Anti rape clothing

[freyasnow]

This clothing cannot be taken off by anyone other than the wearer, even if the wearer is unconscious. It cannot be cut or torn.

Does anyone have an opinion on this? I know that there is the whole argument about what the victim is wearing making no difference, but if the rapist literally cannot get the victim's clothes off, would that reduce the likelihood of some kinds of rape? Obviously it makes no difference if the victim is forced to undress.

I haven't watched the video but it reminds me of that case in ?Italy? where the woman was wearing skinny jeans and the court deemed that the man was not guilty as skinny jeans are difficult to remove so she must have helped therefore consent.

Always blame the victim, right?

They also look extremely uncomfortable if you are anything over a size 8. To make them tight enough you'd have to have them digging in.

God that's awful, Nice.

WTAF!?

maybe they should make all men wear them on their hands and penises?

and are women expected to wear these things over their mouths too?

I think this is pretty effective anti-rape clothing

If above is ineffective, try this

I am joking about the 2nd one...

"First date tonight with that lovely, hot guy from work! - better look out my anti-rape pants"

There was an article about it in the Guardian.

One of the designers has been sexually assaulted several times but her clothing made it difficult for her assailant. That gave her the idea.

"Curious about the motives of the AR Wear designers, I decided to contact them. Called Yuval and Ruth (they won't share their surnames), the latter has been a victim of multiple sexual assaults, awful experiences which gave her the idea for the underwear. "I had been subjected to two attempted rapes, one at the age of 18 and one in my late 20s," she says. "In both cases, delay had kept the rapes from being completed. In the first case, I had fought off my attacker until he heard noises nearby and broke off the attack. In the second case, my attacker had me around the throat with one hand and with the other hand somehow managed to pull down my tight jeans and underwear while throwing me to the ground. I started screaming and something caused my attacker to run off. The memory of how he had pulled down my clothing so quickly made me believe that AR Wear could be effective at preventing some rapes by causing delay."

They also attempt to acknowledge that their product isn't part of the long-term solution on their website. "As long as sexual predators continue to populate our world, AR Wear would like to provide products to women and girls that will offer better protection against some attempted rapes while the work of changing society's rape culture moves forward."
