Groping is a form of unwanted physical contact, typically involving touching or fondling someone in a sexual manner without their consent. It can occur in various settings, such as crowded places or private spaces, and often leaves the victim feeling violated and unsafe. Groping is considered a type of sexual assault and is illegal in many jurisdictions. Victims of groping may experience emotional and psychological effects, including anxiety, fear, and a loss of trust. Support services, such as counseling and legal assistance, are available to help those affected. Awareness campaigns aim to educate the public about the importance of consent and the impact of groping on individuals and communities.
