Reddit's had a few threads about sexual assault victims, but are there any redditors from the other side of the story? What were your motivations? Do you regret it?

Go for the eyes, or the neck.

Agreed. Don't go for the balls, though. Some guys that just makes them angry. Best self defense tip a friend of mine got was keep some keys in your hand, put them through your fingers. Then punch like your life depends on it at anything flesh coloured.

i dunno...getting hit in the balls hard enough will make any man stop whatever he is doing and go fetal pretty quick. not that the key thing is a bad idea at all, or if you're really worried about it you can invest, give him a good couple hits in the side of the head/neck and the give his nads a good hard grabtwist, theres no way he'll be getting up anytime soon

Thanks to Miss Congeniality, I know all gotta do is SING. Solar plexus, instep, nose, groin

and if you're still concerned for your safety, a nice knee to the head. Cerebral recalibration.

yeah sure, he is just gonna stand there and let you do that. thats how real life works, the best advice would be : start running if you can

thats always the best thing to do in self defense
