Is Ehlers an MOT name?

This also reminds me of an anti-carjacking device that administers a lethal jolt of electricity to the would-be carjacker. Also a South African invention. See what people come up with when their government won't let them have guns?

This model is also offered in South Africa too:

One rape every 26 seconds in South Africa.

The more it hurts the better:)

The spoiler for this ingenious device - how does a woman know 'when' to prepare herself. These women have little discretion over much of their lives. How would they acquire rapex? This is an innovation whose time has come, unfortunately, in the cultural environment, it is hardly 'the' panacea.

I would bet that two successful uses of rapex would end rape-- assuming a little publicity follows.

If a man thinks a woman might just be wearing one of those, even if he isn't sure... Perhaps the men here can tell us how that thought might affect them?

I had tears in my eyes just reading the post

LOL!!

Other critics say the condom is medieval and barbaric -- an accusation Ehlers says should be directed rather at the act of rape.

No shit.

how does a woman know 'when' to prepare herself

That's also what I was thinking. Does she have to wear it all the time? When she goes out? When her dad's best friend, who raped her before, is coming by again?

I would bet that two successful uses of rapex would end rape

Or at least reduce it dramatically.

All we need now is to circulate a rumour that the Zionists who were shaking hands with men in a certain North African country, with unfortunate consequences for their manhood, have sent some of their female operatives in disguise to South Africa. Only they don't work by shaking hands...

Ehlers, who showed off a prototype on Wednesday, said women had tried it for comfort and it had been tested on a plastic male model but not yet on a live man.

What does she mean - yet?

Other critics say the condom is medieval and barbaric -- an accusation Ehlers says should be directed rather at the act of rape.

No shit, indeed -- but I do foresee the distinct possibility of abuse of such a device.

Just let 'em have the guns.

Anyone who uses their penis as a weapon to violate a woman need to have it seriously injured in return. That's about all I can say about it.

Le me yesh raglayim masrichot?

Sounds like a great idea to me.

Let's get them to as many women in South africa, and many other places, as possible.

There is also a spring-loaded ankle-crusher available to foil car jackers in SA. You hit the trigger, it shatters their ankles, and you drive off as they lay in the road, screaming in pain.

Hi WriterMom, I haven't seen you for a while. How are you?

#18 Sojourner

Hi there. I had a little boy in February, so now I am WriterMom of 3. And, if you have 3 kids, ya might as well have 300. It's so busy, I have so little time to play on line. But fortunately, I am going back to work soon, so I can have a life again.

I cannot comprehend rape.

if you have 3 kids, ya might as well have 300

Writermom, congrats on your new son!! Tis true about the third one, turns your life upside down and like you said, if you can do 3, you can handle anything!!!

Writer Mom,

Congratulations :)

Writermom -

Congratulations.

I am the third of three, and have always prided myself in being the worst of them all. Okay, that's not very encouraging ...

On the bright side, I never needed braces and I had no inconvenient food allergies.

Our youngest son had both!!

That's a key point about rape...Can't remember who said this, but I think it was a New York City DA. She noted that people call rape a sex crime, but it's actually a violent crime where the criminal uses sex as his weapon. I think that's an important distinction.

Thanks for all the good wishes...

I had the good fortune of meeting my sister's new daughter in law....from Berkeley. Heh. She was head of a rape counselling outfit. Heh. I told her that the best way to end rape was to kill the rapist and to teach women how to use guns. Heh. Boy did SHE go ballistic. Oh NO! she says, mustn't do anything to make women anything but victims! Here was her solution: Education. Yeah. Education. A bullet to the groin IS an education, doncha think....and HI! Marine Momma!

Looks they could use these in New Orleans. :(

A bullet to the groin IS an education, doncha think...

Actually, two 240 grain .45 caliber 850 fps taps to the forehead does a better job.

/ damn...I love Colt govt Model 1911's....but will try to refer to them less....:-)

If a man is inclined to use his penis to forcably rape a woman and ENJOY it, no amount of education is going to do diddly shit.

