All a rapist would need to do to bypass one of these would be to acquire one of the applicators required to remove it.

How long can you wear one for before using it?

Rape is not the problem of the person being raped.
Written by :Icarushow does it shift responsibility? and from who is it shifting responsibility from?
The shift of responsibility onto the woman (usually, although I suppose it would work for men who feared rape as well?) is damaging.
Written by :IcarusI dont understand how is it different to having say the option to buy a can of mase to defend yourself with? Its an option that is there if you want it.
I see it as another way of fear and control being given to women, and power being taken away, rather then the other way around.

I'm with Nathaniel on this one.. If someone is messed up enough to rape someone, and they get something stabbed in their penis for their efforts the aftermath isn't going to be pretty. You're probably going to provoke an extremely violent response.
Written by :jo_rhymesin western society perhaps that is the best solution where screaming may frighten a rapists off, what about in less fortunately areas of the world where stuff like
The best anti-rape device I can think of is to be as physically fit as you can, scream at the top of your lungs and a good hard knee to the ghoolies.

Written by :Icarusmen do achieve sexual gratification with women though? Are you saying you think that rape is an innate characteristic of humanity?
hmmm... while men still see women as beings that will fullful their own sexual gratification then there will be rape.
Written by :IcarusCan you elaborate a bit more
These devices perpetuate the myth that women are defined by their sex... sexuality... whatever.
Written by :IcarusI lock my front door to protect myself against theifs, while i should be able to leave my house unlocked I dont want to be vunerable to the actions of unsafe people, because i cant control which people are in my area i lock my door, surely protecting yourself is the smart thing to do (in anything).
That they must protect themselves against men who can't control their own actions.

Written by :IcarusI agree but we dont live in a perfect world
Women should not have this fear.
Written by :IcarusIm not, personally I think rapists should recieve the death penalty but thats off topic
Stop defending your sex and think about it.
Written by :IcarusPeople you would want to stop in their tracks are people who will not be stopped with reason and present you with an immediate danger, their intent is definately in the equation they are people who are intent on harming you
Because robbery, rape and murder are all different crimes. Mace is designed to stop someone in their tracks... their intent is not part of the equation

Written by :Dr_Birgiteven if it only reached one woman who needed it wouldnt it go a good thing?
I'm sure they'll get there no problem and will be delivered to every woman who needs them.
Written by :Dr_Birgitany form of deterent is better than no deterent particularly if it requires surgical removal to prevent permanent damage, having to go to hospital and fess up, in a resource poor country repeat offenders could be denied treatment ...
where people do whatever they want with women and children, do you seriously suggest that "condom" is gonna change a thing?

That it's feasible to give enough of them to thousands of refugees to wear EVERY DAY, and who are generally renowned for being just a wee bit difficult to reach and look after given their situation?
Written by :Dr_Birgitnot ALL peacekeepers abuse children
When UN peacekeepers - the ones who WOULD be giving out the condoms I suppose - abuse children, how's that going to work?
Written by :Dr_Birgitits not the solution to the worlds problems .... im not sure what gave you the impression that I thought it was .... im simply saying that it is an option that could help SOME people, surely it would be useful to the women you mentioned who get raped going to the river to get water for their families ..... possibly there would be retribution but atleast they have another option apart from being raped.
So what if someone just likes a helpless person to stroke their bits? Or practices anal abuse? What about beatings?
Written by :Dr_Birgitthis is true, there was never a claim that it did
That condom doesn't protect a woman from being violated and abused in other ways.

Written by :NathanielEveristBen Yengi (a friend of mine's father https://www.kadiaustralia.org/) would argue that while sudan has problems it is not as without hope as you make out, there are alot of good people in Sudan to, have you been to Sudan?
Sudan and other African nations, you've got to realise, that these people aren't afraid of the police, because they ARE the police, in fact worse, they're the military
Written by :NathanielEverist
What needs to happen is a shift in perceptions, and less corrupt governments (assuming we're still talking about the military dictatorships). Obviously this is hard, but until those inherent problems are fixed, women in those countries are going to remain objects, for use as sexual gratification or target practice should the soldiers be so inclined...

Nathaniel is raising a valid point: a woman raped and wearing a rapex... the perpetrator would shoot her first and only then go to the hospital to have it removed...
