In this article, you will discover the Rape aXe (anti-rape condom), a concept designed to deter rapists, and what we think about it. You will understand why the Rape aXe is not the anti-rape solution.
The Rape aXe was born following a shocking observation. The observation is that ¼ of South African women have been raped during their lifetime. This is why researcher Sonnet Ehlers/Bryant developed the Rape aXe.
The Rape aXe is for vaginal use only and is inserted like a female condom. It contains small razor blades designed to cut the aggressor during penetration.

The “Rape Axe” or anti-rape condom is not a medical device. Its effectiveness in protecting against STIs is not proven. It therefore cannot be called a condom.
Sexual penetration being the last stage of rape, it does not fight against rape. It is only intended for women. What protection is there if there is anal penetration or forced fellatio?
Given the injuries caused to the aggressor, the “Rape Axe” would be more a deterrent weapon than a rape prevention device. Moreover, it turns out that it can also cause injuries to the rape victim.
The Rape Axe raises another problem. The notion of rape goes beyond non-consensual sexual acts: an attack on a woman's integrity is rape. The best way to fight against rape is simply to respect the integrity of others.
