Have to say that makes sense. Had the same experience, except creepy behavior from a female colleague. Talked to HR, they talked to her, she apologized through HR (my preference). Work was awkward after that, but you deal with it. She eventually left. I did not think what she did justified firing, although I would have preferred she were gone right away, of course. People do learn boundaries. One should not overreact.
