Always try to flight before fight, you never know what the attacker will have on them (knives, guns etc). If you are leaving the house early in the mourning or late at night try to travel in groups.

These are some great tips. Many years ago I did Karate and the basic tips you mentioned here are always the main focus in self defense. Whilst they teach you to ‘fight’ if necessary, the main focus is giving yourself enough space to ‘get away’. Everyone should know these tips and revisit them regularly!!

In reply to LenaJeanne. I'm so sorry to hear this! I hope you have recovered well. I pray it never happens to you again.

In reply to Mel Cole. True--so if they are protecting the family jewels, go for the eyes, nose, throat or knees. If you do decide to carry a defense spray, make sure you've practiced getting to it. It won't do you any good buried in the bottom of your purse if you are taken by surprise. I keep mine in my jacket pocket in the colder months and in the cell phone pocket of my purse in the summer.

This is a great article! Unfortunately, I am already an “unnatractive target” being that I am 5’4″ and almost 200 lbs. It’s all pure muscle though!

I am still aware and worried though. I agree completely that you should practice these skills, especially with guns, mace and stun guns. My husband lets me pepper spray him and stun gun him in the yard so I can be prepared. The neighbors love the show . . .

I also keep a machete in my car, because it’s scary looking and I can swing it around like a ninja.

All women should know this. Hubby knows a little bit of martial arts so he teaches me and my daughter what to do just in case.

Thank you for sharing this information and it is always helpful to know something about self protection. I always have our door locked even when we are inside the vehicle. I am always paranoid that some crazy person might get in the vehicle and do harm to us or to our kids. Sometimes when we are traveling and my husband who’s driving has to go inside a building real quick, I always have the doors locked and with our car keys ready so if something happens I can also hit the alarm button to attract other people. I hope none of us will ever experience any type of danger, but just in case we know some things to protect ourselves. Us women definitely need to learn self-defense. Great article!

it seems every guy already knows what a woman will first hit which is in between the crotch. one of the things that a woman can bring is also a small spray defense bottle.
