Agreed, while rape is about power on a basic level, it is also fundamentally about sexual release. If you submit completly, then you are communicating to this man that not only can he get away with his actions, but he will be rewarded. This could easily creat a repeat offender. I think Dilbert's idea about the gonads is probably a good bet. Noonoo bear traps aside, that's the weakness of any man.

Don't forget also that many rape victims feel tremendous guilt about enjoying a rape on some level, and can be scarred for life. The fact is that rape is really complicated from a psychological standpoint. Any actions you might consider taking in this terrible situation should be carefully weighed.

The best way to stop a rape is to have someone walk you to your car. I walk a lot of my employees to their cars when I occasionally leave after dark, and I suspect that could deterr rapists.
