4. If the car pulls up to you run in the opposite direction.

5. Walk with your keys in your hands and keep a key between each finger

6. If they put you in the trunk kick out the headlights

7. If you get lost find a woman with a child. Never ask a man for help (this one was drilled)

[bando--grand-scamyon]

That scream fire piece of advice is literally life saving

8. Watch your shadows and reflections, especially if someone is walking behind you. A split second notice is better than none and will help you.

[gaylittlepieceofsh1t]

Yes this last one really saves lives y'all I do it all the time

[uncleromeo]

girls have to learn to view the world like international intelligence agents just to be safe walking down the street. smh.

[twilightt-fantasy]

(I’m an enby, but, frankly, this is helpful for anyone.)

[cryptidinks]

- always tell someone where youre at and an approx time when youll be back

[witcheshaven]

Add text replacement words in your phone if possible. Something short and memorable that you can send quickly to people in moments of emergencies.

E.g.

[whatchagonnadoabooouuutttit]

I f ing hate that we need to reblog this, people suck, but this will save lives.

DO NOT SCROLL PAST

Being female fucking sucks but yes this shit is important for everyone

Also, do not walk close to walls. It will be easier for someone so walk past you and push you against it or corner you.

If your gut is telling you to cross the street or change your path, do it. Don’t risk it. Your body knows.

If you can, buy a large umbrella and walk holding it. Studies say that predators are less likely to attempt an attack on someone that could fight back. Keys around your knuckles is fine but you’ll need to get very close to do damage. Umbrellas are more precise.

Avoid wearing headphones if you are alone on an empty street. Look aware.

Again: Stay. Away. From. Walls.

Entering an uber alone? Call your father (or anyone you trust) and say “hey dad! Yep, I’m almost there, I’m sending you the route.” outloud. Then proceed to send them the route so they can follow the uber drive. This will most likely intimidate the predator.

If you see someone in an uncomfortable or possibly dangerous situation, walk up to them and say “Betty, oh my god, I haven’t seen you in so long!”. If she gets slightly confused, you can whisper and let her know you’re trying to help and that she should follow along. Walk together to another station or away from where you are. The man will most likely not follow. I have done this one 2 times and can be very helpful.

If you are unsure she needs help, you can pass her a note saying something like “hey, I noticed this man beside you is making you uncomfortable. If you’d like help, fake a sneeze right now and I will come up to you and pretend we are friends.” This is a long note, but its an example. Be discrete. If she follows along, proceed with the previous tip. This is helpful when you’re in a crowded train and you notice harassment.

Help your sisters. Trust them. Trust yourself. Be safe.

[goodgirl81]

If you ever feel unsafe or need help, anyone is welcome to run upto me and ask me for help! I’ll go all mama bear and keep you safe!!!

I made this google doc covering 14 different self defense tips and tricks. it was made on January 15th, 2020 so it was before I decided I’d come back to tumblr jhjshdbjfh.

EVERY TIME I SEE THIS I REBLOG BECAUSE THIS IS SUPER IMPORTANT!!!!!

[lukewarmsodaa]

this is so fcking important

[quillsink]

AFAB nonbinary here, y’all please reblog, I’ve had this drilled into me as a kid and this will definitely help someone

[daydreaming-cheese-weasel]

also:

i was always told that the elbow is the sharpest point in your body, so use your elbows!!

to quote dwight schrute: “the eyes are the groin of the head”

im pretty sure that the nose is really sensitive so try to hit that. in a self defense class, they said to hold your hand like you’re carrying a plate (flat, palm up) and push upwards, bringing the bottom of your palm at the nose.

it doesn’t matter their gender, getting hit in the groin will always hurt like fuck.

[simpingforwillsolace-deactivate]

if someone holds you from behind, shove yoir elbow in their gut and then punch them i the nose when they relase you

NEVER tuck in your thumb if you’re making a fist. that way if you punch someone you’ll break your thumb. make a fist like this and punch with the part marked red.

you can knock someone out by punching them into the chin. the nose is also very sensitive and can be easily broken.

as someone said above, STAY AWAY FROM WALLS!

the knee and the elbow are the strongest parts of the body. and they are nicely angled for kicking somebody.

STAY SAFE EVERYONE, AND SHARE THIS!

[cassieschaosdimension]

And if you’re going to a new place like say university… ALWAYS WALK WITH A MALE FRIEND AT NIGHT ALWAYS WALK WITH A MALE FRIEND AT NIGHT!!! This has literally saved some of my friends lives as they’ve gone to university and I expect to be the same in a few months!

MALE FRIEND BOYFRIEND ALWAYS WALK WITH A MALE YOU TRUST!!!

[zeacat14]

The fact that we live in a world where it’s necessary to know this is appalling, but here we are

[thesleepingtaco]

IF YOU SCROLLED PAST , THEN GO BACK UP. THIS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN OTHER POSTS. GO READ IT AND REPOST IT.

[viva-1a-resistance]

always. reblog.

[chaoticaindica-deactivated20230]

The male friend tip has helped me countless times.

When in crowd, walk with your elbows out. Your elbows will act as a weapon against anyone trying to touch you inappropriately, also, hold your bags close to your chest.

Whenever ordering an Uber, especially if you live alone, never put in your actual address but a landmark at a walking distance to your place.

Whenever any stranger asks you where you live, say something along the lines of, “oh! just the lane opposite of spencers/seven-eleven/big bazaar or any other convenience store chain.

If you’re feeling afraid of going to the parking lot, ask a guard to accompany you or just ask them to get your vehicle for you. Better safe than sorry.

Whenever walking down a lonely street or any where you get that uncomfortable feeling, phone some one reliable and keep on talking to them until that you feel safe again.

Remember that even good changes can make us feel depressed, because, as creatures of habit, we're resistant to change. That doesn't mean that it wasn't the right choice.
