Women’s Self Defense Against Sexual Assault
I am a 5th Degree Black Belt in a Japanese style of Karate. I occasionally teach a self defense class to women in my area. The following are my notes from my basic class. Hopefully they will be of some use to you.
This course is not intended to make you paranoid; your chances of being attacked in a particular situation are very small. However, you do need to be aware that it can happen. Every two minutes, someone in the U.S. is sexually assaulted. One out of every six American women has been the victim of a sexual assault in their lifetime. Statistics show that any woman, young or old can be the victim of a sexual attack. Two thirds of the attacks are committed by someone the victim knows, at least casually. Many assaults are never reported.
Let’s talk about how women can avoid being attacked. Awareness is always the first step in being prepared. At the end of this class I want you to be better prepared to prevent assaults from happening in the first place, and better prepared to survive one if it happens to you.
Q. What is the most important thing you can do to not become the victim of an attack by a predator?
A. Don’t put your self in the position of being attacked in the first place.
Let’s take situation that could happen in real life – to someone who is blissfully unaware that she could be a victim. As you read through this scenario, see if you can determine what this women is doing wrong which will leave her vulnerable to an assault.
A woman normally works regular hours in downtown office building. She usually gets off around 4:30 so she usually walk to her car in a nearby parking garage a couple of blocks in the daylight when there are usually a lot of people around.
Lately, however, her workload has increased dramatically and she been working nearly late every night on a big project. Often she feels that she could work all night and still not get everything done, but she has her limits and has been routinely knocking off at about 8:00 every night.
Every evening at about that time she walks, in her high heels, a couple dark, usually deserted city blocks from her work place to the deck where she parks her car.
Note: this article is not about blaming for sexual assaults. It is about how to avoid making yourself easy prey for the cowards who are responsible for assualts and what to do if you are assaults. It is knowledge that could save your life.

1. Yes, it's important to remember when an attack is the victim's fault.
Um... What?
And people who expect women to look both ways before crossing the street are the worst.
Can you believe they even teach that to little girls?

2. "Don't go out in public with those breast-things of yours, men just can't help themselves"
I don't know about going out into public but hanging out with Bill Clinton is definitely a cause for concern...
...but that's OK because we wouldn't want to infer Hillary hangs out with a rapist just to advance her own power agenda.

6. If you think this article is about blaming women for sexual assults - you haven't read the article
A sexual attack is never the the victims fault - but there are creatures out there with no souls who prey on women and they are cowards who almost always go after the easiest victims who present the least danger to themselves. Part of the course teaches how not to be an easy prey. The rest teaches what to do if you are attacked. I have lengthened the quotes from the article to make it clear that this is not an article blaming women for assaults on their bodies. It is about how to avoid situations where these cowards are more likely to attack.
Perhaps instead of being dismissive you could learn something that could save your life.
You're an idiot if you expect a different result.

9. No, it may not have been the intent of the article
... however, it is the message that is implied.

Do not go out alone .... male family members may serve as chaperons.
Do not dress provocatively .... wear loose fitting clothes (draping fabric) that cover the silhouette of your body completely, wear scarves and draping fabric to cover your hair and maybe even your face.
Do not work .... except in family businesses where (once again) male family members may serve as chaperons
Do not live alone .... live with male family members ....

Funny how their attitude would change if someone was attacked for carrying a picture of muhammed covered in pig shit outside a mosque.

I'm not sure why the OP even posted this. There are NO women at the DUmp in danger of being sexually assualted. A group of women more homelier than DUmp women simply does not exist.

Stevenumbers is another issue altogether. Steve numbers would screw anything with a hole: light sockets, bird houses, and even the hole a coffee cup handle makes.

Going to a hole-in-the-wall diner would take on an entirely different meaning if stevenumbers were in attendance.

Sure would! Gives a whole new meaning to 'greasy spoon', too.

OK dummies. Perky gonna 'splain it to you. Gonna use terms even you idiots can understand.
You dummies got this big bag of weed. So are you dummies gonna go walking around flaunting that big bag of weed in the middle of the night in the bad part of town?
No? Same thing. Women walking around at night in a big city are a target for obumbles sons. Simple fact of life. Obumbles sons are not going to target a large male, with a pistol strapped to his side. Why? Because Obumbles sons are not going to put their precious little asses in danger. Probably be the same if a female was open carrying.
That is one of the reasons WV has a low crime rate. Obumbles sons know they are more than likely to get their ass shot off around here because everyone carries. They usually stick to killing each other over drug deals and the cops throw the survivor in prison for the rest of his life. Every now and again one will forget and go after a regular person, get his ass shot off, and the cops let the person go after an investigation. The surviving family know better than to pull a Ferguson cause they will join the dead perp in the afterlife.
We simply do not tolerate that bullshit here and it shows in our crime rate.

Plus, you have all of those old mine shafts.
Great places to drop a body.

In principle, a woman should be able to stroll through Central Park NYC or Hunter's Point SF wearing nothing but an iPhone 6S+ and Beats headphones and not be bothered by anything more than the weather. In reality, only some of DU's females would have a chance of finishing that stroll, unbothered.

This sounds like doctrine right out of the khalifate, sharia, and the quran.

Leftists are perpetual victims. Anything that does not promote victimhood is bad for them.

They take turns being the victims and the perpetrators, and then the rescuers.
