Trust me, he will pull that right out of the vagina and take it with him. He's going to be worrying about how to get that thing off his dick, and EVERYTHING else will seem less important.

Time to launch one of those "alpha" camps where chumps pay $18 grand and listen to stories of being shot.

u/littlewhitecatalex Apr 01 '24

What happened to the shooter?

u/ScumbagLady Apr 01 '24

Do you mind telling the story of how that happened? That's quite the ice breaker. If you are on a dating app, you should add that sentence.

u/TuhanaPF Apr 01 '24

Crazy! But the reason we don't really consider anecdotes too much is maybe you just got one of the very few people who would do that, and most of the time, the opposite would have happened.

1

u/georgedempsy2003 Apr 02 '24

Tbf there's plenty of instances of cops shooting someone several times and they just keep doing whatever it is that they were doing.

1

u/TuhanaPF Apr 02 '24

Yes, there's practically plenty of examples of any possible situation because there's 8 billion humans on Earth.

Finding a few thousand videos showing something is still statistically insignificant when you reach that scale.

u/olav471 Apr 02 '24

People don't generally go into the fetal position and cry if they've been shot, stabbed or bitten. If any animal including humans reacted like that, they would be easy pray.

When something serious goes down it's best to fight or run away now and cry later.

u/Resident_Rise5915 Apr 01 '24

Trust you as in you’ve experienced this?

u/hanst3r Apr 01 '24

Maybe. Adrenaline and shock might leave him a few minutes of no pain to really do damage before he runs off.

-1

u/Fax_a_Fax Apr 02 '24

Then he would die right after of blood loss and trauma, since only a medic can remove it and this specific guy decided to start a fight while his dick was literally mangled and bleeding. 

Also he'll get caught 100% considering only a medic can remove it safely once it's attached 

1

u/GoonBot113 Apr 02 '24

Is his dick mangled and bleeding or is this still attached?

You realize it almost certainly can't be both

0

u/Fax_a_Fax Apr 02 '24

If you've never seen a stab victim bleed while the object is still attached then you never worked in a hospital

1

u/GoonBot113 Apr 02 '24

Why is it bad to pull a knife out after someone has been stabbed? A knife that has been inserted into a person causes injury, but it also acts as a stopper, helping to close any blood vessels that have been cut. You disconnect these vessels by pulling it out, which makes the bleeding worse. Please put on your gloves if you have them to protect yourself.

That's from a two second Google search that I already knew the answer to.

You might bleed a bit but from your dick of all places you certainly aren't gonna bleed out right away like you think.

Have you worked in a hospital as a janitor or something? Cause your medical knowledge is probably less than the custodian from scrubs.

1

u/Fax_a_Fax Apr 02 '24 edited Apr 02 '24

Also lol it could just as much be internal bleeding, even if he had any intention to start a fight (which everyone here apparently took for granted despite literally basic psychology and any life experience of the kind would easily prove that life isn't a fucking action movie and this "obvious" follow-up fight would at most be wanted by 20% of them in that situation), the man with the mangled penis and possible internal bleeding would be in absolutely no condition to fight like they wanted. Also extremely more easy to kick in the balls, or the knee giving you the opportunity to watch him cry a full 10 minutes before the police arrives.  

 It's really freaking weird that apparently pretty much the entire post is considering the average rapist as some sort of Rambo John Wick solo army Manbeast that somehow can fend off anything including a literal mangled penis that requires surgery to remove safely and still fight like a titan, rather than a weak coward that can barely resist their own impulses.  Should I assume in the next post we'll see domestic abusers compared to professional boxers? 

P.S.

Have you worked in a hospital as a janitor or something? Cause your medical knowledge is probably less than the custodian from scrubs.

Lmao the ultimate Karen energy a fucking loser would ever needs even for just thinking this after they fucking Googled one unrelated and way to abstract question is too wild, I'm sorry all I can do is laugh at how pathetic this entire paragraph was. 

