You don't even need that much power to abuse (sexually or otherwise) someone. If you have ever worked in a restaurant, especially as a female, you would have been harassed.
I was harassed by a waiter when I was a bus boy. It wasn't sexual, but it was an abuse of power and I knew it was wrong and I almost fought back (at 14). But my older brother told me to just accept it and move on.
