A Women-Self-Defence e-book a need for Women!

Common-Sense and Self-Defence is an e-book designed to help women avoid the trauma of a sexual assault or rape.

It is a handbook of Common-Sense and Self-Defence techniques that can be used effectively by females of all ages.

We do not propose to have an answer for every conceivable situation that may occur.

Every would-be assailant, every potential victim, and every environment where an attack takes place contains its own set of unique situational advantages and disadvantages.

However, we do suggest that by adapting some Common-Sense Techniques into her life, and by becoming aware of her mental and physical potential, women-self-defence knowledgeable can, in many cases, protect herself from sexual assault and rape.

In this book, we have set forth some easy to follow guidelines that when adapted into her individual lifestyle, will help a woman completely avoid the possibility of an assault.

We realize though, that women are assaulted even under the most cautious of conditions, and it is for these situations that we offer a number of Women-Self-Defence alternatives.

We do not advocate any particular technique for any specific situation.

As was stated earlier, every situation is unique, and as such, a woman's personality and physical ability may lead her to apply a specific technique, while a different technique may better serve another woman under very similar circumstances.

Our sections on Common-Sense prevention techniques, The Rape Strategy, and the presentation of Self-Defense techniques are the results of our years teaching the martial arts and conducting Self-Defense Seminars for Women.

Our approach to self-defense is straightforward and highly effective.

We do not teach flashy, complicated techniques that require years of training to master, but instead we advocate the utilization of a few, easy to understand movements.

We do not stress the use of follow-up techniques that are meant to disarm or disable an attacker.

We emphasize the execution of very powerful, effective techniques that may afford a woman the opportunity to escape unharmed.

The word "Rapist" is used quite conservatively throughout this text to describe a man who uses physical force or the threat of force to obtain or try to obtain sexual intercourse or oral sex with a woman.

THE PREVALENCE OF SEXUAL AGGRESSION AND RAPE

From the early 1980's to the present, incidents of Rape in the United States increased at four times the overall crime rate, and "has reached epidemic proportions" according to a report released by Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., D-Delaware.

However, due to the fact that rape and other forms of sexual assault often go unreported, estimates push the actual number of rapes well over 2 million annually.

Considering only the approximate six to seven percent of rapes that are reported to authorities each year, almost 300 women are raped every day, that's twelve every hour, which means that every five minutes a woman is raped in this country.

Sexual assault and rape can be divided into a variety of categories that include acquaintance or date rape, spousal rape, stranger rape, and victimization by multiple attackers, most often referred to as gang rape.

One recent university study took a close look at the prevalence of sexual assault and rape on university and college campuses.

Six hundred college men and women were asked about their most recent dating experiences and their worst experiences involving sexual aggression.

Their definition of sexual aggression involved any time a woman was forced to participate in acts against her will, ranging from kissing to intercourse.

Over 75 percent of the women and 50 percent of the men admitted to a sexually aggressive dating experience, with 15 percent of the women and 7 percent of the men reporting they had intercourse against the woman's will.

Studies report that one out of every four college women will be sexually assaulted on a college campus, with only about 8 one out of ten reporting the incident. The attacker will be a fellow student 80 percent of the time, and a dormitory room or fraternity house is the most common place for an attack to occur.

Another report by two university researchers cites a number of studies regarding the sexual assault of college women. Their study of 174 college sorority women revealed that 17 percent of the students surveyed, reported sexual assault through penetration, with three respondents reporting unwanted penetration by two or more men.

Thirteen percent of the respondents had experienced forced attempted intercourse while on a university date, with four of the women reporting a forced rape completion.

These statistical findings conform to an earlier study, which revealed that 15 percent of sophomore and junior college women had been forced to have sex against their will.

In 1985, the Denver Post reported that among undergraduate women interviewed, almost 50 percent had been touched, held, or kissed against their will, while 20 percent had been forced to have sexual relations while on a date.

