14) After the initial hit, always go for the goin. I know from a
particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy's parts
it isextremely painful. You might think that you'll anger the guy
and make him want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists
told our instructor is that they want a woman who will not cause a
lot of trouble. Start causing trouble, & he's out of there.
I know this is true, not from experience obviously but from being a witness on at least two occasions to guys convulsing in pain on the floor (usually having been hit by a girl). I have heard, though, that if you hit a guy in the groin you could just make him angry with you, and so the smart thing to do would be to go for the eyes. I mean, when you have something in your eye you automatically forget everything and start rubbing your eyes.
People who know me know that I am extremely paranoid and avoid all potentially dangerous situations when possible. Recently I had to walk at about midnight alone home, and it really is scary to think that any person around (not that there were that many) could grab you. Especially when you are 15 years old. Not something I like doing.
