subject: Women's Self Defense Products [print this page] Taking a walk should not be a traumatic experience. It should be a calm, pleasant, and relaxing experience. But for a female, it can be a time of anxiety. Ever since a female is little, she is told to be cautious, always look around, do not go anywhere without an adult or friend or just stay home. The apprehension instilled in young girls continues throughout their lives. They have never been taught about women's self defense products, only fear. I remember going late at night to get a fever reducer for my sick son. I pulled into the parking lot and proceeded to follow the "ritual". I looked for a lit spot near the door. I made sure that I was not parked next to a van without windows. I made sure that I had my purse and keys in my hand. But my keys had to be position that if someone came close enough I could stab them. And I had to have everything in my hands in a fashion that I could lock and unlock the door quickly while I made a confident looking dash to the store door.
Now people can teach their daughters, nieces and sisters that personal safety devices can provide safety and reduce the anxiety and constant sense of heightened awareness. Something as simple as taking a walk, can be relaxing again. A Mace Canine Repellant is a simple, humane way to protect yourself. It will provide the time you need to move away and will not harm the animal. You can take a walk, jog, or bike all while carrying defense spray for women.
Young girls can be told that a whistle is a wonderful companion. The Electronic Pocket Whistle allows the person to relax. It does not require the person to take the time to blow it. Simply pressing a button emits a loud, shrill sound. It emits a 120db sound that lasts as long as you press the button.

It is time to start supporting our young girls in a way that provides empowerment and not fear. Women's self defense products can enable women the right of comfort and ease. They should be raised with confidence and intelligence. Girls need to understand that crime is around them. But they should be taught how to manage it and deal with it on their terms. They need to own the moment and know how to turn the tables on the miserable person that is attempting to take a piece of their dignity.