Another university study revealed that the gross majority of rapes and sexual assaults against women were experienced while of college age, 94 and 92 percent respectively.

Recent newspaper and magazine articles reflect the fact that more and more young girls between the ages of 14 to 19 are experiencing the trauma of a sexual assault or rape.

In the majority of these cases the assailant is an acquaintance of the victim, and is very often a relative.

The bottom line is that sexual assault and rape does not respect any boundaries of age, race, religion, or socioeconomic status.

As stated so clearly by Senator Biden, Jr., Rape in the United States has indeed, "reached epidemic proportions."

The purpose of the following common-sense prevention techniques is to help you along in that direction, start applying them today. Women-Self-Defence and common-sense surly makes sense.

• LOCK YOUR DOORS AND WINDOWS

  This really sounds too easy, but it is surprising at the number of people who walk out of their house every day without locking their front door.

  Your doors and windows are your first line of defense against a potential sexual assault. Statistics show that most rapes take place in the woman's home or apartment. Protect yourself accordingly.

  Make certain that you have dead-bolt locks on all of your doors that lead outside. Be aware of who has extra keys. If your landlord insists on having a key in his possession, give it to him in a sealed envelope that you have signed across the seal. This way you will know if he enters your apartment without notice or without your permission.

  Don't hide keys outside; potential intruders know all the obvious places, as well as the not so obvious. If you have a sliding glass door, use a broken broomstick handle or a metal pipe as a wedge to keep the door securely closed.

  It's always a good idea to have a lock on your bedroom door as well, this way you are doubly protected as you sleep at night.

• NEVER OPEN YOUR DOOR FOR A STRANGER

  Never, under any circumstances, open your door to a stranger when you are home alone. This is advice that is offered so freely to children and yet so rarely practiced by adults.

  If someone is requiring assistance, tell him or her that you will be glad to make a phone call. If you are expecting someone whom you are not familiar with, such as a repairman, don't hesitate to ask for an identification card. If you are still not convinced, call his office for proper identification.

  Follow your instincts at all times, they are normally correct. Police officers are required to carry a picture identification card as well as their badge, do not accept their badge alone as adequate identification.

• USE YOUR NAME SAFELY

  Do not list your first name on your mailbox, in the phone book, on magazine subscriptions, credit card applications, etc. Always list two initials and then your last name.

  Using one initial with a last name has become commonplace for women, and is recognized as such by intruders. Using a nickname such as "Hoss," or "Moose," implies that a large man lives at your address and is an effective strategy that may deter a potential attacker.

• KEEP A NOISY WATCHDOG

  If at all possible, keep a small noisy watchdog. Any type of dog that has a loud and consistent bark for strangers is proven to deter criminals.

  One of the best watchdogs my family ever owned was a Miniature Schnauzer that my sister rescued from the humane society. This particular dog was a ferocious protector and I highly recommend the breed. This is a case where a dog.s bark may be as good as his bite.

  Convicted criminals consistently agree that when faced with a noisy, barking dog, they continued on their way in search of easier pickings.

• MAINTAIN YOUR AUTOMOBILE

  Maintain your automobile on a regular and consistent basis, service it as the manufacturer recommends. Find a mechanic or dealership that you trust and use their services regularly. Be aware of your gauges and what they represent, especially the gasoline gauge. Never, never let yourself be caught stranded on the road because you ran out of gas.

  Pick a sunny afternoon and practice changing the tire on your car. Reading through the instructions in the manual is not enough; you need to actually change the tire.

  All models are different, so be sure that you practice on your own car. In different types of automobiles the jack, the jack handle, and the tire are all stored in different locations. The chances are good that when you face a real-life tire-changing situation, it will be dark and raining.

  Don't wait until that happens to learn how to change a flat tire, practice today in your own driveway.

• SAFETY EQUIPMENT FOR YOUR AUTOMOBILE

  Keep a working flashlight in your car and periodically check the batteries. Keep a pair of battery cables in your car.

