Girls, What option would you use in self-defence vs a guy?

[thatguyfromtoronto]

I thought of a scenario if you were to fight a guy 1 on 1 and he cornered you, what would you and why?

Poking him in the eye

Kicking him in the balls

Punching him in the face

[Vesuvius87]

It would depend if my life is really threatened at that moment or is he just being a jerk.
Poking in the eyes and hit in the knee caps is a better choice because if I go directly for a kick in the balls, the guy might pull his other leg to block it or I might missed... then I'm screwed.

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Word of advice, you have to fake seduce a guy and when his guard is down and he has a semi-hard on, then give a swift kick in the balls and punch him in the nose lol. Usually, a guy would expect a kick down there first by a female so you have to trick him first.

[fauchelevent]

Try to go for the eyes if I can. If he moves to block it, bring the knee up into his crotch. If he doesn't block it then yay, he can't see :P Obviously, this is all whilst thinking rationally, I'd probably be too scared to move or do any of that in reality, people kinda freeze up.

[thatguyfromtoronto]

don't be scared :-/

if you stood in front of a guy who was pissing you off, just picture yourself kicking a soccer ball for the win during gym class, that way the freeze up moment wouldn't be a factor

[TatyanaTheEmpress]

I would chop him in the neck: img.memesuper.com/...op-judo-chop-meme_400-212.gif
Out of your options, I guess poking him in the eyes would be the most efficient.

[TatyanaTheEmpress]

Thank you for MHO

[Prettygurl12]

Of those options? Depends on what he's doing.

I'm actually trained in defensive tactics so I'd most likely do something else entirely. Palm heel strike to the solar plexus. Strikes to the brachial plexus. Strike to the carotid artery.

Depends entirely on his actions, though. What's he doing? How is he approaching me? What did my dumb ass do to wind up cornered, anyhow?

[Anonymous]

Being raised the way I was I wouldn't be worried at all. The level of difficulty depends on the specific details but in the end I would probably win. And I have the advantage of them hesitating to strike a teen girl.

[fictionfanatic]

punch his nose kick groin and if that don't work kick his knee in and run

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Ladies! I said 1! not all 3 or 5 lol. Trust me, speaking as a guy who's been hit below the belt playing sports a few times, usually a strike to the groin on a guy is enough you don't need all the extra stuff lol.

[fictionfanatic]

I don't know i know a few guys who have been kicked there and it does not affect them when their adrenaline is going

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Then they probably are not really guys or they have protection on... jokes. I don't know I don't want to get into ball-physics 101 but usually when you kick and raise your foot further up that's when a guy will fall on the floor sounding like alvin from the chipmunks and yelling out the word bitch profusely at you :-o

[fictionfanatic]

Alright but for extra measure the other stuff but I guess kicking his knee in would be my go to cause then his leg is broke and he can't come after you that easily

[thatguyfromtoronto]

lol girls answering this question always need reassurance to make sure the guy is down lol. Yeah that's a proper move if you do it right, of course, you may tear his ACL if you straight kick him in the knee.

[fictionfanatic]

Haha ouch

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Now you're probably like, sweet! if a guy tries anything, I will kick him in the balls and then in his knee wear he tears his ACL. I gotta say that's a bad day at the office, guy comes home and say, mom.. I just got my ass kicked by a girl... the mom will probably laugh at him and be on your side by saying, "Well son, you shouldn't have annoyed her or tried to start something, she had to defend her territory"

[fictionfanatic]

Haha no only if I feel threatened by them

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Well, I don't know what you feel as threatened? I mean if I scared you by wearing a Freddy Krueger mask just for jokes would that be deemed as threatened?

[fictionfanatic]

no haha like if a guy was threatening me with the intentions to like hurt me or kidnap me or whatever then yeah karate kick and snap that leg

[Maxine_Payne]

How about... Brazilian Jiu Jitsu? Go all MMA out on his ass, rofl...

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Eh, if a girl knows MMA shit, I would not want to mess with her, I would just put my hands up as if to say, "yo, im good, have a good day". If you told me, no get your ass here! and fight me in the octagon! I would say, no I would never hit a girl lol.

[Maxine_Payne]

LOL... I was just saying. I don't actually know it but I've always been very interested in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and MMA ;)

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Well, you will need a sparring partner then and I could be that person. I mean I could just wear a football helmet and use bubble wrap around my body to help alleviate the pain. But see girls and women kick low so I should expect a kick below the belt and you would probably find humour in that especially if there's bubble wrap around there all you here is popping sounds :-/

You may say lmao, you okay dude? I think I popped something of yours. I'll be like nah it's just the wrap, it's okay keep going. Wait, how do I know your not just saying you haven't done it. What if I stepped into the octagon with you and you are like the female Brock Lesnar lol :-o

[Maxine_Payne]

"What if I stepped into the octagon with you and you are like the female Brock Lesnar?"

LOL, well, then, I'd have discovered that I have natural talent for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and that'd be an amazing discovery (on my part)!

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Ok, in that case, bring it on *shrugs shoulders*

[lovelyhoneybones]

Pepper spray or a taser. Obviously I would try my best to defend myself with my fists and feet, but that doesn't always work out.

[deraz24]

A kick or a punch whatever I feel is most effective at the time

[Dwiller924]

If he's sexually harrassing me, aim where he can no longer make babies. Other than that, it's a straight deck in the jaw.

[thatguyfromtoronto]

You know it shocks me that men have invented all these gizmos and gadgets but have never invented a pair of pants for males that have protection inside the material of the pants. That's a million dollar idea in my opinion, but knowing how guys and men are they would probably complain about how uncomfortable it is, kind of like how girls get annoyed with how certain bras feel. So I guess until then you can aim where he can no longer make babies and by me typing this... not going to lie, that makes me cringe a bit :-|

[Dwiller924]

Lol. You have a good point there.

[Anonymous]

Back of the knees if accessible. Knee caps are a good one, too.

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Yeah as a guy, I will be frank... it's probably much easier for a girl to take down a guy by aiming for his knees then to be successful aiming for his balls. The reason why I say that is because, when I think about a doctor who checks someone's reflexes by using a percussion hammer by tapping on the knee cap, even that sends a shock to move.

I think for girls who are in that situation is to do something where he can run after you, that's why I don't suggest punching a guy or aiming for his upper body unless you aim for the eyes. Or you can simply tell the guy, wow I would love to go out with you, he would reply, really? then say no and kick him below the belt *shrugs shoulders*

[Opinion Owner]

Lol, yeah. It's amazing how you can easily take down someone twice your size with some well placed maneuvers.

[thatguyfromtoronto]

Oh I know, I remember once when I was younger (probably 15) and there was a girl who was the same age and lived on my block, I was slightly taller than her. There were a bunch of us over in the backyard, with this slip and slide pool thing on the lawn. I remember I started bugging her and stood on the end of the slip and slide with my back turned against her. Well I guess she found the perfect opportunity to slide down to the end, left her foot at the right moment and kick me in the nether regions... not going to lie, my voice cracked and I don't think it was puberty related... ugh, girls.

[InsurmounTilda]

I was taught to break their elbows and/or knee caps
