Women should definitely take a self defense course. It will give you a false self confidence that might actually work for you.

Sometimes your attitude will keep you from being victimized even if you don't have the ability to back it up.

Don't get too confident in your self defense course. Thee is abig difference between being taught some moves and then executing those moves in a violent confrontation.

I have seen multi year martial artists freeze when confronted with a violent situation let alone a girl that has had an abreviated feel good self defense class.

If someone asks you for your money, give it to them. If they want to take you somwhere, fight beserk style.

For those of you with pepper spray etc, how many canisters have you gone through in practice?

In order for the spray to be very effective for you, you would have to shoot it at least dozens of times at various targets.

ITs naive to assume that you are going to burst out like a marksman when you may have only squirted the thing a couple times before.

Also, get one of those screaming noise things. They can be a good deterrant also.
