[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A woman's birth control does not protect from STDs so while lying about being on birth control is a heinous act I don't put it in the same category as removing a condom without constent. The latter in my opinion is much worse! [/quote]

Actually I think it's much worse. Antibiotics or Valtrex can fix most anything you'd pick up. I think it's a much more heinous (and expensive, and life changing) act to saddle someone with an unplanned/unwanted child for the rest of their life. [/quote]

This doesn't make sense. Lying about hormonal birth control can cause a pregnancy. Lying about a condom can cause a pregnancy AND spread diseases. Both lies are bad, both deceptive ways of getting someone pregnant are bad. Both violate the unknowing partner. Either way, the unknowing partner could use back up to prevent pregnancy, but they shouldn't have to protect themselves against that kind of violation. However, with stealthing,  the woman is also vulnerable to diseases that the man wouldn't be vulnerable to if she had lied about hormonal birth control. I don't see how anyone can say stealthing is no big deal or not as bad as lying about hormonal birth control. [/quote]
