Relates to unconsented removal or tampering with a sexually protective device

This bill amends New York's penal law to make it a crime to intentionally remove or tamper with a sexually protective device (like a condom or diaphragm) without consent during agreed-upon sexual activity, or to knowingly use a tampered device. It specifically prohibits three actions: removing protection without consent during sex, using a device known to be tampered with, or lying about using protection when none was used or it was ineffective. The law directly affects individuals engaging in sexual activity where protection was mutually agreed upon but compromised without consent. It defines "sexually protective device" to include common items like condoms, spermicide, and dental dams. The bill would take effect November 1, 2025, if passed.
