Reaching into a woman's blouse and fondling her breasts constitutes felony sexual battery.

Explanation:
Touching an intimate part without the other person’s consent is the key idea. When someone reaches into a blouse and fondles a breast, there is intentional sexual contact with an intimate area without permission. That non-consensual touching of a protected body part fits the elements of sexual battery, and because it involves a serious, non-consensual sexual act, it’s typically charged as a felony in many jurisdictions. So this situation is correctly described as felony sexual battery. If there had been clear consent or the contact involved a non-intimate part or a legal exception, the outcome could differ, but none of those are present here.