  In the event of an emergency on the road, you should be prepared to get your car running again as quickly as possible.

• FILE A "FLIGHT PLAN"

  File a "Flight Plan" with your friends or family whenever feasible. Let people know where you are going and when you expect to arrive back home.

  Be dependable. If you break down on the road or experience any kind of trouble that makes you late, you don't want your friends explaining to one another, "don't worry about her, she's always late."

  You want someone to come looking for you as soon as possible.

• AVOID "BAD" NEIGHBORHOODS

  Always avoid "bad" neighborhoods. Don't take unfamiliar shortcuts. If you don't show up at your planned destination and you took an unfamiliar route, no one will know where to start looking for you, and you cannot be sure of the availability of open businesses, and telephones.

  Don't drive through "bad" neighborhoods even if you are familiar with the territory, if you are late for work or an appointment, placing yourself in an unhealthy environment is not the right answer. It may work for you one time or even a dozen different times, but the first time you experience a break-down in a bad place, it may cost you more than being on time is worth.

• WHEN A BREAK-DOWN OCCURS

  Taking good care of your automobile will greatly reduce your chances of experiencing a mechanical breakdown on the road, but a car is a very complicated piece of machinery; and even considering preventive maintenance precautions you may still find yourself stranded on the road one night.

  If you find yourself in this predicament, remain calm. You have a variety of options at your disposal.

  If you are on a stretch of highway where there are no available telephones and for some reason you were unable to "file a flight plan," (therefore no one is going to come looking for you), an effective strategy is to open your car doors, raise your hood and trunk lid, tie a handkerchief to your antenna, and retreat to the edge of the trees where you are safely out of sight.

  Raising your hood and trunk, etc., is an obvious distress signal sent to passing motorists. Wait safely at the edge of the woods for a "friendly car" to stop and offer assistance. If an "unfriendly" car happens to stop, you simply remain hidden and safe.

  Trust your instincts. Should you decide to walk for help, keep off the shoulder of the road. If possible, walk along the edge of the trees, etc., revealing yourself only when you feel comfortable.

• PARKING YOUR CAR SAFELY
  
  
  When parking your car in a public parking lot such as at an apartment complex, a shopping center, a University, etc., always try to park in a well lit area if you will be returning to your vehicle after dark.

  This may prove to be an inconvenience, especially in rainy weather. Do it anyway.

  Don't park next to other cars, especially at night. In some of our major cities it has become popular for carjackers to wait for their victim underneath a parked car. When someone parks in the next space, the carjacker slices through the victim's Achilles tendon with a razor blade. The victim is unable to run for help, and is very lucky if the car is all that is taken.

• WATCH ME LEAVE

  When leaving a place of business after dark, ask someone to stand at the door and watch you walk to your car. This way they can be sure that you get into your car safely.

  When leaving your home, apartment, or dormitory, ask a family member or a roommate to do the same. Looking out for each other should become an expected courtesy among you, your family and your friends.

  This action is Women-Self-Defence in positive action.

• HAVE YOUR KEYS READY

  When walking to your car, always have your keys ready in your hand. This will keep you from having to hesitate at your car door as you fumble for the door key, and in the event of a confrontation, your keys can become a very effective weapon.

  Always glance into the backseat area before entering your car, this only takes a second and may save your life. Once inside your car, lock your doors immediately.

• CALL THE POLICE

  Call your local police station at the slightest hint of trouble. The police and fire departments are operated with tax dollars that you pay.

  Do not hesitate to call them and report anything that you feel is out of the ordinary and potentially dangerous to yourself or others.

  Women-Self-Defence is the marshalling of all avenues of safety at your disposal and our police force is your ally and partner.

  A strange car parked in front of your house may turn out to be innocent enough, but if it concerns you, it may also concern the local authorities.

  Police officers typically don't mind looking into a situation for someone, they would much rather prevent criminal activity then to deal with the results of a crime that may have been prevented by a telephone call.