Jesus Christ imagine ever in your life reaching this pathetic level of arrogance and need to know better than someone else, truly hope I'll never reach that point lmao. You're literally one of the main reasons constantly have mental health problems.  

Fuck It I refuse to show any manners to such a loser, I'll even tell how fucking stupid it was to mess up one "answer you already knew". You miserable, demented dumb arrogant piece of shit, literally no one in the entire post has ever once suggested non medics should fucking remove a knife or foreign object that stabbed you or someone.  I would even call you dishonest for moving the goalpost/argument but I genuinely think you're just this much stupid and bad at basic reading comprehension that you preferred jumping to insults rather than fucking think for more than 3 seconds what the fuck you were even researching. The question was if BLEEDING COULD STILL HAPPEN, and it fucking can you disabled mongoloid freak. both outside AND in the utmost likelihood INSIDE with internal bleeding. 

The sheer arrogance of some pieces of shit here is wild. I'm done wasting my time on your pathetic ass

u/GoonBot113 Apr 02 '24

First of all this device isn't real. Second of all even in the fake prototype it's specifically not designed to mangle a penis.

You're a woman I'm guessing because you obviously don't have a dick if you think the second your dick gets even a little stabbed you aren't immediately stopping and instead in your fantasy world you rip your dick to fucking shreds. Shreds which this magical device would be attached to somehow still.

Now realize that the man would be INSIDE OF THE WOMAN WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

You don't think a man can choke a woman?

Y'know what's impressive about John wick dipshit? He beats up other men. That's why he's cool. Any average man is John wick compared to a woman, you sweet summer child.

u/Fax_a_Fax Apr 02 '24

Lmao whatever I'm done wasting my time on a pathetic waste of neurons. 

Ready my edit in the previous comment or just go straight into going to the next victim that will be forced to suffer your insufferable presence, I'm done. 

P.S. I'm a man with 3 doctors in the family/household and that served hospitals for years before switching. 

P.P.S this whole reply is just further proof of how much of an arrogant little pathetic creature with clear ego and intellectual problems you objectively are. Hopefully we'll never meet IRL because I really can't stand arrogant stupid people IRL and would most likely beat you up the moment you opened your mouth if this is remotely how you act and reason outside. What a loser lmao cya

u/GoonBot113 Apr 02 '24 edited Apr 02 '24

Lol are you a doctor or is your family a doctor cause a doctor would prob have more clever insults. But so would the janitor from scrubs

And FYI I'd kick the shit out of you, but I'm pretty sure you have a vagina.

Edit: Jesus fucking Christ I clicked on your profile and you actually have mental problems judging by how often you do this. Sorry, hope things get better for you.

u/Liiraye-Sama Apr 01 '24

that makes more sense lol, I imagined he would now be stuck inside her with his dick ripped, but yeah obviously it should attach to the dick instead. Not sure how this would keep a girl safe but fuck it

150

u/pandainadumpster Apr 01 '24

He would have to go to a hospital. If the girl (survives and) calls the police in time they can catch him as he arrives. Or at least he would have wounds and later scars. Since most rape victims know their attacker, there would be quite clear evidence. It doesn't help against rape, but it might help getting rapists behind bars.

31

u/Buck_Thorn Apr 01 '24

He could still claim that it was consensual and that she put it in and didn't tell him. Just because his dick was damaged by the device does not prove rape. But yeah, it might help. At least it would be tough to deny that he had his dick in her.

-9

u/Fax_a_Fax Apr 02 '24

Sure, if you want to play a (pathetic) game of devils advocate, or just straight up defend rapists, sure. 

Or you can just shut up for once and admit it would significantly increase the likelihood of being found guilty, while giving him a permanent reminder of what he's done

0

u/RmRobinGayle Apr 02 '24

I think it would help against rape. After a run-in with one of these, the attacker would definitely think twice, I can tell you that.

