With stats like that it's interesting to me that no one had thought of such an invention like this before now.

Originally Posted By RoadTrip I agree. I don't see this as much of a solution. Experts say that rape is a crime of domination, control and violence; not just a desire for sex. I'm afraid the use of the condom would just bring violence to the next level resulting in the death of the woman.
Originally Posted By CuriouserConstance It might be a pretty strong deterrent though, if guys knew that all girls were getting these in. Although, are they easily removed? Because I can see lots of potential problems resulting if they are or if they aren't.

Originally Posted By CuriouserConstance Um, I don't mean to be gross or x-rated, but if we think hard, and think about guys not being able to rape a girl because a condom is implanted in her vagina, can we all use our imaginations and come up with a quick fix to that problem for the raper. What's the next best thing?
Originally Posted By Dr Hans Reinhardt "Although, are they easily removed? Because I can see lots of potential problems resulting if they are or if they aren't." From the article: >>The rapist in question will not be able to walk right or even urinate due to constant pain. If he tries getting rid of it, it will only get a tighter grip. However, the condom will not cause any serious harm like breaking the skin or giving way to the danger of any fluid exposure.<< Assuming that the pain is excruciating enough to disable the attacker I would think that in most instances the victim might be able to escape before he could do any further harm.

Originally Posted By CuriouserConstance Yes, I was, I could care less if the rapist had a vice grip on his *beep* for all eternity.

Originally Posted By DAR The part of me who hates rapists likes the vice grip part. The man part of me cries out in terror.