However, the threat of having his hot dog filleted, on the other hand, might do a great deal to make him re-think his misogynistic sexual tendencies.

I'd like to donate money to any groups trying to distribute these to women.

I certainly think these are a great idea, but I had another thought (yeah, two in one day, go figure!) in addition to the "when to prepare" problem.

If a potential rapist thinks she's using one of these, might he not then just... how to put this delicately?...
(Nope, I can't really put it delicately, so I'll Invis-O-Text™ instead)
[Invis-O-Text™: ON]...use a different orifice?[Invis-O-Text™: OFF]

Aridog, "Oh Mister Rapist, would you like one tap or two?"

I foresee a huge increase in cases of forced sodomy.

I wander if there is any way of checking for it first. If a man is going to rape someone and knows these are a possiblity, would he not just be able to remove it while prepping for the act.

I appreciate the idea of this being on the market, I am just not sure how much good it will do to advertise it and let the rapist know it is out there.

Surprise isn't always a bad thing. If he knows the dog may bite, wouldn't it seem reasonable first to place something else there to see if it grips a hold and remove it. Not to give any one any ideas but if I can think of this why can't the idiot rapist.

Just a thought.

These are definately good points, but even a system that is not foolproof is better than the lack of defense against rape that is in place now.

As a man I will tell you that if u were to have dozens of barbs stuck in your erect penis you would not have the concentration to be able to kill a fleeing woman. That would not be your primary concern. If she is dumb enough to stick around for you to find out what happened then yes she may be asking for murder. The real problem in South Africa, and many other developed and most non-developed nations, is that even when the attacker is caught red handed, or red penised (haha), there is a distinct lack of penalties that exists. Many of these men are getting just slaps on the wrist and end up back in their villages before too long. It is then that the women who wear them would become vulnerable to further attacks, perhaps deadly. Plus eventually those sick bastards who want to rape will figure out a way to remove the 'rapex' without inserting his penis. A finger perhaps? maybe a stick? who knows but its far from foolproof. Men in South Africa have surely heard of this thing or will soon. And if Islamic Jihad believes that every woman without head to toe covering is asking for rape then they are more severely ignorant and barbaric than we can comprehend. Why are these clerics allowed to remain in Australia and other so called 'developed' nations? Why are there not men out there who have the intestinal fortitude to take care of these scumbags themselves? A little street justice may be in order for people still living in 300 B.C.. And in the "War on Terror" I don't see any reason why we shouldn't spare a few cluster bombs to drop on roving bands of criminals known as Janjaweed. They are the primary problem in Darfur and if so many Americans know that, why does it seem our Government doesn't? Ignorance is by no means Bliss, my friends.

Apparently Ms. Elhers is totally unaware that this same concept was devised in early 1987. At that time Geraldo Rivera was notified and also two or three of the invention submission organizations throughout the United States by an individual who decided then that enough should have been enough. Up untill last year at this time, Oprah Winfrey was given the opportunity to digest this material and let the nation know that this concept had an availability to any investor that felt the same need to help society as a whole overcome this particular tragedy. The concept was simple enough, almost exactly the same but with a variation that provided the victim an opportunity to repel more than one attacker at a time without the possibility of retaliation. Again I re-iterate... this idea is American made!, on file, and waiting to be unleashed on the dregs of society....

Hmmmm,
Wheres the anti rape condom for men? Something like a condom with a pop out switch blade in it...Lets not be one sided here.Whats good for the goose,is also good for the gander.Equal rites now...

My sister was attacked and the attacker made sure the nothing was in his way. He checked first for ( tampon ) and then proceeded. This idea could make the attacker more anger and result to other means of aggression.

it sounds like a good idea and i'm for it but what if the rapist decides to preform sodemy, could this also protect against that, if it could, wouldn't it be helpful for men in prison also, what about small children how do they go out inserting the object?

Serial rapist will just check / pull this thing out in the same manner as the woman would do when she needed to take it out. Not to mention the infection this thing can cause, the body will begin to reject it after a cretin time. For every better mouse trap there is a smarter mouse.

