What?!? It makes just as much as sense as this:
A leading Malaysian Muslim cleric has suggested that all women should be fitted with chastity belts as a deterrent to rape and incest, a news report said Friday.
Abu Hassan Al-Hafiz, an influential cleric from the northeastern Terengganu state, said that women were most safe from sexual predators if they donned some form of barrier to their sexual organs.
‘We have even come across a number of unusual sex cases, where even senior citizens and children are not spared. The best way to avert sex perpetrators is to wear protection,’ Abu Hassan said in a sermon late Thursday, quoted by the Star daily.
‘My intention is not to offend women but to safeguard them from sex maniacs. Besides, husbands could also feel more secure, if you know what I mean.’
Abu Hassan said that the practise of women wearing chastity belts in Malaysia could be traced to as recent as the mid-1960s.
And of course, it’s always the behaviour of women that must be restricted, never the behaviour of men . I look forward to the day where we suggest - in complete seriousness – that all potential victims of pick pocketing be fitted with a device that prevents the most ardent of thiefs from making off with their wallets.

Um, it couldn’t possibly be the medieval way that sex is treated in Islamic societies. I guess the only way to deal with rape among people with a medieval mentality is with more medieval mentality.
If they’re going to force women to use chastity belts, then men should be forced to wear the “gates of hell:”
