How did I miss this? Catching up on old news.
"The world's 1st and only anti-rape condom"

This is a device that is claimed to work a bit like YT's dentata from Snow Crash - upon penetration, the man's penis is stabbed with lots of tiny needles that have to be surgically removed.

But it's not gone unopposed: S Africa 'rape trap' condemned.

"This is a medieval instrument, based on male-hating notions and fundamentally misunderstands the nature of rape and violence against women in this society," said Charlene Smith, one of South Africa's most prominent campaigners against rape.

For "one of South Africa's most prominent campaigners against rape", she sure comes across as a woman-hating rape apologist. But then, I'm on record as thinking it would be a better world if women had the legal right and ability to kill anyone who tried to rape them - if the law won't protect us, we have to protect ourselves.

If someone tries to rape me, I don't care if they go away from it dead or mutilated, thanks very much. I do, in fact, hate them. I hate what they'd have tried to do to me and what people like them have done to all women in this culture - the looking behind you, the not going out after dark alone, the constant fear, the knowledge that if it happens to you, you'll have next to no legal redress and most people will think it was your fault.

Charlene, you live in South Africa, which has some of the highest rates of rape in the world. How can you be opposed to women having the right to defend themselves?

If she could come up with an anal variant, it'd be *perfect*. Well, "perfect" assuming that every rapist didn't meet a torturous, brutal, bloody death at the hands of his victim.
