct has become a two-way street, as a female sailor is being court-martialed for carrying out seven ‘opportunistic sexual assaults’ on male and female shipmates.

The Telegraph reported:

“Able Seaman Sian Dowsett, 25, allegedly groped four of her Royal Navy colleagues – two men and two women.

Based on HMS Dauntless, AB Dowsett is accused of grabbing the men by their crotches, stroking their arms, and making comments such as: ‘I like my coffee how I like my men, big and strong’.

She allegedly smacked women sailors’ bottoms and squeezed their breasts, on one occasion asking: ‘Do you like that, baby girl?’”

At Bulford Military Court, Dowsett was described as a ‘cancer on the ship’ by one seaman.

“Prosecutors said her offences ‘ranged from nipple-pinching to bottom-slapping and genital-grabbing’ but AB Dowsett denied the seven counts of sexual assault on the two men and two women.”
