Girls, what are some self defense techniques you use?

[laraWM]

Fortunately never had to use one, but we still need to know some as girls

[NicoleJS]

Yeah if I had to resort to one and I had no weapon or anything I’d probably kick him in the nuts and also go after his eyes

I’m pretty sure either one of those will bring a guy down

[laraWM]

@NicoleJS Yes two main weakspots, you'd probably be able to run away but not sure hitting the eyes could bring someone down though

[NicoleJS]

Well it’d probably blind them long enough to run away
I should probably stick to kicking them in the balls tho at least I know that works

[Asker]

Can confirm Lara hitting me in the eyes won’t bring me down but if I get kicked in the nuts I’m dropping like a sack of rocks

[Asker]

The sack part of that was totally unintentional TOOOOOOTALLY

[laraWM]

So we'll put it at the top of the list 😅

I did judo growing up so I know that as a woman im not going to be able to beat a guy up, maybe protect myself and possibly avoid rape until I can escape.

My husband gave me a revolver

[NicoleJS]

We love women who own guns for self defense in this house lmao

@NicoleJS one of the trainers of my old judo club was a black belt who competed in the Olympics. She got dominated by the male white belts.

This made me stop and think that I don't of any techniques and I'm small...

[NicoleJS]

Well you can kick them in the nuts I guess that tends to work out

[ShannynSteen]

That's true yeah, some guys are overprotective of their nuts and won't give you an opening but I guess that's why you should always try to catch them off guard

[NicoleJS]

Yeah but if you do get em it’s at least funny seeing their faces when you run away to safety
It’s like a little silver lining to that I guess but overall experiences like that still suck

[Asker]

Gonna be honest as a man I don’t even think of my balls 90% of the time

[ultimatum11]

thats a good point

[jazzy34]

Thankfully, I haven’t had to use any. But, I’m thinking of learning to shoot and getting a gun.

[NicoleJS]

There’s a couple

kick them in the nuts

gouge their eyes

have a knife or pepper spray and possibly gun

That’s really all I can do as a woman if a man wants to do me harm

[ultimatum11]

those are the best tactics for sure

[ultimatum11]

the ballS can also be grabbed if you get the chance
