Groping

Groping is intentionally touching someone else sexually, sometimes without that person's consent. Generally, the term has a negative connotation. In some countries, certain forms of groping count as sexual assault.The Age, 12 June 2019, 'Disgusting': man sentenced for groping female runner on Sydney's Bay Run Most countries consider it unacceptable behaviour. 

Note that if the other person wants to be touched, for example for a massage, or other sexual activity, this is not groping.  A doctor touching the body as part of a medical examination is also not groping. Areas of the body most frequently groped include the buttocks, breasts, vulva and thighs on a woman, and the penis, testicles and buttocks on a man. Gropers might use their hands, but pressing any part of their body against another person can be considered groping.

The practice that customs officials touch other people in a search, for example at airports, is controversial. Usually, there are rules of how a person is to be searched. Very often, people are searched by officials of the same sex. 

Groping is often shown in pornographic movies.
