Australia’s first ‘stealthing’ law

Stealthing is the act of removing a condom mid-sex, without the partner’s knowledge. It’s become an issue of debate since the term was coined in the US back in 2017.

The Australian Capital Territory has become the first jurisdiction in the country to make stealthing a crime. The ACT’s Attorney-General Shane Rattenbury joins us to talk through his motivation to legislate against stealthing. We’re also joined by the writer, Mary Madigan, who wrote about her personal experience back in 2019.

While the ACT is the first state or territory to make stealthing a crime, it’s hopefully only a matter of time before other states follow.

On today’s Briefing….what is stealthing…and what you need to know if it happens to you.
