There have been a lot of articles lately on "stealthing," or someone removing a condom during sex without consent. More and more people are labeling this as sexual assault and there's even now a bill against stealthing being introduced in California.

For example, here's one woman's experience of being stealthed: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/may/22/stealthing-sex-trend-sexual-assault-crime

And here's an article about the California bill: http://www.teenvogue.com/story/stealthing-bill-advances-california

I think it's great that people are recognizing this as a form of sexual assault since I believe that for sex to be truly consensual everyone has to be fully informed. And if you say yes to having sex only with a condom your partner doesnt have permission to do whatever they want and put you at risk of pregnancy and STIs besides.

What do you all think about this? Has anyone here been stealthed?

My one potentially controversial question is, when making laws about sexual assault, should there be different punishments or penalties for different kinds of assault? Do you think the law should include specifically stealthing? How do you think the law should deal with stealthing?
