South African doctor invents female condoms with 'teeth' to fight rape


Dr. Sonnet Ehlers shows a spiked female condom, whose hooks she says stick on a man during rape.
STORY HIGHLIGHTS

* Doctor distributes anti-rape female condom during World Cup
* Jagged rows of teeth-like hooks attach on man's penis
* Device can only be removed by a doctor
* "It hurts, he cannot pee and walk when it's on," doctor says

(CNN) -- South African Dr. Sonnet Ehlers was on call one night four decades ago when a devastated rape victim walked in. Her eyes were lifeless; she was like a breathing corpse.

"She looked at me and said, 'If only I had teeth down there,'" recalled Ehlers, who was a 20-year-old medical researcher at the time. "I promised her I'd do something to help people like her one day."

Forty years later, Rape-aXe was born.

Ehlers is distributing the female condoms in the various South African cities where the World Cup soccer games are taking place.

The woman inserts the latex condom like a tampon. Jagged rows of teeth-like hooks line its inside and attach on a man's penis during penetration, Ehlers said.

Once it lodges, only a doctor can remove it -- a procedure Ehlers hopes will be done with authorities on standby to make an arrest.

"It hurts, he cannot pee and walk when it's on," she said. "If he tries to remove it, it will clasp even tighter... however, it doesn't break the skin, and there's no danger of fluid exposure."

Ehlers said she sold her house and car to launch the project, and she planned to distribute 30,000 free devices under supervision during the World Cup period.

"I consulted engineers, gynecologists and psychologists to help in the design and make sure it was safe," she said.

After the trial period, they'll be available for about $2 a piece. She hopes the women will report back to her.

"The ideal situation would be for a woman to wear this when she's going out on some kind of blind date ... or to an area she's not comfortable with," she said.

The mother of two daughters said she visited prisons and talked to convicted rapists to find out whether such a device would have made them rethink their actions.

Some said it would have, Ehlers said.

Critics say the female condom is not a long-term solution and makes women vulnerable to more violence from men trapped by the device.

It's also a form of "enslavement," said Victoria Kajja, a fellow for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the east African country of Uganda. "The fears surrounding the victim, the act of wearing the condom in anticipation of being assaulted all represent enslavement that no woman should be subjected to."

Kajja said the device constantly reminds women of their vulnerability.

"It not only presents the victim with a false sense of security, but psychological trauma," she added. "It also does not help with the psychological problems that manifest after assaults."

However, its one advantage is it allows justice to be served, she said.

Various rights organizations that work in South Africa declined to comment, including Human Rights Watch and Care International.

South Africa has one of the highest rape rates in the world, Human Rights Watch says on its website. A 2009 report by the nation's Medical Research Council found that 28 percent of men surveyed had raped a woman or girl, with one in 20 saying they had raped in the past year, according to Human Rights Watch.

In most African countries, rape convictions are not common. Affected women don't get immediate access to medical care, and DNA tests to provide evidence are unaffordable.

"Women and girls who experience these violations are denied justice, factors that contribute to the normalization of rape and violence in South African society," Human Rights Watch says.

Women take drastic measures to prevent rape in South Africa, Ehlers said, with some wearing extra tight biker shorts and others inserting razor blades wrapped in sponges in their private parts.

Critics have accused her of developing a medieval device to fight rape.

"Yes, my device may be a medieval, but it's for a medieval deed that has been around for decades," she said. "I believe something's got to be done ... and this will make some men rethink before they assault a woman."

That's the controversy of it. It could easily turn some rapes into murders.

Anyway, it's not a funny thread at all.

Rape is a crime of violence, so it most definitely can escalate into murder...bad idea here. Just wait till it gets into the hands (or nether regions) of vindictive girlfriends/ex-girlfriends, then we'll all be in for a treat

[HarlemHeat37]

I agree that this is too risky..

Pieces of shit like Kobe will always be around, there's nothing that can really be done, just have to watch out..for a guy like Kobe, there is literally nothing you can do if it's a "he said/she said" situation, because he buys his way out..

Rape is disgusting, but unfortunately, there will always be scumbags like that around..

This reminds me of the Vietnam-era movie where the prostitute had razor blades in her snatch...man, the name of the movie escapes me...

