South African doctor invents female condoms with 'teeth' to fight rape
- mbenjaminsmith 16y agoIf it can be put in without harming the woman, presumably it can be taken out just as easily. Why wouldn't a rapist just fish it out before assaulting her? It might work in cases of domestic abuse, but then it also might be seen as a vindictive act (getting him back for something other than forced sex). Regardless, I hope we can survive our adolescence.
- dkersten 16y agoWouldn't this just make the rapist angry, especially if he found out too late? Angry rapist could equal dead girl... EDIT: After reading the article, I see that others think so too: Critics say the female condom is not a long-term solution and makes women vulnerable to more violence from men trapped by the device.
