Non-consensual condom removal (NCCR) refers to the act of removing a condom during sex without the other person's permission. It poses physical and psychological risks to women's health. Views and attitudes regarding this sexual practice are not well understood in the UK. This study aimed to explore young people's views on the morality and criminality of NCCR and how their views are affected by negative health outcomes, relationship status, and socio-demographic characteristics.
A quantitative online survey of people aged 18-25 living in the UK was conducted. The survey consisted of two NCCR scenarios, varied by health outcome and relationship status, followed by questions about the morality and criminality of NCCR and respondents' socio-demographic characteristics. Statistical analysis included Chi-square testing and logistic regression modelling.
Most of the 1729 respondents considered NCCR to be a violation of consent to sex (97.4%-98.1%), to be wrong (99.3%-99.5%), and to be sexual assault (86.3%-89.2%). Respondents were more likely to support prison time for NCCR if the victim got pregnant (52.1%) (rather than depressed (41.6%)) or was part of a casual hook-up (53.9%) (as opposed to a long-term dating relationship (47.2%). Respondents who were female or non-heterosexual were more likely to view NCCR as sexual assault and support prison as a penalty for NCCR.
The majority of young UK adults in this survey considered condom removal during sex without the other person's permission to be a violation of consent, morally wrong, and a form of sexual assault. Support for prison as a penalty was lower. These findings can inform future campaigns on consent in sexual relationships and legislation to provide support for women affected by NCCR.
非自愿性避孕套移除（NCCR）是指在未经他人同意的情况下在性行为中移除避孕套的行为。它会对女性的健康造成身体和心理风险。在英国，人们对这种性行为的看法和态度还不太了解。本研究旨在探讨年轻人对 NCCR 的道德和犯罪性的看法，以及他们的看法如何受到负面健康后果、关系状况和社会人口特征的影响。
对居住在英国的 18-25 岁的人进行了一项定量在线调查。该调查由两个 NCCR 情景组成，根据健康结果和关系状况进行了变化，然后是关于 NCCR 的道德和犯罪性以及受访者的社会人口特征的问题。统计分析包括卡方检验和逻辑回归模型。
大多数 1729 名受访者认为 NCCR 违反了性行为同意（97.4%-98.1%），是错误的（99.3%-99.5%），并且是性侵犯（86.3%-89.2%）。如果受害者怀孕（52.1%）（而不是沮丧（41.6%））或属于偶然性关系（53.9%）（而不是长期约会关系（47.2%），受访者更有可能支持对 NCCR 判处监禁。如果受害者怀孕（52.1%）（而不是沮丧（41.6%））或属于偶然性关系（53.9%）（而不是长期约会关系（47.2%），受访者更有可能支持对 NCCR 判处监禁。如果受害者怀孕（52.1%）（而不是沮丧（41.6%））或属于偶然性关系（53.9%）（而不是长期约会关系（47.2%），受访者更有可能支持对 NCCR 判处监禁。
在这项调查中，大多数英国年轻人认为未经他人同意在性行为中移除避孕套是违反同意、道德上错误的，并且是性侵犯的一种形式。对监禁作为一种惩罚的支持较低。这些发现可以为未来关于性关系中同意的宣传和为受 NCCR 影响的妇女提供支持的立法提供信息。
