Stealthing is when a partner secretly removes a condom during sex, without the other person's consent.

The act of stealthing, which Ms Fentiman said has become common, will attract a maximum penalty of life in prison.

Woah.

This wasn't previously illegal?

Implicitly, but now explicitly.

Thank you, I didn’t want to google this and end up on a list

It's sad that this practice is seemingly common enough to have a dedicated name.

It's nonconsensual unprotected sex. Coherent consent by someone considered to have the legal capacity to consent is key, and this is correct.

i immediately thought the word "steak thing" was like some type of Skyrim sneaking activity and im sad to see that it's not as cool as I was hoping :(

also autocorrect is too funny to fix it

Stealthing is also the name for when a trans person pretends that their preferred gender is the gender they've always had. And some assholes also consider that to be rape.

I read a story the other day about a guy whose lesbian friend operated an OnlyFans account. At one point she went to him and asked for help creating a video that one of her fans had requested. Not PIV sex, but sexually-charged activities (the story didn't specify exactly). She paid him a portion of the money she got from it.

Following this, the guy started following her OnlyFans anonymously, and began paying for more of the same content on a regular basis. Pretending he was one of her random online fans, paying so she would do sexual acts with him, and getting back some of the money he paid when she paid him.

The majority of comments under the post seemed to think this was absolutely fine. But if you ask me, that was sexual assault. Because it was sexual acts done under a dishonest premise.

He secretly turned her into a prostitute. That's a violation of consent.
