NCCR scenarios and their variations.

IntroductionNon-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.MethodsA 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.ResultsMost 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.ConclusionThe 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.

引言
非自愿摘套（Non-consensual condom removal, NCCR）指在性行为过程中未经对方许可摘除安全套的行为，该行为会对女性健康造成生理与心理层面的双重风险。目前英国学界对该性行为相关的观点与态度尚缺乏充分认知。本研究旨在探究年轻人对NCCR的道德属性与刑事定性的看法，以及负面健康结局、恋爱关系状态与社会人口学特征如何影响其相关观点。
方法
本研究针对居住在英国的18至25岁人群开展了定量线上调查。调查设置了两项基于NCCR的情境场景，场景分别在健康结局与恋爱关系状态维度上进行变量控制，随后设置了关于NCCR的道德性、刑事定性以及受访者社会人口学特征的相关问题。统计分析方法包括卡方检验与逻辑回归建模。
结果
在1729名受访者中，绝大多数（97.4%~98.1%）认为NCCR属于性行为同意的违背行为，99.3%~99.5%的受访者认为该行为在道德上存在错误，86.3%~89.2%的受访者将其认定为性侵犯。
当受害者出现怀孕结局时（52.1%），相较于受害者出现抑郁症状时（41.6%），或受害者属于临时约炮关系时（53.9%），相较于处于长期恋爱关系时（47.2%），受访者更倾向于支持对NCCR行为处以监禁刑罚。
女性或非异性恋身份的受访者更易将NCCR认定为性侵犯，并支持以监禁作为NCCR的处罚方式。
结论
本次调查中的绝大多数英国年轻成年人认为，未经对方许可摘除性行为中使用的安全套属于对性行为同意的违背、在道德上存在错误，且属于性侵犯的一种形式。但支持以监禁作为处罚的比例相对较低。本研究结果可为未来针对性关系中同意权的宣传活动，以及为受NCCR影响的女性提供支持的相关立法工作提供参考依据。
