New device gives women teeth where it matters

[Sweetpear]

A rape victim once wished for teeth "where it mattered". Now a device has been designed to "bite" a rapist's penis. The patented device looks and is worn like a tampon, but it is hollow and attaches itself with tiny hooks to a man's penis during penetration.

This is a good idea. Although I wonder how effective it will actually be? seems like a woman would have to wear it alot if she is alone often or lives alone, and how many woman would actually want to wear something like that too often? What do you think Ladies?

[hapoo]

sounds very bad actually!
this devise is going to cause the penis to be punctured and bleed inside the woman! if he has any diseases you better believe its going to pour all over her.

[navyones]

I should've gotten my ex-wife one of those.

[zenbooty]

Anyone ever read Snow Crash? There was a teen who had installed a "dentata" for just such an emergency. Basically a device that will trigger on penetration and cause an immediate injection of a sedative cocktail into the intruding member (no pun intended) that immediately knocks the assailant unconcious. That would seem a lot more practical.

According to the article, it's "microscopic" hooks .. just made for clamping itself, not tearing it apart. I'd imagine there's no blood involved if I'm reading this right. Also, it's supposed to contain any fluids (semen, etc) so the thought it is would contain any blood if any is present? Dunno :/

My only concern would be any violence triggered out of anger once a rapist figures out what happened, eg killing her or beating her much more than he would have otherwise.

On the up point, they'll sell for R1 (about $0.17) .. cheap

I see big profit margins in selling these on ebay.

Honestly, it would be easier and more effective to simply carry a gun.

:stupid:

and it would probably be safer for the woman. take her to the range and teach her how to use and handle the gun properly.

[DarkFury]

As it is impossible to remove the device from a penis without medical help, hospitals and clinics will be able to alert police when assistance is sought.

"This will rule out any possibility of the rapist's escaping arrest and speed up conviction."

If the rapist tries to remove the device, it will only embed itself further.

"He will have to be put under anaesthetic to have it removed. He will not be able to leave it as he will be unable to urinate."


"Holy SnapDragons Batman!!!" :eek:

Yikes... talk about being in a bad situation! :eek:

[Sweetpear]

as long as no one uses this device for evil... like revenge sex with an ex or just pure man haters. Could start a new trend for those weenie choppers out there :gle:

Come to think of it, this would make men want to wait long enough to have trust, faith, honesty, etc. so they could feel more secure about going through with it. How long until a device is made to protect a "member" from this? Some kind of armor of sorts?

Or you could use a digit to "test the waters" to see if it's safe.

[BigJon]

Naaaaaasty!

[cheapie]

you know who would carry these? those same ugly-a$$ women that walk around town holding their pepper spray thing on their keychain. lady, the chances of your nasty self getting raped is....minimal at best.

what? i'm not saying they aren't worthy of a rape...as in it's something they should desire or appreciate. but during my college days it always seemed like the girls/teachers that were worried about getting raped were absolutely the ones that didn't need to worry about it!

rapists don't discriminate... most of them are opportunist. Race, young, old, pretty , homely, fat , skinny... they don't care, its all about control.

[cheapie]

i really don't think that's the case but could be wrong. i agree about the control thing tho'.

Yes, you are wrong. Rape is rarely about unsatiable desire and physical attraction. Mostly it's about violating someone and "having ones way"

[Jenny]

Yup, that is what we were always told, that it didn't matter what you looked like or what clothes you wore, etc. Provocative or not, the more vulnerable (ie, alone, head down, dark parking lot/sidewalk, etc) you are, the more likely you are.

No, there's nothing distasteful or misogynist about those statements. :rolleyes:

You have to realize that this originated in South africa where the rape statistics are shocking...there were 52,759 reported rapes in S.A in 2003,2004 alone.(and those where the ones that were reported-how many went unreported is questionably more...and you wonder why they are creating "biters"...

[Mommypooh]

I think I would rather just learn karate, and carry a gun.

cheapie i'm honestly supprised that you would post something like that.

:nono:

[mcs328]

I swear this is a repost that I put up but I can't find it. Ah well. Wouldn't it suck for your partner if you forgot to take it out. Oh the laughter...

[molecularfire]

I'm with those who aren't sure that this would be a good idea. I mean, there is no way that a guy would know that a girl is wearing this so it won't do a thing about prevention before the fact... and if it does become common I could easily see rapists starting off with sodomy (a stick should work fine) to adapt to this. The main thing that worries me about this though is that rapists don't have the best reputations for self control when things don't go their way so the woman could be at higher risk for violence. What they need is something that is visible on them that would get people to think it's not a good idea to rape them... like an "I have AIDS" sign or something.

