choose an option below
if the unwanted or inappropriate touching becomes forceful and violent.
if the unwanted or inappropriate touching happens in a private location.
if the unwanted or inappropriate touching began as verbal harassment.
if the person engaging in the harassing behavior is a male.

Explanation:

Sexual assault involves non - consensual and often forceful contact. Forceful and violent touching escalates from harassment to assault. Location, starting as verbal harassment, or gender of the harasser do not define the transition to sexual assault as accurately as the use of force.

Answer:

If the unwanted or inappropriate touching becomes forceful and violent.
