Archaic albiet crude solution. Don't marry or have sex if you don't intend to have kids.
Or if that's a bust.. Rosy Palm knows how men like it, and she's never gotten pregnant yet?
They aren't, really. Ghosting puts the woman at unexpected and undesired risk of STD transfer, or impregnation, both of which have direct negative effects on her body. It's that negative effect on her body that makes it an assault.
Birth control pills don't affect capacity to transfer STDs, and the guy can't get impregnated, so there's no comparable assault in that instance.
I never said that secretly stopping your birth control was "okay". It's not a form of assault, whereas slipping the agreed-upon condom off is, for the reasons stated. Stopping taking birth control isn't a criminal issue at all. The guy might have a civil case, but he wasn't put at any physical risk, unlike the other way around.
Since one puts your partner at significant physical risk, and the other does not, I can't agree that they are.
No, because again, you're missing/ignoring the physical risk component, which is why ghosting is considered significantly worse.But if we're going to argue semantics, then we can change the "stopped taking birth control" to "stole semen from a spent condom" and then both parties are equally violated.
After having spent just about all of my adult life in long term relationships where I could trust a partner not to do that kind of thing, these women are scum of the worst kind though I don't have much pity for the guys dumb enough to be having unprotected sex with them.
It should probably be a criminal act to lie about using birth control, the current legal framework doesn't address the issue well.
