Self-defense is both an instinct and a right, but self-defense using a using a gun endangers you and your loved ones unnecessarily. Self-defense is something that we all hope we’ll never have to do in our lives. Unfortunately, it is a fact of life and whether or not we figure in a scenario that requires us to do it, we should always be prepared.
This is one of the best ways to handle an emergency situation and we should never take this reality for granted. But before anything, to be able to protect ourselves against an attacker, we should learn how this person is likely to come on to us and what might be going on in his mind when he’s about to launch his evil plot.
In terms of a self-defense class, I encourage you to take one. I took one in college, and I learned some useful stuff. But even better than having recall is having some muscle memory and practice at what to do. We practiced scary situations like having someone on top of us or grabbing a wrist.
I probably couldn’t tell you all the steps to get out of a choke hold, but I do know that I instinctively put my chin down toward my chest now when someone puts their arm around my shoulders (first step of escaping a choke hold, btw). Even if you don’t execute a move perfectly when you need it, you’ve still got that practice just in case it ever happens.
When it comes to self-defense, nothing is ever enough, after all you are protecting your life and limb. Personal alarms are also a very effective self-defense tool, and these can be used in conjunction with pepper spray. These often come in the form of small key rings or remote devices that can easily be tucked in a purse or coat pocket.
This pepper spray self-defense device fits comfortably in your hand with a stretch band to hold it in place while you run. It can also be worn on a belt and carried by mail carriers, delivery personnel, meter readers, bicyclists or anyone out for a stroll. It’s one of the most versatile self-defense units on the market.
Tear gases are for personal self-defense only to fight off an attacker. It is not to be used offensively to protect property or on someone you merely dislike. When used by surprise, pepper spray is an excellent distraction, allowing you time to get away. Contrary to media advertising, pepper spray does not guarantee stopping power or cause paralysis. An assailant can still grab you, punch you, stab you, or shoot you and will definitely be angrier after being sprayed. Also, tear gas may not be as effective on the insane, drug addicts, intoxicated, or hysterical persons.

Pepper spray is the most popular self-defense spray available today. Its cayenne pepper-derived chemical compound causes massive dilation of the capillaries in the pupils, and acute inflammation of the lining in the bronchial tubes of the respiratory system, making assailants go temporarily blind and find much difficulty breathing. A few short seconds of pepper spray in the assailant’s eyes incapacitates him on a physical level, not a sense level as with tear gas. That way, it is effective against attackers who are immune to pain such as psychotics, drug fiends, etc. Tear gas can not do that. And with pepper spray, the attacker stays down for a few to 45 minutes, allowing the defender plenty of time to get away and call law enforcement. |

Buying a product with a higher concentration of OC does not necessarily mean that it is a more effective self defense product than pepper sprays with lower OC concentrations. These personal security products are very effective, non-lethal weapons used by the military, law enforcement officers, and the public. Pepper spray and Mace have become the personal self defense product of choice for many, many women. As you can see here on iZAPmen.com, these products come in many different sizes, colors and shapes to fit every woman’s needs and lifestyle.
If you are a single woman and would feel comfortable with some added protection while in the comfort and privacy of your own home, you may want to consider purchasing non-lethal self-defense tools. No tool can guarantee safety. But these tools will give you some measure of security as you know that you can do something.
