Think Pink! Take Your Safety Into Your Own Hands


 


In a perfect world there would be no use to defend ones self because no one would ever get attacked, but that is a pipe dream. Don't allow yourself to become the victim take your peace of mind and security back and put it in your purse! There are a number of quality defense items that fit discreetly and safely into your bag, so you are prepared if things should ever get out of hand. Let's check out some of the options available.  

Pepper Spray and Mace Guns 
There are a ton of options in this category. A very popular option is the pepper shot key chain that fits onto any set of keys, so your protection is always at hand. It is simple to use just point and push. Mace guns can fit securely in your purse and come in a variety of colors pink, black, and silver. Neutralize a threat in style! There are also hidden pepper shots that look like ordinary tubes of lipstick. Prepare yourself for defense without tipping off your potential assailant that you are on to them.

Stun Guns 
These are great for non-lethal neutralization. When you get hit by a good stun you will go down. There are so many different options for stun guns. There are standard looking tasers, there are stuns that are disguised as tubes of lipstick and are rechargeable in any wall socket, there are others disguised as cellular phones, and there are stun batons. All of these options can discreetly fit into any standard purse. Safety is a big issue for women, but you don't have to be the victim. Take control for yourself, and be sure that you are prepared should a situation go south.

How the Warning Zap of a Stun Gun can Deter an Attacker


Even skilled martial artists agree it is better to deter an attacker than to use force. As such, carrying a stun gun is one of the best ways to prevent an attack, because the warning zap of a stun gun is often enough to scare off even the most diligent assailant.

Stun guns work by releasing high-voltage electricity into a person’s skin to temporarily disable the nerves and allow you time to escape. The shock from these guns is known to be incredibly painful, and is something most attackers would prefer to avoid. In some cases, simply showing a stun gun to an attacker is enough to send him or her packing.

If revealing a stun gun becomes ineffective, giving a warning zap shows you are serious about using your weapon, and can cause an assailant to begin rethinking his or her motives. Producing a warning zap will result in flashes of light, followed by a sizzling sound similar to that of someone being shocked. The combination of visual and sound effects leaves no room for doubt as to the effects of a stun gun. The odds of someone retreating after hearing a warning zap are extremely high because of that.

Stun guns are even more effective when they are cleverly concealed, as they provide you with an element of surprise that can give you the upper hand during an intense situation. For this reason, our stun guns that also look like flashlights or lipstick cases are extremely popular, especially among women.

The Key To Personal Safety Is Prevention... But You Still Need To Be Ready



Just because you don't go out looking for trouble doesn't mean it isn't going to find you. Everything from harassment to assault might be just around the next corner, waiting for a woman like you to walk on by. While it's a good idea to have a way to defend yourself (a taser, a stun gun, pepper spray, etc.) prevention is another tool in your arsenal that shouldn't be overlooked. Useful prevention tips include;

Situational Awareness
Perhaps the most important prevention skill anyone can have is being aware of their surroundings. While you don't need to be able to recall every detail of what's happening like a paranoid superhero, it's important to take a look around from time to time. Look at people, and measure the atmosphere of the room. If you don't notice there are four huge men wielding machetes and wearing hockey masks until you've already gotten your first drink it may be too late to make an easy, graceful exit.

Analyze The Problem
When you are confronted with a situation that could escalate you need to look at it and judge the threat level. Is the cat-caller on his front porch a harmless irritant, or is he going to be one of the harassers who will do more than talk? Will staying quiet and ignoring him solve the problem? Will saying something make it stop? While it isn't fair that the onus on safety is so often on women it is important to know what decision to make to de-escalate something before it gets out of hand.

Bring Back Up
It's a great idea to avoid going somewhere alone if possible. Whether it's another friend, or a group of them, there is safety in numbers. That isn't always a choice, but when you have the option it's a great way to prevent incidents before they occur.

Be Ready In Case You Can't Prevent Something
No matter how careful you are sooner or later a situation is likely to happen that you couldn't have prevented except by hiding under your bed behind a locked door. When these incidents come along it's important for a woman to have a method of self-defense that she's comfortable with, and that she is willing to use.
