A very interesting news item from News:
"A South African inventor unveiled a new anti- female condom that hooks onto an attacker's penis and aims to cut one of the highest rates of sexual assault in the world."
Please read the whole article here:
Do you guys think that the critics are right is saying that the "rapex" condom could escalate violence against women as it may enrage the attacker further?
Or do you think it's about time such a thing was invented?
:shock: :shock: :shock: :scared:
Gor blimey, that'd make yer feckin eyes water ..................... good on her, shame it doesn't cut the fecking thing off at the same time.
as for your question, it could be said that it would enrage an attacker, on the other hand the shock might just give the woman enough time to escape.
Yeah good idea :thumbup:
Pity it ain't got a big knife in it so its chops his dick off lol
have to wonder what would happen if it decided to go off on it own accord while still in the woman tho confused could hurt a bit
confused :shock: :shock: .....assuming the victim has time and space to get packet...undo....position/insert..... :?

I agree. The only problem is that the woman would have to remember to wear it before she goes out to parties, clubs, etc. then again when do rapes happen? I mean they can happen anywhere can't they? Even at home by friends or relatives not necessarily at parties or clubs or in dark alleyways.
I suppose it's not and ideal method to stop but it goes a long way...
The only flaw I see in this is that it's aimed solely at the act of penetration. Athouth penetration is the main act of from what I understand it's the whole act of a physical and emotional attack that affects women (please ladies correct me if I'm wrong).

We're assuming of course that anal never happens.... or are they saying that women and men, well in fact, everyone, should wear these things up their arses too, just in case.

i think so far as the law goes there has to be penetration b4 it can be classed as anything else would be sexual assult

i think they just aiming at the most common form of , i mean if we're are going to strip it right down are we saying all kids should wear them too :?
Well it is an interesting self defence device, end of the day if a guy is someone he deserves all he gets in my opinion. However I think the comment about needing surgical removal may be a little ott. It is made of latex, not armour. Sure the attacker could remove it with it is not locked in, a careful would simply check first and remove it.
As for enraging the attacker, I would fight tooth and nail anyway. Even if you do everything you are asked you may find this is a nutter who will kill you afterwards. Give the bastards hell and make them go somewhere else. Ok that is a male perspective, and easy to say when you 6ft 5 and do martial arts for a hobby, but it is your body and you should be able to defend it. The surprise alone may be enough for you to get away. If a kick in the balls is enough to stop most blokes, shoving spikes right down their willy as they pull out should certainly be a distraction, enough to run for it anyway.
i personally would not trust to have one of these devices inside me, things do go wrong.
it will be intresting to see if any men come forward to act as guinnie pigs for the human man/woman trials. lol
another point , (although there are hundreds more,) if these products are in use,how long would it be before the becomes the victim and sues for damages????
oh and will it just be that rapists start to insert a impliment frist, likely to cause more internal damage to check out if a person is wearing one of these??
ill stop now b4 i go on and on
xx fem x
It will probably turn out that it will act as more of a deterrant to potential rapists who now decide not to because the idea of a hook in their penis does not quite do it for them!!

Its is easy to say when your a 6ft5 guy
i think most people would tell anyone who is being to just go along with it for their own safty
even tho you will want to hit out, if a guys trying to you punching him will not stop him it will just get you a beating and still get anyway
tho when you are put on the stop logic does not alway spring to mind
most rapests are not murder's as well and i think you will find that most of them will just you and do a runner if you did not fight back
IMHO a good idea in theory, but think that it will enrage a further, the victim may not get away with his/her life.
If you were that sick as to someone, I dont think you would think twice about lashing out it you were hurt.

Equally if a thinks that you will roll over and do what he asks just because you are scared it makes you a victim. This is one of those lose/lose situations. The smash and dash has been an age old self defence technique, if this puts him off you can do a runner.
End of the day, size up your attacker, look for weapons and make a call. I would run and scream like hell for starters, forget enraging him, he is about to do you serious harm anyway. If he has a weapon and your life is in serious danger then you must make the call then to go along or not. Even then I would keep an eye out for a chance to escape or if he was armed kill / incapacitate my attacker.
I do not envy any lady in this position (or bloke, men get as well). Each situation needs a different response, however for any extra injuries you may pick up escaping, if you are not then they would (in my opinion) be worth it, as long as you were alive. If you think they will kill you then your decision would be whatever it took to live through it, and prosecute the bastard afterwards.

Wow surprised It is true you do learn something new everyday!!
this idea doesn't take into account what may happen if the victim was attacked by more than one man. Whilst seeing one of their mates in agony, I can see some of the others taking revenge on the victim on behalf of the .
having said that though, is escalating at wild rate in Africa and I at least agree with any efforts they are making to prevent it

Looking at it from another POV, I'm 6'2", built like a brick outhouse, and know how to handle myself in a fight, but if somebody really wants to stop me doing something then gouging my eyes out, attempting to rip off my ears/nose, an old-fashioned kick to the knackers, etc, etc work just as well on me as on a 5' bloke who's 7 stone wet through.
Personally I've always had the philosophy that I'd much prefer to go down fighting than give in to an attacker or attackers, whether they're after my wallet or my ringpiece. People might consider me stupid for that, but I'm a stubborn bastard who hates being taken advantage of.
As for these devices, they're a nice idea but I'm not sure how well they'd work out in practice, for various reasions. A decent course of self-defence classes is probably a much better investment.
Guys, i know your posting with the best intentions but this maybe becoming a little upsetting for some on here . Lets think about whats being said hey.
Thanks guys,

Many rapes are caused by people known to the victim. Either date rapes, people you work with or even your own husband/boyfriend. In these circumstances, this device wouldn’t be of any use because you wouldn’t be expecting anything untoward to happen (if you did feel suspicious enough to put that device up you, surely you wouldn’t be alone with that person?) So, the main reason for using it would probably be in the stranger situations but they can happen at anytime (mid-day in car parks for example) does that mean that women are expected to have that inside all day?
I know that in some part of Africa, is rife. I have friends in Zimbabwe who wont leave their 12 year old daughter alone because there is an old wives tale (well, probably some old bloke tale) that says that if you a virgin it will cure HIV! However, I think that this devise may increase the violence against women because the reaction to having that stuck on a guy would probably be a fist. It looks to me as if this is some kind of stunt anyway.
The best defence against is knowledge about safety (for example, being careful about being drunk in public). Sadly though, it is something that many women (and some men) will experience. Maybe if the punishments for fitted the crimes more aptly, there would be a stronger deterrence, but most rapists are well aware that statistically they will get away with it.

Yes, it is upsetting, but that doesn’t mean that it should not be discussed, though the joking may go a bit too far. This crime should be discussed far more because at the moment in this country, far too many rapes are either going unreported, unsolved or unpunished.
For those of us who have experience of this crime (and there are loads, the stats are just the tip of the iceberg) it might be something that we never forget, but we can move on. If we don’t, the has won and we will have been brutalised twice.
