The Spiked Tampon.

So Old I'm Losing Radiation Signs
Sweden strikes again.

Check out the Film for LOL.

"Hey ladies, like being an irresponsible slut but worried that the creepy guy you just went home with might rape you? WORRY NO MORE!"

"Tired of your boyfriend/husband/father/stranger expecting sex all the time? Don't have the zeal to say no? WELL GUESS WHAT!?"

Way to take it like a bitch, lady.
 
That's going to appear in my nightmares one of these days, I know it.

Not to point out the obvious, but I think most people would tend to notice the string. I also tend to think that any woman that is so paranoid about rape that she would put up with that constant discomfort would probably be better off finding some better and more effective solution.
 
Seeing as how this was intended for rape protection, I have to wonder about your responses.
 
The first thought is:
"what if your significant other forgets to remove that"

ya know in one of those moments of passion when you don't think about the giant spike in your vagina...
 
Godamn, this is right out of a Discovery Channel special, heh. Spring loaded needles, razor tampons, etc. Madness, sheer madness.
 
Christ...now we'll hear via Sovz of some Romanian incorrectly "installing" one of these, leading to a whole new meaning of "Vlad the Impaler". Even better odds that it will be a guy who does it.
 
Someone will just come up with a Kevlar condom... gauranteed to protect against HIV, the clap, the drip, and the Giant Spike in the Tunnel-O'-Love...

Wild, man, just wild...
 
Right so it doesn't actually exist does it? I was thinking of going out a-rapin' tonight, and I'd rather not give my penis a new hole.



By the way, am I the only one who thought Snow Crash when seeing this? Anyone?

It's fake. Or at least there are no plans to put it into production.
The ads and such are made with the intent to create more of a debate about what to do about rape and create more awareness amongst mainly men, and it seems to be quite succesful as well.

But it seems to me that there isn't anything to debate, much like there isn't anything to debate about armed robbery or murder or other crime - everything that is a possible solution, deterent, or preventative measure is already well known. And I don't know about Europe, but I don't think men in the US can be any more aware of rape - not a week goes by without one or more brutual rapes being in the news.

What exactly are men being made aware of, though?

The possibility of getting their penisses impaled on accident?

This reminds me on a comic by Ralf König called "The Killer Condom" in the English translation. Just that in that case it was a condom that'd bite your wiener off.

...

Yes, I do realize his comics are about homosexuals, but if you work in a patient's library of a mental asylum all day you'll eventually just begin to read ANYTHING that happens to be around and doesn't require you to think much. :look:

And with the issue of consent while inebriated.

If anything this is just going to make rapists excercise caution. Or get blackjacks.
 
Awareness of how much of a problem this is (or isn't) to women. If women are crazy enough to start wearing these things, or consider to wear these things, men might think of it as more of a concrete problem rather than 'Hey, this never happened to anyone I know.'
And the fact that the burden of evidence lies with the woman, which is, considering the way our law works, logical, but rather complicated for the woman.
These are things these people want to bring to attention.
