While reading the news this morning, an article on brand spanking new vaginal teeth caught my eye.
In the event of rape, the device folds itself around the rapist's penis, attaching to the skin with microscopic hooks. It is only when the rapist withdraws that he will realise the device is clamped around his penis.
"Its design will also go a long way towards lowering HIV infection as semen is contained in the device ... as well as preventing sexually transmitted diseases and unwanted pregnancies," Ehlers says.
As it is impossible to remove the device from a penis without medical help, hospitals and clinics will be able to alert police when assistance is sought.
My only concern with this is that once the rapist finds one of these attached to him, he'd be far more likely to do further violence. Perhaps a device equipped with a sedative as well is in order?
(I really don't think any of this is triggering, but if it is, please let me know and I'll be happy to put it under a cut.)

I am not sure which one it is in. . . I'm pretty sure it's not the Damned, though. I think the Mad is all about the girl in the mental asylum, but hmmm. . . it's been a long time. I have them all and could look, but they're all in boxes. (Mid-move)
