Removing a Condom During Intercourse Without your Partner’s Consent is now Punishable by Law in California

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bipartisan measure last Thursday making removing of condom during intercourse without consent illegal, a practice known as “stealthing.” The conduct is now included in the states civil definition of sexual battery, making California the first state in the United States to make stealthing unlawful.

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

with this new development, it is now recognized that removing a Condom During Intercourse Without your Partner’s Consent is now Punishable by Law in California.
