I was wondering if it is common for tourette patients to have sexually overt behavior, not verbal tic wise. I work with a gentleman who is very touchy feely and I wonder if it may be because of his tourette’s, he does not have obvious tics but the behavior is concerning is not from his illness.

Tourette syndrome has nothing to do with that. Tourette’s is a tic disorder. That’s all. Nothing else. Common tics are things like nodding, shrugging, blinking, weird faces, grunting, coughing, humming, and so on. It’s nothing sexual.
