I really do feel like most women's best self-defense is a look of total confidence. Carry yourself with good posture. Keep your head up, and look around you, not at the ground, and not at your phone! Make eye-contact and smile at strangers. It can't hurt, and may even make their day better! Besides, good posture has a lot of other great benefits too, you can read about them here and here. I do think it would be awesome if high school P.E. classes were all required to do a week-long (at least) course in self-defense too though. If you've never taken a self-defense class, you should find one in your area! It's always good to be prepared. :) I also like to carry mace - it's only $10 at WalMart people.
What you need to know about kidnappers and rapists
A study of rapists and date rapists and kidnappers in prison Most that were interviewed over the years stated that there are some common things they look for in a potential victim. Keep in mind that sociopaths pride themselves on how they can fool the public of their stealth. They blend in as normal ‘nice’ people.
Most are methodical and pick the right opportunity to strike. They don’t wear name tags, uniforms or text you in advance. And there is no ‘app’ to defend against them. All you can do is arm yourself with knowledge
Here are some interesting facts:
1. The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle. They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun! , braid or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to go after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common targets.

4. The number one place women are abducted from / attacked at is grocery store parking lots.
5. Number two is office parking lots/garages.
6. Number three is public restrooms.
7. Number four is stairwells
8. The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman and quickly move her to a second location where they don’t have to worry about getting caught.
9. If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going after you isn’t worth it because it will be time-consuming.
10. These men said they would not pick on women who have umbrellas, or other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their hands.
