eg. How do you approach an STD test with a new partner?

Do you think spouses who gave STD to their spouse should be considered a criminal?

Asked by on September 30, 2013

I mean a spouse gives an STD to his/her spouse after an affair… the spouse who go the disease has no idea his/her spouse had sex with someone else, so s/he sleeps with their cheating spouse, then it’s transmitted.

What are your thoughts on this, do you think it should be considered a crime?

I meant, “the spouse who GOT the disease” yeah I heard that in certain countries, like South Korea, a person can be sued for cheating on their spouse.

It depends on if they know they have the disease or not. If they knew they had it and gave it to their spouse, they should be considered a criminal for sure, because they ruined someone elses life basically, and it could be something that could kill them, so it should be considered murder.
If they aren't aware of their condition, I would say maybe, but it really does depend on the people and the situation.
