This is a disturbing trend [View all]

"Stealthing" is a new term to me. It refers to the nonconsensual act of a man secretly removing his condom during sex.

A report by the Columbia Journal of Gender and Law details the growth of this trend. "Lead author Alexandra Brodsky argues that “stealthing..." is a form of sexual assault and should be treated as such."

This article, from the New York Post, brings important information and I encourage DUers to read it:
