SarahMC and I had the same “OMG” response when we saw this in the Washington Post.
Montgomery County police have released surveillance photos of a man they say dragged a woman into the woods in Aspen Hill and sexually assaulted her – until she halted the attack with a bite.
The suspect received a “severe laceration” during the assault last week, said Cpl. Dan Friz, a police spokesman. The suspect remains at large. Police released photos Wednesday hoping someone will recognize him.
The case goes back to Oct. 26, just after 11 p.m., when officers were called to the area of Connecticut Avenue and Independence Street. The 30-year-old victim told police that she was able to get away after fending off the attacker by biting him on the penis.
Me: “I hope she bit it clean off.”
SarahMC: “God, I hope so too.”
I hope he’s not HIV positive. And yeah, I hope she bit it off and spat it in his face.
Vagina Dentata, FTW!!!
That’s one thing I’ve never understood about the concept that giving a man oral sex is a submissive act. Mouths usually have teeth, and human beings, whether carnivorous or not, have teeth that can process meat. The receiver is thus at a disadvantage, what with vulnerable parts exposed to sharp teeth.
But that is the beauty of the patriarchy — turning lies into truth.
Good for that woman! And I hope when they catch this dude that they do bite molds and get him with forensics.

I feel you’re straying dangerously toward a tone of blaming there. Consensual oral sex is not what is being discussed here and it’s disingenous to compare it to an non consensual sex act…
We have no idea what kind of threats and/or violence other women face when being forced to perform oral sex and whether they would feel it is more of a risk to use to their teeth on their assailant than not.
Blaming was never my intention, please believe me.
I would never judge a woman for doing whatever she needs to do to survive a sexual assault.
I’m very sorry.
My question above was more along the lines of wondering why certain things are framed as dominant/submissive when they can be seen differently, such as that penetration is always seen as dominant, while being penetrated is submissive. Why is that? Right, the patriarchy.
And I’m still glad she bit him, and that she was in a circumstance where she could. He deserved it, and more.

All I can say to her, is you go, girl.