But this is a good idea ~ for a while ~ anything to stop rape until the serial rapist get wind of this, and adjust.

The huge problem I see is that this method is getting a lot of publicity, it will take one rapist falling for this trick, before every other rapist either buys, or steals a rapex kit, that comes with the removing applicator, then, using the same thing the women use to put it in, he takes it out, and probably makes her "pay" for having it in.

this is too dangerous.. what if women use this as a weapon of mass.. well destruction on men?

You think that a couple spoiled attempts at rape are going to spread enough publicity to stop or even reduce rape in South Africa? It wouldn't even do such in a publicity-wild place like America. If someone is violent and into rape and doesn't care about hurting or killing another human being, why would they care about the pain of other rapists on the 6'o clock news?

Has anyone ever thought that, at best, rapists would simply change their method and "check" for the rapex device before insertion?

Why is this thread so popular after so long?

The best preventative for rape is general public knowledge that a large percentage of the female population is armed and trained, along with a statement by local authorities that prosecution of women "defending their virtue" will not be prosecuted.

a statement by local authorities that prosecution of women "defending their virtue" will not be prosecuted.

That prosecution of women "defending their virtue" will not be prosecuted?
Do you mean that self-defense won't be prosecuted? It isn't unless it's taken beyond that point (and if you can prove it of course), and yeah of course it is abused.

This isn't that easy to solve. Rape isn't. Don't think you know the answer right away here because different people act differently to the same situations. Why would a high percentage of armed females prevent rape? Do more weapons prevent the use of other weapons? Do rapists really care about any of this? Instead of preventing the problem, weapons and products like this rapex are really only mousetraps to catch a few mice that aren't smart enough to adapt, and humans are just great at adapting.

Rape isn't easy to solve? That's funny, cos last I heard rapists were still vulnerable to penetration by bullets.

And that is why you will never stop it...

Let's try this again team. And think with your brains, not with your hearts. Your emotions about this subject have clearly clouded your evaluation of this product.

First, Rapex will be the world wide leader in turning rapes into murders. While it is true that this condom would cause a significant amount of pain to an attacker it will not immobilize him. A kick to the groin is much different than non lethal spikes to the shaft. They have never tested this on an attacker and I believe that this is for many reasons. The first being that you can never, under any sane tactics, recreate a situation for rape to occur. Secondly, a test like this is too unlikely to get either female or more particularly male, applicants to apply for. And lastly, I believe that there is fear amongst the producers of such a product to actually run a physical test of the effects that this has to a live male. They claim, “When a rapist attacks, he looses control of his senses.” yet they contest that the attacker would suddenly be more concerned with his pain than with killing this poor girl? Simply put, if in a test of the Rapex condom a man was able to fight through the pain and “kill” a victim… well… then they wouldn’t have much of an advertising stand point for this product now would they?

Secondly, any idiot who has a TV or shops at Wal-mart would catch full wind of this matter. It’s not too hard for a rapist to pick up a pack of condoms and a Rapex remover. They’re located in the same section for God’s sake. Rapists, just like everyone else, will know that these things exist. They will either stick their finger in first or a Rapex remover. Not too tough team, not too tough. What will a girl do then. Take a beating after she irks some rapist by trying to trap him in a Rapex. I’m sure a rapist would be kind enough to forgive her for “forgetting” that is was in. Either that or send her to the hospital. Good call.

But let’s shift our focus to those who wouldn’t know about a Rapex condom. Primarily, NON RAPISTS!!! Just average regular guys who live their life by the letter of the law. Some studies show that up to 50% of rapes reported to police did not actually occur. They were called in because a woman either was confused about what happened, regretted her decision afterwards, or worst of all… she just wanted to enact some good old fashion revenge. Happens all the time guys. Much more often then you would probably think. Now, we comes along Rapex and their ironclad guarantee.

“For the first time there is now incriminating evidence, it will no longer be your word against his!”