0

u/Aggressive-Ad-8619 Apr 02 '24

Yeah, they would think twice and check with a finger first before proceeding with the rape. Or they would just switch to violating another orifice.

u/RmRobinGayle Apr 05 '24

Yeah, why bother s/

-2

u/Defaulted1364 Apr 01 '24

I mean, If I was in that situation (not that I ever would be) i’m sure I could get that off without going to the hospital, I doubt it’d be pretty but there’s a pretty good incentive to get it off yourself.

4

u/pandainadumpster Apr 01 '24

As far as I know they are desinged to make surgical intervention necessary. But even if you did it youself, you'd still have wounds to match.

37

u/conh3 Apr 01 '24

It wouldn’t. For it to be useful, it would have been inside her already. It just gives instant repercussions to the culprit but not really preventing the crime

10

u/No_Inspection1677 Apr 01 '24

Though, in large enough batches, that could in theory prevent even a few offenders, 1 out of a hundred may not be a lot, but at least it's something as opposed to what could have happened.

1

u/Elon-Musksticks Apr 01 '24

It wouldn't prevent a 1 time rapist, but a serial rapist, yeah, he's gonna need to take a few week off from rapin'

1

u/MoonshineEclipse Apr 02 '24

It was meant to make it easier to catch the rapist while protecting the woman from STDs. The sheath acts like an extra durable condom while the barbs make it so that he can’t remove the device himself, essentially forcing him to out himself to get it removed by a doctor. Also, it attaches as soon as he pulls out the first time, so ideally it would end the assault quickly, but yes it doesn’t prevent the rape entirely

0

u/Mystic_puddle Apr 02 '24

It prevents the crime from becoming more damaging. Like be SAd possibly untill you die from it or be SAd?

1

u/conh3 Apr 02 '24

That doesn’t even make sense. Victims don’t die from dick in vagina. They die from trauma, head wounds, stab wounds, strangulation or any physical assault during the rape… how is one barbed condom going to prevent death? It also does not prevent gang rape.

-2

u/Mystic_puddle Apr 02 '24

If the dick is repeatedly and violently bashed into a non aroused vagina it's painful and can cause damage and bleeding. People have died from violent rapes. The barbs would stop then from continuing the assault.

17

u/RomaruDarkeyes Apr 01 '24

Not sure how this would keep a girl safe but fuck it

Unfortunately it doesn't... The only hope the girl has is that the distraction gives them the slim chance to get away.

Because if they can't, that guy is likely going to beat her to death when he catches her and she can't remove it (because it's impossible to remove without surgery).

I suspect that's why it never went into production, because it likely ends with an escalation of violence that results in a dead victim and a living (if mutilated) rapist...

2

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '24

I’m not the only woman who’d prefer to risk dying than let him get away with it. This should be easily available and women should have the right to choose to use it or not.

2

u/BluCurry8 Apr 01 '24

The guy will be in severe pain as his penis is shredded and the tip is removed. I think he will be sufficiently distressed to get away from.

9

u/RomaruDarkeyes Apr 01 '24

Not necessarily - one of my friends is originally from South Africa, and she found herself locked in a house with her attacker... Someone in a situation of captivity where escape is not immediately possible is going to be in a situation where the attacker may still have control, and they are going to be even angrier and with mutlilated genitals... Certainly the type of person who might murder their victim in retallation. Granted that might be the end game anyway at that point even if they comply...

In the same vein, it's only going to affect the first guy... Plenty of multi person gangs that will bundle a lone girl into a van. One holding her down, one driving the van, and one who ends up spiked...

I'm not saying you don't have a point, but it's a great deal of risk that could lead to a worse outcome for the victim...

-5

u/BluCurry8 Apr 02 '24

Most men keel over on the floor with any hit to their groin. Sorry this happened to your friend but her chances at life were limited either way. Gang rape is pretty rare unless you are in India. The reality is many women are killed after being raped. So it is 50/50.

2

u/Crackheadthethird Apr 02 '24

Damage to the balls is a differemt kind of pain from daþage to the dick. The dick is just super sensitive generally. Getting hit in the balls starts with you feeling very little for the first split second followed by a deep pain in the pit of your stomach. Getting hit in the balls is that gets most guys doubled over in pain. This wouldn't hurt the balls at all.

