In most jurisdictions "Sexual Harassment" IS the legal term for unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature. It differs from Sexual Assault in that it does not require physical contact. Note that the exact legal definition of sexual harassment varies by jurisdiction.

Informally, the proper terms for people who engage in sexual harassment include:

Jerk

Creep

Imbecile

Cad

Boor

Heel

Louse

Cur

Rotter

Rat

Worm

... and a whole lot of terms that are not used in polite company - but then again sexual harassers have already excluded themselves from the category of "polite company" by their actions.