Great. So now some jealous girl, who found out a guy was cheating on her, decides to put the guy up on IRREFUTABLE rape charges. Awesome…. They claim that “…there will be legal consequences. “ for such actions. But it counters their first claim of incriminating evidence. Think for one second, not only does a man get sexually abused in such a situation (a fact that no one apparently gives a damn about) he also gets sent away for 20 years in prison. No questions asked. If you could think of a good defense an innocent man could produce against such a claim then I would really like to hear it because from where I stand, the man hasn’t got a snowball’s chance in hell against a woman scorn. And of course this doesn’t even scratch the surface of all of those innocent men that just happen to get stuck in this thing when their partners forget. It’ll happen all the time and if offends me just as much as a sexual assault.

Accidents WILL happen, mark my words. Innocent men will be violated by this device, there is no doubt about it. But people go on with their lives ignoring the signs. No one cares about a man getting hurt anymore. It’s a non issue in this debate because closed minded people refuse to see this misuse of this product.

There is only one way to stop rape and that is to understand it. You must understand why men are driven to rape and nullify the problem at its source. Education to both men and women and the ability to gain a mutual respect for one another is the only solution. The Rapex condom will produce casualties on both sides. Men who are framed and women who are killed.

Do them a favor and educate others on the pitfalls of this flawed system of rape prevention. Together we can find a better way.

i don't mean to be rude but that's what lawyers are for. if a woman decides to abuse rapex, the guys can go to court. Yeah, court may not believe the man, but how do you think WOMEN feel now! Young girls and women are getting raped and assaulted, when they gather enough courage and actually face the attacker in court, most of the assailants are found NOT guilty...or given some flimsy sentence like community service or a month in jail!!!! we've been dealing with this for years and nobody seems to offer any suggestions or special educational programs in schools. now that there is something out there helping us, everyone thinks about how this will affect the MEN! puh-lease, don't you think it's a bit selfish.

no, rapex is not fullproof, but nothing is when it comes to situations like these.

and another thing, if a rapist decides to buy a rapex kit...people in the store are going to find it suspicious that a GUY IS BUYING RAPEX... what does he need it for? maybe his wife or whatever, but ....what are the chances a wife will do that to her husband... ????

it's good that they don't have guns...that would just be stupid. in a very violent place like africa, they don't need more weapons... weapons do nothing but bring about more madness. RAPEX is not a weapon, it is a defence, it is a confidence, it is safety and security.

as for advertising rapex. women should tell other women. people should try to avoid letting men hear about it, but some men will find out and there's no stopping that.

another thing... women wear it when they feel in danger.. it could be when a girl knows her mother's boyfriend is coming for dinner again, it could be when she is going to a movie or a club or whatever. obviously women won't let it remain inside them until the point of infection. it should be written on the box that they should periodically remove it and clean themselves. or whatever the required task is.

if rapex saves one woman, it's done it's job.
and remember devices don't kill people...people with devices kill people. so if a man is enraged at a women and decides to kill her. it's not rapex, it's the guy with the issues.

i think rapex is a great product to protect women and keep rapists off the street.

i don't mean to be rude but that's what lawyers are for. if a woman decides to abuse rapex, the guys can go to court. Yeah, court may not believe the man, but how do you think WOMEN feel now!

OMFG BABY RAPE LAWL!

What if that guy really is buying the Rapex condom for his wife or girlfriend? If they deny him the right to buy a certain product, he will sue. Then, companies will be afraid to reject selling the product to men. This product isn't going to help anything. Only thing good I see from this is guys will be more weary of the girls they date. But also rapists will be weary of the anti-rape condom. This product tried but failed.

ANYTHING CAN BE USED AS A WEAPON, even the Rapex condom.
And also look at texas and its guns, seems alot more peacful then any other place.

What is needed is a less corrupt government in South Africa. They do jack shit when rape is reported.

IS IT CAN BE RAEP TIME NOW PLOX?

so what, i just stick it in her pooper now

BABYFUCK BABYFUCK BABYFUCK it's awwwwriiiiiight!

