It is illegal to intentionally expose your genitals, buttocks, or to engage in sexual acts in public or on someone else's property where you reasonably expect others will see it and be offended, or where you do it for sexual gratification. It is also illegal to invite a child into your home and expose yourself or masturbate in front of them, or to masturbate in your own home intending a child to be present. This is a Class A misdemeanor punishable by up to 11 months and 29 days in jail and a fine of up to $2,500. Certain aggravated circumstances can increase the penalty to a Class E felony (1-6 years in prison).

Penalty: Class A misdemeanor; 11 months 29 days; fine up to $2,500

Sexual battery is unwanted sexual contact (touching of intimate parts or clothing covering intimate areas) accomplished through force, coercion, fraud, or when the victim is mentally incapacitated, mentally defective, or physically helpless. This is the less severe sexual offense not involving penetration. Conviction carries 1 to 6 years in prison and fines up to $3,000.

Penalty: Class E felony; 1-6 years; fine up to $3,000
