FONDLING Meaning and Definition

  1. Fondling is a term that can refer to the act of touching or caressing someone in an affectionate or sexual manner, usually involving the use of hands or fingers. It involves gentle or loving stroking, petting, or rubbing of another person's body or specific areas, often with the intention of showing care, desire, or affection.

    Typically, fondling is associated with physical and/or emotional intimacy, occurring between consenting individuals who have established a level of trust and closeness. It can take place within a romantic relationship, during foreplay, or as a way of expressing love and tenderness towards a partner.

    Fondling can include various forms of physical contact, such as softly running fingers through someone's hair, caressing their face, neck, or back, or gently holding and squeezing parts of their body. The intention behind fondling can range from just providing comfort, displaying affection, building intimacy, or contributing to sexual arousal in a consensual manner.

    It is important to note that fondling should always take place with the explicit consent and actively communicated boundaries of all involved parties in order to ensure mutual comfort, respect, and safety. Consent is an essential component of healthy sexual interactions, and any form of touching without consent is considered a violation of personal boundaries and may be regarded as sexual harassment or assault.

  2. A person or thing foundled or caressed.