Pedobear and Zimmer scof at your pitiful attempt

Only as selfish as it is just to think about the WOMEN. That's what lawyers are for, true--but a lawyer isn't going to do any good at all when a man has spikes in his penis. They say that Rapex won't permanently damage the man if he gets professional help without delay. What if he can't? This is something which can cause permanent physical damage.

as for advertising rapex. women should tell other women. people should try to avoid letting men hear about it, but some men will find out and there's no stopping that.

More than some men will find out. The product has already been advertised. And if knowledge of the device were only spread among women, that would put innocent men with vengeful wives or girlfriends in even more danger. And with the current advertising, a rapist will be likely to check his victim's vagina before penetration, whereas it would be very unlikely for an innocent man to do so.

if rapex saves one woman, it's done it's job.
and remember devices don't kill people...people with devices kill people. so if a man is enraged at a women and decides to kill her. it's not rapex, it's the guy with the issues.

Oh, Freud, eat your heart out.

PEOPLE! Use some god damn common sense.

It will just further anger the rapist, with a chance of causing a much bigger problem then rape. Which is brutality or murder.

#60 Common Sense

Rapists already often brutalize and murder their victims, as well as raping them. Rapists are already angry, warped creeps, which is why they need to be dealt with harshly. And law enforcement shouldn't give a tinker's damn about "angering them further." They should be soley concerned with stopping them, not tending their delicate feelings.

Frankly, I'm in favor of women with no criminal records being issued guns in areas where rape is prevalent, and being taught how to use them. If she shoots a rapist, well, he's dead, and nobody has to worry about his poor, injured feelings anymore. And he's not likely to cause any more problems, bigger, smaller or otherwise. Works for me.

I mean, quite bluntly, forget rapex, forget lawyers, forget stupid tricks, and, most definitely, forget idiocy such as "understanding" why men rape. Men rape for the same reasons bank robbers rob banks, con artists run cons and drug dealers push drugs. They enjoy it, and they get something out of it.

Let women in high danger areas defend themselves, let the cops haul these creeps off to jail, use rule of law and dump nonsense like "rapex" in the trash----or issue it to the rapists themselves, so maybe they can use it to keep from being jumped in prison.

I was raped by 3 men who held me down and took turns. The problem with rapex is if there is more than one perpetrator, the others may kill the woman for injuring their mate... rapex is good in a one on one situation but in a gang bang rape it's dangerous to the woman

Another problem with this product is it's able to be removed. If a person was going to commit a rape, one would think he might check a few places befor he put things there. Since the device can be inserted and removed, I'm sure it wouldn't be to hard of a task for an attacker whom already has his hands in that area (removing/ripping clothing and other things), to do a simple check and remove said item. I'm sure alot of them probably already do, since there is no telling if the person you are raping is having their period or such. Those that might seem offensive to some of you, you must realize that this product will only stop the really stupid rapists. It might slow down one or two that have down their "Way of things" but only the first time.

Just figured I would put up those points.

This is just going to get women killed. A rapist is going to insert his fingers first trying to get the victim wet and he is going to discover this device, remove it, rape the girl and then kill her for having the device. A better idea would be for women to not put themselves in situations where they can be raped.

Yeah, it's best for women to stay at home with the doors and windows locked.

And not drive any Toyotas.

Bigel has daughters?

And don't cats already have these things.

A better idea would be for women to not put themselves in situations where they can be raped.

Apparently he's never heard of the "dry rape" phenomenon in Africa.

I want to put my penis in that, just to see what it's like.

No one here will stop you.

I guess that "(because) rapists totally care about personal lubrication" is never going to make RT. :(

This device is sickening... I can already see women beginning to abuse it.

I would think this device would help young ladies living at home suffering from being raped by a family member and no one in the family believes her. Alot of girls would not even report that this abuse is even going on. Well if dear old dirty uncle or dad tries to come to her bed at night, does his thing and it happens I would like to see how he can explain the daggers stuck on his penis, especially to his wife.

