@wordsmith –

Thank you very, very much for that video. I loved it. Strange as that sounds. *worries about her own sanity*

Anyways…

I agree with pretty much everything he says. Also laughed my head off at that moved Catwoman did. Really? A stiletto on the wall has him pinned? All he would have to do is push you! You’re balancing on one leg!

This video says what I’ve always known. I cannot beat guys. Like, any of them. Yes, okay, there are some women who could beat some guys, but… not me. I’m in the smaller range of grown up people, and I’m not physically strong, so that means I get beat. Every time.

Which is also one of the reasons those situations with unwanted attention are not pleasant and downright scary. I know, I know I could never hold them off or beat them if they truly wanted to cause me harm. A couple self defense moves from Youtube isn’t going to do anything.

Which is also why I appreciate having guy friends so much. They’re a security presence that I’m grateful for. Okay, maybe  my eighteen-year-old brother doesn’t know anything about fighting, self-defense, or anything like that, but he’d have a much, much better chance than I would at fighting someone off. So I try never to go somewhere alone like that. Or if not with a guy, with at the VERY LEAST one other girl, preferably more, because one guy isn’t likely to try to hurt two girls at once.

Also… laughed my head off at his mentioning our strength… “With a bat of your eyelashes, you could have a hundred dudes fighting to the death for you.”

Not quite sure that’s true for me, but it was funny.

Thanks again for sharing this!
