The South African doctor, Sonnette Ehlers, has invented an anti-rape device, called RAPEX. One might say it's like a condom for women, but with TEETH - and they bite hard! Dr. Ehlers spent several decades in developing her device. Also she had to sell her house and car to fund her research as well as the development of the device.
According to Human Rights Watch, South Africa has one of the highest rates of rape-related crimes in the world. After helping a victim who bemoaned the fact that she didn't "have teeth down there" she decided that some drastic measures were needed: RAPEX was born. One of her inspirations was a male patient who had got his penis in his zippers. His severe pain and his inability to free himself gave her the idea of her anti-rape device.