BTW - Usually a rapist would just insert his penis not even caring about lubrication. And as for him getting violent, he already is. It is a Violent Crime, not an crime of passion. If the rapist tries to beat the woman after this, then probably he was going to be abusive anyway. As for STDs, it's made with latex and plastic. The rapist would not plan on using a condom to protect his victims anyway. Hey, if it is a wake up call for rapist, then so be it. As for them checking, he can also check if you have a gun too. You have a better chance at getting killed with your own gun then this device.

That's my two cents....

I couldn't have said it better myself! Yes, this device could be used as a weapon for abuse towards males, or a form of vengeance against an ex, but what about us FEMALES? We need something to protect us, and this device has promise. Granted it 's not 100% effective in protecting us from these vile monsters that plague the world in every situation, it certainly is better then ending up in this position completely defenseless. It could most definitely backfire, and there's no guarantee that it will protect all women at all times from the lowest form of man, but then again, there is never a guarantee for anything. Although I can see many problems arising out of this, should this potentially effective defense mechanism for us females be banned for the sake of the MEN? Give me a break! Banning this device to prevent women from abusing it, is just like saying it's less acceptable for an innocent man to get caught in the trap then to increase a woman's chances of protecting herself from a barbaric encounter. If these devices ever did become popular, males would simply have to be more cautious, just as us females have to be now. As far as I'm concerned, as long as males know their partners well enough to see they can trust them from using this device against them, then I don't see this becoming quite as much of a problem for men; or at least less of a problem in comparison to what us females face today. Any man that gets caught in this contraption, is most likely either an insufferable rapist that deserves every bit of the punishment that the anti-rape condom serves, or just plain foolish anyway. Chances are, he COULD also be a victim of a woman's scorn, but as someone already stated, that's what lawyers are for.

As for rapists buying rapex kits, you're totally right! It would look VERY suspicious if a man attempted to purchase a rapex kit. Who in their right mind would sell a rapex kit to a man anyway, when they are designed specifically for the opposite gender? For good reason, men should be refused of purchasing these items, and if a man claims he's buying the kit for his wife or girlfriend, that excuse should not suffice. Only women should be able to purchase these kits for themselves.

As for how the rapists may react to the bear trap, it's like you said.. the rapist itself is held accountable for how he reacts to it; the device's defense mechanism is not to blame. Any rapist capable of murdering his victims, will most likely kill his victim after raping her anyway; regardless of whether she's armed or not. I could see this anti-rape condom being especially effective in fending off a selfish boyfriend with the chauvinistic attitude of thinking he can do whatever he wants. Not to generalize, but it's more likely that a serial rapist will murder a victim for springing the trap on him, as opposed to let's say a horny, impulsive boyfriend that can't quite seem to grasp the meaning of "no" at the time. In that sense, I do believe that this device would be more useful in thwarting cases of date rape, instead of let's say, a random encounter with a potentially armed rapist on the streets. In cases of date rape, the typical attacker can be known to lose sight of mind and act upon selfish instinct. A serial rapist on the other hand, does not attack for sexual gratification, but rather for the sake of using sex as a weapon and the twisted satisfaction he may get out of making people suffer at his hand. In that sense, I would think this device more useful in fending off an out of control boyfriend as opposed to a serial rapist most likely capable of much worse. That is not to say that all rapist boyfriends aren't as violent as your typical serial rapist would be; some could be just as capable of murdering a victim, as a serial rapist preying upon random women. However, I would think that a girl would have a better chance of using the anti-rape condom to fend off a momentarily horny and out of control boyfriend without suffering a fatal beating in the process, then if she were to use it against a sadistic rapist that thrives on causing pain and suffering and knows well in advance how a rape victim might act. What I'm basically saying, is that even if rapists all belong on the same level, (lower then pond scum) not all of them are capable of murder - many are just selfish, insufferable creeps that need a good kick in the pants to thwart them. That aside though, even if my attacker WAS in fact dangerous, I think I would sooner take the risk of trying to fend him off with this thing and chance the possibility of facing a brutal death, as opposed to doing absolutely nothing at all and still quite possibly ending up a murder victim after being barbarically raped.