I know a Vietnam vet and there were several people in his division who had the top of their dick sliced through because they went out desperate as hell looking for pussy, some of them were so stupid they didn't even bring a gun when they went out at night there.

You said it yourself: He said/She said

There's no definitive proof either way. And since it's almost impossible to prove something DIDN't happen, one must analyze evidence for the offense and decide whether the evidence is conclusive. It clearly wasn't, therefore, to call him a rapist is unfair

[apalisoc_9]

YOu guys need to watch this shit

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teeth_(film)

It's a wikippedia link, I know. I can't link videos cause right now i'm using school internet. but just google.

[apalisoc_9]

No motherfucker!!! You come back when you now how to do it right. No one is going through that much trouble for your bitch ass.


I know how to di it right. Some people would bother looking at it cuz they're not lazy asses who things one search is "trouble".

If goggling is to much work for you, then i guess that pretty mcuh tells how you live your life.

If I remember correctly Cully asked for the ban.

You, well I can't imagine anyone asking to be a fool.

Don't try and get even now, Sookie. I zinged a good one. Just take it like a trooper, ya poor sport, you.

I never said it wasn't, your strat was so great, that I had to replicate it....now don't go getting all green on me sir, jealousy isn't your best color.

Take it like a man and give your kudos.

[MiamiHeat]

1) doesn't this defeat the purpose? If the man already ripped the woman's clothes off and stuck his penis in her vagina, it's too late.

she's now been violated and she is now going to suffer from psycho trauma.

the goal here is to prevent her from being penetrated....once he's already in her......damage is done....

2) just wait until your ex girlfriend wants revenge on you.

Do men all over the world now need to manually open a vagina and check it before they have sex with a woman ?


3) imagine all the possibilities for blackmail.

Woman meets dude at club.

Woman seduces dude, goes back to their place for some sex.

Man is horny, maybe drunk, too excited, and has sex with her.

Once he penetrates her, oops!

Woman now blackmails him. You tried to rape me! I want $10000 or I report you to police right now.

This can happen in Africa, as easily as it can happen in America.


GREAT IDEA DOCTOR WHO INVENTED THIS SHITTY CONDOM! GREAT IDEA!

[MiamiHeat]

Pimps and hookers all over the world now have a great way to blackmail people!

Hookers won't charge for sex anymore. They will seduce men and act like they are decent ladies.

and once they got their HOOKS into him, game over buddy! Pay up or be exposed to your wife, or family, or be reported to police for rape!


How on earth can the police tell who was deceived and who tried to rape?

[Giuseppe]

I never said it wasn't, your strat was so great, that I had to replicate it.

I'm a trend setter.

I set trends.

LOL I never said it was offensive ... Please read my post again and find where I said that?

I said it was "sad and pathetic" and i consider this thread "low" even for the NBA forum ...

I am by no means offended ...

I do think this is insensitive to victims of rape ...but since i am myself not a victim ...i have no right to be personally offended.

is this in any way more insensitive-compared to one of the laker trolls throwing out the LEN BIAS card recently?

^What is it, sweetheart, you lookin' for some mercy? I'll grant ya mercy, but, you got to ask for it, and in front of everybody.

Chop, chop.

[Killakobe81]

Hey I cant say I agree with Len bias jokes either ...and if you check those threads no LOL's from me on that topic either.

But since the Laker trolls and Celt trolls were going back and forth I understood it ...didnt agree with that line of trash-talk but i "got it".

Look it's a forum and trashtalk is all good ...but i think the Kobe flamers and fanbois shoud leave the rape topic along these lines alone.

Do i thnk he raped her? no. But to dismiss her JUST beacause she was was Sexually active is just as reprehensible as that jodie foster movie where she was raped and they made it seemed like she "deserved" it.

As for the morons that think saying kobe is a rapist is intelligent banter ...there are many men who have been falsely accused "because a groupie bent a truth or told a lie" ...

Can't we discuss basketball?

We have the draft, free-agency looming, trades and the lakers greatness to discuss!!!

Im off my soapbox ... and i hve put on my flame-resistamt suit ...have at me! :toast

[HarlemHeat37]

Len Bias cost a franchise long-term success, cost himself and his family some success, all so he can have some White Girl for a few hours..he's a POS, and his death is fair game for jokes..
