I’m not really celebrating yet as researchers at Tel Aviv University develop a strip that can detect the date rape drug (GHB and ketamine) used by males to knock out women then rape them. Wouldn’t the hundreds of thousands of dollars in research be better spent on teaching boys how to respect girls and stop raping them? Once agin we have told women they must buy the strip and protect themselves, because our society is not quite ready to tell men to stop violating women. I suspect if it were boys being raped, those in power (politicians and those funding research) might find more appropriate ways to deal with the problem.