As for the rapist, I have ZERO sympathy for any male fallen victim to the bear trap, by forcing himself on a defenseless woman. This device may not be 100% effective in fending off ALL sexual offenders, but there are bound to be some that will fall for the trap. It's like you said, if one woman is spared, then the anti-rape condom has done it's job.

As far as the retaliation goes, twenty something barbs tearing into the penis is still too good for "men" like these if you ask me.

Thank you uninformed. It is currently the favorite method of "curing" AIDS in South Africa. The rumor is, sex with a virgin will cure you. To make sure she's a virgin, choose one as young as possible, and yes baby girls fall victim to this too. You insensitive ass.

"a male should know better then (sic) to be seduced by a scornful ex girlfriend". Now, I've heard a lot of stupid things from a lot of stupid women, but that just might take the cake. That's akin to saying, "A woman should know better than to wear hip-hugging dresses in a seedy part of town". Apparently, if an individual commits assault on another individual using this weapon, she is entitled to do so because the victim should have known better than to trust her; it's the victim's fault and not the perpetrator's. Well, like I always say: most women have one rule for themselves and one rule for their husbands, boyfriends, and children.

Surprise, surprise.

OK if anyone is still reading this--

To all the arguments against this product:

1. No where on this planet are people as informed and in touch with unbiased media as in the United States. Rapists are not reading blogs online and getting newspapers, they are in poor areas and most are gang members. Lets say rapists do find out about this condom by word of mouth, firstly it sounds like an urban myth (it HOOKS onto you, man!) and secondly it will have already saved women. Rapists are not normal functioning citizens like us and most likely are not going to PREPARE for their rape by going to the store and buying the remover for this product. Again, rapists are uneducated for the most part.

2. ANY DEVICE that could potentially protect a woman from something like rape is a miracle. the woman is going to feel empowered by this and hopefully wont feel as vulnerable, therefor wont BE as vulnerable. educated women can change this entire situation.

fuckers. have a little faith.

This is the most fuckin retarded thing I've ever heard of. The number one buyers of this thing are going to be man-hating feminists who want nothing more than to pick up a random dude at a bar and proceed to rip his dick off. If this thing actually becomes legal in North America, it'll be the last time i ever go to a club.

P.S. Fuck you, crazy South African bitch.

Oh, Lauraaaa! We need your services...

OK, lets see, several issues:
1) most Rapes happen in the rural parts of town, this better be sold or given out with running shoes.
2) would the attacker be even more enraged with the woman? Is it possible he would kill her now, instead of just raping her?
3) is the rapist going to hunt her down later, when his penis is bandaged?
I would have an issue with what the rapist MAY DO (as opposed to the rape that he was planning) as a result of what this thing does. Could they also include a female condom, in case the rapist does bleed, that way the woman has a poly/condom layer to protect her.

Lastly, Is rape ONLY vaginal? What would the woman do in a "GANG RAPE" situation? She disables ONE guy, now the so called crew beats her to inches of her life and rapes her repeatedly in the anus and vagina after the removal of the said device!

Good idea, bad follow thru, needs more and better implementation and design. Maybe more education, self defense courses, less human trafficing, less human slavery, better UN involvement, harsher penalties for Rape (Death?)and a better justice system?

This device is perfect for women who are at risk of being raped, like in cities where crime is high. I believe, however, that the fact that this device is like a diapraghm in that you need to constantly put new ones in, creates problems. This means that (as previously stated by others) that a disgruntled spouse or exgirlfriend could trick you into having sex then get satisfaction as she watches you writhe in pain. Then you have to go to the hospital and probably will recieve a rape charge, and probably will be scared and maybe without use of your genitals for a while. This device isn't right in that mannor

On the otherhand, women are at a disadvantage in a rape. This gives them the advantage. If a woman is deathly affraid of rape, enough to regularly insert a rapex tampon, then this tampon will give her a chance to grab her mace or what have you, and further attack her assailent after he has inserted himself. Then runs and calls the police.

