Stealthing is sexual assault


RECENTLY, several news portals carried a story of a Malaysian woman filing a police report against a foreign man for removing his condom while they were having sex. The callous response of netizens to the story shows an egregious lack of sexual education on their part.

The act of removing a condom during sex without the consent of the partner is known as “stealthing”. It is illegal in many countries and is seen as a form of sexual assault.
