Alex3917 is right that sexual harassment outside the workplace is not illegal, but it's incorrect to say it's not "legally sexual harassment." It is sexual harassment, it's just not illegal sexual harassment.
For example, catcalling on the street isn't illegal. It's still sexual harassment, it's still unethical, but it's not illegal.