This device is a step in the right direction for places like Africa, but not the US. People in our country would use this for harm, that's just how some people are. Women who fear rape, either through experience or personal views, should have an alternative. Something that will totaly detere an assailent from raping you. A better alternative would be making a more permanent rapeX, like one of those insertable birthcontrol devices. This will stop missuse of the product, but women can't have sex while the product is in, with their partner. People will probably disagree with me because it drastically limits the woman's lifestyle, but rape isn't a joke, and either is sadistacally maiming a penis. If you're seriously afraid of rape this glorified chastity belt will help. Perhaps a taser type device would help.

This product is just too dishonest

All women out there, if your afraid of rape, and don't know what to do. Take some self defense classes, they will not only make you ready ro defend an assailent, the classes will make you feel bettter about walking down the street.

Oh, and people need to stop relying on devices to solve all of their problems

Oh, Laaaura! We have another victim subject for you..

wow you guys must be fucking idoits, why on earth would you think these people are evil feminists hating men, fucking idoits fine let the women who think this isnt a good idea go get them selves raped. and i'm sorry but i were to rape a girl with that device in her and i get trapped by it i would most definatly start crying because it will fucking hurt. the slightest pinch to a penis hurts more than most women think. and besides your in risk of being murdered and beaten anyways if you resist the guy without the device anyways. this will give you an opening and get the fuck away. trust me a guy who rapes would be more focused trying to get the vagina teeth out of his dick than run after the girl and beat her to death

and yeah people are going to abuse its human nature. but seariously who fuckn just shoves thier penis into a vagina with out feeling it, or right the second after the panties are off. you got to be inexpierenced to do that. seariously you shouldnt even being dating someone who would do that to you. maybe this will help people get searious before having sex with each other.

Rapex, the gift that just keeps on giving.

Seariously.

Can we put rapex actually on this thread? So that idiots who keep posting months later without reading anything and, more importantly, can't spell, get a nasty surprise?

I am for euthanasia in cases like this.

Euthanasia by Rapex?

wow you guys must be f-ing idoits

I think that's a French idiot.

I say we start a thread involving Rapex and Vitamin C abortions at home.

Wow, you guys must be f-ing ultramaroons! Imbesiles! What an ignoranimus.

OOOHHHH! Can we redirect people who click on those google links to some irritating website?

I'm getting an idea for a new post on my blog! No, wait. Yes! I have it! Nope, false alarm. Ye---no.

This has got to be one of the most absolutely retarted ideas ever. The device would be known about by all the rapists, and they would know to check for it before raping the woman. And I am reasonably certain that a man who found his victim wearing this device would be very angry, and would hurt her even worse. Also, I have a hard time believing that it can only be surgically removed. The condom could easily just be cut apart with scissors, and then it would be easy to remove the hooks by hand. It also seems really likely that a woman could forget to remove the damn thing, and then when she has sex with her husband, it hurts him. This would probably happen alot more often than it would do its actual job of preventing rapes. Why not just stick to guns and self-defense skills? These have already been proven to work--we dont need any of these stupid ideas created by stupid people.

This has good intentions, but is equally retarded. The minute word gets out the women are using these, any half-witted rapist would simply test with a finger first, and if it's there, how hard is it for him to just pill it out.

I rate this device 2 vagina dentures out of a possible 10 vagina dentures.

All I have to say on this subject is BAD IDEA IS BAD

From the original post:

Does anyone have a problem with this? Of course they do. Stupid "activists" who reflexively oppose any form of self-defense do.

It has good intentions, but rape is still okay in Africa. Most of us are Americans and see rape as a terrible evil. But in Africa, they don't really care. If a man raped a woman and was then murdered by said woman, the woman would be punished. I think that the small guerrilla units will have their way (as they always do) and forcibly stop the distribution of this condom. I also think that most African women will be too scared to use this device. The political climate in Africa is suited to these small packs of militants that go from village to village.
