Initially called RapeX,
this anti-rape female condom
has since been re-named to Rape-aXe in 2006.
It was invented by Sonnet Ehlers,
a South African woman,
who was motivated to create it
while working as a blood technician
with the South African Blood Transfusion Service.
During this period, she met many rape patients,
and was inspired by a particular victim who said,
"If only I had teeth down there."
It is basically a female condom
with teeth lining the inside that works just like
the protective spikes in a parking garage ...
You can go in, but whatever you do, don't back out.
The teeth are angled so they allow penetration,
but bite like a shark as the penis is removed;
supposedly causing so much pain that
it will give the woman a chance to escape.
Further, according to Ms Ehlers, the device
will need to be surgically removed at a hospital,
which will lead to capture of the rapist.
I want to know how did they field test it ?!?
