Whoa... good news for South African women

Rape and AIDS is a horrible, horrible problem in Africa, especially in South Africa and Zaire. Now there's possibly a new tool to help catch these rapists and hopefully deter others from trying it:

New Device Gives Women Teeth Where It Matters

Apparently it's a device worn by the woman which will, in effect, clamp down and not let go. The rapist will not be able to go to the bathroom and will only be able to remove it by going to the hospital to have it surgically removed. If he tries to remove it himself, it only embeds itself further.

I hope they produce and distribute millions of these little gems.

Hat tip to Fishtown Chatter for this one.
