Self Defense Gear For Women

By Lena Stephenson


When a woman would go home late, she always has to be very careful because there are a lot of evil men lurking in the streets ready to mug them. So if one would want to feel safe when she walks down a dark road, then probably the best thing that she should do would be to buy some self defense gear. If one does not know about these items, here is a list of some of them.

Now probably the most popular among the ladies would be the pepper spray because it is the most common self defense item. Now this is simply a spray filled with chemical ingredients that is mixed with some chili peppers inside. Of course it is easy to use as all one has to do is pull it out and spray some at an attacker to bring him down.

Of course there is another variation that one can use which is more expensive but of course more effective. Now this variant is known as the tear gas and is actually more effective than the ordinary can of pepper spray. If an attacker will take even one squirt of this tear gas, he will definitely fall to his knees and start crying.

Now if one does not like to buy a spray, then she can always buy a stun gun or more popularly known as the taser. Now the taser is great because they all come in different variants depending on what the buyer wants. Of course the normal one is just rectangular and it can shock an attacker really bad.

Now as stated above, there are a lot of variations of the taser depending on what the buyer wants. One very popular one is the lipstick taser which does look like an actual lipstick. The great thing about this one is that it that it does not look at all like a taser which means that if an attacker strikes, he will not expect to get electrocuted.

Of course there are going to be some instances when one will not be able to pull out a taser or a pepper spray. So the best thing to do would be to carry a weapon that can be used for striking the opponent right away. The best one would of course be the retractable metal baton that can be used to hit assailants.

Of course there would also probably be a time wherein an attacker has held her in a lock or probably in a mount position. Now for this, she would need a weapon that can hit at a short range and the best weapon for that would be the kubaton. Now the kubaton is a metal pen like gadget that can be used to hit a person in a weak point with a lot of force.

Now for the women out there who always work late, these weapons can definitely be very useful. Of course one has to make sure that she is very careful when she would use those weapons. If she is not careful, then she could actually be apprehended for misuse of self defense weapons.
