Women" s Safety - Protect Yourself With Knowledge & Technology
Brains over brawn and technology over everything else. This day in age, innocent people--especially women--are victimized every second of every day. But there are steps you can take to protect yourself using knowledge and technology. Notice which comes first there; it's important to realize that you have the choice to control much of your own safety.
Since the dawn of time, women have had the under-hand when it comes to physical strength. However, this has meant less and less as our society has become more "civilized" and our weapons more advanced. Women should embrace this fact and take the steps necessary to protect themselves. In addition to the multitude of products out there, I believe all women should take at least a beginner self-defense course.
One thing that has NOT changed is that your most powerful weapon is still your mind. To be safe and avoid becoming a victim, think about the situations you put yourself in on a daily basis. Where do you park your car? Where do you go for runs? Do you go out alone or in groups? When do you go out? What type of bar do you go to? These are simple questions with very complex implications.
What HAS changed? The tools that women can use to defend themselves and the ease to acquire these tools. From Lip Stick Pepper Spray to Key Chain Alarms. From the Pretender 950,000 Volt Cell Phone Stun Gun to the Stun Master 800,000 Volt Telescopic Stun Baton. From the TASER C2 with Laser Sight to the Inter-galactic Laser Death Ray. OK that last one is science fiction, but I hope you're getting the point.
The options available make it comfortable, convenient, and covert to stay safe, so people are out of excuses. There are countless things that women can do to protect themselves. But start simple: Consider the decisions you make on a daily basis that could put yourself in harms way. Then consider taking steps to protect yourself from that and from the dangers you can't predict. Take your safety into your own hands.
