Best way to defend yourself is being a fast runner. Not saying people should not be how to fight, it's good exercise and can help a lot.

As a man, I can tell you that we just don't show it or talk about it that much, but unless I only know a particular brand of very scared men.

I agree with the general idea that women need to learn how to fight, unfortunately even a well trained person has an extremely hard time fighting of an unexpected attack from a bigger and stronger attacker which is the case most of the time.

Why not?

As a fellow pink stuff liking man, all I can say is welcome to the pink weapon club, you can get anything pink these days the first pink weapon I got was a hunting knife like this.

Don't agree with the whole premise of the article that somehow making self defense products that are more feminine styled which a lot of women like, is normalizing the sort of things you need self defense products for in the first place.

You might be right.

Kinda sad that they want to blame the global scope of their company on the issue of censoring breasts when we all know it's about the strange relationship that America has with nudity and the female form in general, not to mention them not wanting to risk a single advertisement dollar passing them by, when they…

Actually the positive outlook on sex is one of the reasons I come to this site, it's extremely refreshing to see a Feminist space or even female oriented space that is positive and open about sex and even sex work.

Well the biggest issue I have with their kind of feminism is their stance on sex work and sex workers, to them it's rape which means it should be illegal, now we all know how making something illegal works really well, and definitely helps the sex workers, so in order to make it seem like they care about the sex…

Well that is the way it works unfortunately especially in the EU, 20 years ago I was a feminist, now I am not anymore because I don't share the ideals of the kind of Swedish feminism that is top dog in the EU, and I don't want people to associate me with them, kinda sad actually.

Hey I am right there with you I don't care what is done with my body after death as long as it doesn't make my death more painful to my loved ones.

I am an organ donor, and I give blood as often as I can.

Just imagine that sailor moon was Genndy's first show, it might have looked close enough to this.

It's not that unlikely, it looks like Genndy's Tartakovaky's cartoon style which is from about the same time period.

This should be a reminder to people, why you shouldn't post everything you think on twitter and facebook, anything you say can and will be used against you.

Also with rape jokes, it's not women only women who can be deeply offended by it plenty of men, have been molested, or have family members who have gone through rape, so it would be really hard to tell who is and is not offended by a rape joke, might be one of the reasons why rape jokes are not really common where I…

Is she actually being attacked for being a women, or is this one of those Sarah Palin types of situations where she says the stupidest shit imaginable, and when people point out how stupid the shit she says is, she just screams SEXISM!

Well yeah bros probably don't make rape jokes or any jokes for the social commentary value, and at that point as I said you or anyone else can and maybe even should call them out, for me the line is drawn if they make offensive jokes in public next to somebody that could be offended by it, like making fat jokes…

Well we did have victim blaming too, which is a bit different from "not all drivers", also it has a lot of validity bikers and cyclists are terrible at adhering to the rules of the road, still these campaigns are needed because some people tend to forget that the one controlling 2 tonnes of steel should be the one…