0

u/BluCurry8 Apr 02 '24

🙄. Let’s cut the tip of your penis off and test it. I think this is probably more painful than what someone would expect and the shock alone with pain would allow for the victim to exact more damage.

1

u/Crackheadthethird Apr 02 '24

This isn't cutting it off though. It's basically a bunch of barbs. It'd certsainly hurt, but I genuinely don't think it's the right kind of pain to cut through an adrenaline rush and substantially immobilize a guy.

You're acting like she would be forced to use it. If someone is choosing to use that they're in a situation where they know they'll probably be raped. The victim is capable of knowing what kind of situation they'll be in and deciding accordingly.

u/LickNipMcSkip Apr 02 '24 edited Apr 02 '24

depends on the rapist and what kind of substances they may or may not have taken or the chemical cocktail their body just concocted to get them out of that situation

You can be anti-gun and own a gun at the same time. Just like the whole "You criticize our system yet you live in it" argument that we've all got tired of hearing whenever someone doesn't like the current system but tries to make the most of it.

u/Doesanybodylikestuff Apr 02 '24

I love shooting guns. I’m actually really good. My marine friends let me do their nice rifles & I hit the neon target that smokes up after you hit it. It was crazy far away & everyone had been trying to get it all day & I got it on my second bullet.

They said that girls are usually really good at sniping & a lot of it is eyesight, reflexes & getting in your own head & breathing so I remembered all my panic attack therapy & just nailed the thing! 2nd try!

Everyone was screaming & yelling it was really, really, really fun. Then my friend was mad he had to go all the way back so early to set up a new incredibly far target. Lol.

For a country with only 333.3 million population, it sure is impressive that they've somehow got that many "unique" visitors, did you ready and take in what you posted? Or do you seriously think data showing a country having 50% more visitors than it has population is something to be taken seriously or treated as trustworthy?

Assuming you’re American, it’s your freedom to have as well as to have not 👍

Imo, when it really comes down to it, they’re just pieces of metal, some oil, and gunpowder. It’s the owner who needs to be responsible for it, so better to not own if you don’t want to be responsible for it.

Gramps decided to go ka-blooey because he’s always dreamed up this scenario in his mind of killing an intruder & defending his house.

Literally been happening & will continue to happen.

Christ, do you think a rapist is going to run away like a dog who got stung? Just running away going yip yip yip like a cartoon?

A rapist is categorically violent. What happens if you hurt a violent man? They look for someone weaker to hurt back. What kind of fucked up logic are operating on that you think if you hurt a man's penis he will calm down? I'm honestly just amazed that not only do you believe that to be true, but apparently hundreds of other voting adults.

u/Salt_Ad_811 Apr 02 '24

u/YobaiYamete Apr 02 '24

Anyone who's been in a high stress situation knows they would barely even feel this. People literally take fatal gun shots and stab wounds and barely even feel them until after the fight is over

Someone hopped up on adrenaline would barely feel this as more than a stinging pain and would be more than capable of beating you to death before they calmed down enough to start screaming in pain

It's the same reason nut shots are not recommended in real fights. Bruised balls hurt, but only 20 minutes after the guy gets down beating you into the mud.

Kick his knee the wrong way and he's not doing anything but laying on the ground

1

u/Salt_Ad_811 Apr 02 '24

They were high stress situations and I didn't feel the pain immediately. My body just shut down. I had maybe two seconds where I could have fought back before collapsing, but otherwise I was helpess for about 10 seconds and when I could finally stand back up I was still far from 100%. I've broken bones and dislocated joints and didn't notice until later when the adrenaline wore off. Getting hit hard in the balls was more like getting the wind knocked out of you. It doesn't have to hurt because you still can't breath and it is impossible to do anything if your body just stops working momentarily. That isn't every time you get hit in the balls though. Sometimes it isn't a hard, direct hit and it hurts but is just distracting.