But what happens when the rapist has AIDS too? That surely isn't gonna stop him. :2far:

[nickel]

i don't think anything is going to stop him. i have heard of women pleading they are pregnant and not to hurt the baby (even though they aren't) and have got rapists to sympathize with them that way.

[Cheetarah]

oh, if it were only that easy to get a concealed weapons permit, I know I'd be walking down the street with one hand in my purse. It would protect from more situations that the "teeth device", too.

[johnnymk]

Didn't some of the Vietnamese women use something similar during the war? I believe they were used as decoys to kill American GI's. I heard it from quite a few sources back then.

Nah... They just used the butcher knife. :eek:

good lord people! i'm just saying that many of the women i knew in college that carried stuff like that hated men and they were in no way likely to get raped. sheesh. i'm not saying women that dress a certain way deserve it, that they should be happy that they are a potential victim, or anything else.

and don't tell me that looks has nothing to do with which rape victim gets chosen. while it is a crime that is intended to convey power, you can bet that she...

is less likely to be a rape victim that her...

[nickel]

no denying that. without my hands on stats i'm still betting that most rape victims are desirable.

[zenbooty]

Dude, stop. You're just digging yourself in deeper.

[cheapie]

you still haven't offered a single reason why my comments are innapropriate. i wouldn't think a self-proclaimed intellectual would find this as difficult as you apparently do. :rolleyes:

[Jenny]

Your comments have just been a bit rude. And I'll look for statistics but I honestly think you're wrong...

[cheapie]

i am only saying that it seemed like many of the girls i knew in college that should have had pepper spray or a self-defense course didn't and some of the ones that just assumed men were animals and were constantly afraid really didn't need to be as concerned as they were. :shrug:

in the event stats say that rapist totally don't discriminate who they rape, fine. i've got no dog in this fight.

However, since most women who are sexually assaulted are between the ages of 16-24, this means that most sexual assault survivors are young women.


While sexual attraction may be influential, power, control and anger are the primary motives.


and no offense jenny, i'd like to see some research, not just a statement of myths.

i would like to clarify that i DO realize that the situation is likely far more important than what the person looks like. a 50yo woman in a dark parking lot is obviously at far more risk than a hottie on a beach. duh. but if a potential rapist was in two elevators, scared putrid old lady and nervous young normal female student would not be at equal risk.

Eek...the first pic looks like Johnny Cash in the "Hurt" video. The second, well...is she a friend? Very attractive. :naughty:

[ufcrusher]

I think Cheapies point is simply that while all women are capable of being raped, if a rapist has the choice between an attractive young co-ed and a Donna Frye look alike, well the Donna Frye look alike would be safer. Meaning that desirability increases the chance of rape. (If you dont understand the Donna Frye comment, you're lucky)

Personally, I do not agree with this. I think rape is a crime of opportunity, power, and degradation. Thus it doesnt matter if its some old woman in her nightgown or a teenage girl in her school outfit. You have these men who go in and attack 70 year old women in their beds. I doubt this is a matter of their appearance, but rather the fact that they are less likely to fight back, in some cases are senile and wont be able to report it, often live alone and generally open themselves up to the possibility of attack.

Compare that with a recent attack that happened here in San Diego...a young woman (20's) who was WALKING ALONE AT NIGHT ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD after a fight with her boyfriend was approached by a hispanic who asked her a question then raped her in the bushes. Her boyfriend who was coming to pick her up (they had been on the phone) interrupted the attack. Which factors do you think led to the attack...her appearance, the fact that she was alone on a deserted street late at night or both? I doubt she wouldnt have been attacked had she been less attractive (Note: I dont know what she looks like,so the attractiveness is in question) but had she not been alone or not been on that street at night...that would have made a real difference.

As for the device, women have been employing protection for most of recorded history. Chastity belts were meant to protect a womans virtue/chasteness. It was as much to prevent men from taking advantage of the woman as to prevent her from hopping on the nearest knight who winked. In one sense, this was protection from unwanted partners.

Prostitues used to make pouches in the skin under their tongue to hold razor blades. This way, in the event of attack they would manipulate the blade out with their tongue and turn the tables on their attackers.

Hell, women even pull out stun guns in bars now to get rid of unwanted advances. (Not to me people!)

[bricheese]

seems kool if someone knew they were going to be raped but they dont so who would want to carry it everywhere? thats being more paranoied then anything...if they sold these things, what is someone was mad at their boyfriend and used it on them? that wouldnt be right
