I want to discuss a situation I was in last night.

It was Friday night, at my friends apartment, and me and my friend were drinking quite a bit and decided to go walk to the bar on campus. As we were going downstairs, there was an apartment being quite loud. I made a remark like “wow they’re being really loud” and my friend decided it was a good idea to bang on their door when I wasn’t looking.

When I heard it, I ran downstairs and around the corner. My friend decided to walk nice and slow for no good reason. Six people, four dudes and two girls came out of the apartment and surrounded my friend. At this point they didn’t see me, but I didn’t want to leave my friend to deal with it alone so I go over there.

As soon as I approached them, one of the guys instantly does the stereotypical chest to chest push to me. As this was happening we were still walking (but slower) towards the bar. Im trying to deescalate the situation and not showing any signs of aggression. But they kept insulting and literally screaming at my friend and I. They were saying “white ass bitch” and telling us to “keep walking”. At one point the guy shoves me into another guy and they got wayyy angrier about it. They were also waving their hands in our face. Eventually the biggest guy (at least 6”3) corals them away from us and we kept walking to the bar.

I understand that I did the right thing: I had a choice to get away from a fight and I did just that. I also understand that it was really stupid for my friend to bang on someones door. I wouldn’t have done that. But the reason for this post is I feel like a complete bitch for not getting physical or insulting. Im having troubles getting over that feeling.

Does sex matter in a physical altercation?

I have heard dozens of times that due to physical differences between a man and a woman the chanches are low that a woman can subdue a man. Even advises to wome were given like "Do not fight back, it may escalate the situation" in earlier times. I am also worried that a woman is capable to stop an attacker, let it be in self-defense situation or to help anybody other by physically intervening in an attack. Also I have worries that women can sucessfully detain a suspect in certain context either in civilian arrest or in law enforcement/security contexts. Is it really a matter of sex and that women are a weak sex?

So a few years ago someone attacked me and tried to mug me he wasn't able to steal anything but he eventually ran off, but he got me on the concrete, and I suck at lower body defense but great at upper body defense, though how he got the upper hand he was after my phone so I had to hold on to it so a tactical disadvantage and yes I know in the future I will have to learn lower body defense and get a hands free case for my phone, but right now I am just wanting to know some knee guards and shin guards that can protect against concrete impact ideally the cheapest option for what I need

self-defense for children

my baby sister just turned 10 and started the 5th grade. she faced bullying last year and was scared to start school today. she is not violent at all, very soft spoken and sweet but she has to defend herself. does anyone have any recommendations on what type of self-defense method might be best? this is because she was physically bullied and i think that everyone should learn to defend themself at a young age. i want to get her into classes asap. she did a couple of taekwando classes over the summer but i don’t know if it would be best. if anyone has any recommendation or advice i’d appreciate it so much!! thanks!

Batonior! Does anyone have any experience?

I've been looking for a spring loaded baton for awhile now but most of the ones I've found are made by companies that seem pretty sketchy and the build quality leaves alot to be desired. This isn't a real issue with the telescoping batons you open by flicking with the wrist but you really, really don't want a spring loaded one opening up in your pocket!

The good quality ones that I've found are much too expensive for me, $2-$300+, but then I came upon Batonior. I've watched several videos and read a bunch of reviews but I'd really like to hear from someone who has really used one. (I don't know enough about this stuff to know which reviews might be paid for).

 I'm specifically interested in the 511auto Asp https://batonior.com/products/walking-stick-metal

What to do if you are ripped out of your car?

The other day I was assaulted by a mob. I was the passenger in a vehicle. Some people were banging on the car windows and windshield, and my husband put the car into park to call 911, but this automatically unlocked my door. I think I was wearing my seatbelt. Someone opened my door and 3 people ripped me from the car, and then 3 more people came and all 6 were beating me.

I have never felt so weak and small in my life. What could I have done?

Feedback Needed: Interactive Self-Defense Game with Pressure Testing

Hey folks,

I’m developing a self-defense business and would appreciate your thoughts. The concept is a studio offering self-defense games that include pressure testing and real-life scenarios. Here’s the gist:

  • Setup: Small studio with heavy bags, mitts, and role-playing elements.
  • Scenarios:
    • Round 1: Social Gathering: Handling aggression at events.
    • Round 2: Service Interaction: Managing difficult customers.
    • Round 3: Family Conflict: Navigating family disputes.
    • Round 4: Workplace: Confronting aggressive colleagues.
    • Round 5: Public Confrontation: Dealing with aggression in public.
    • Round 6: Refine & Revisit: Revisiting and refining skills in various scenarios. (Group's choice by vote)

Pressure Testing: Includes optional physical elements like controlled interactions with staff and practice with wrestling dummies, focusing on safety and technique.

Questions:

  1. How effective do you think these scenarios are for real-world self-defense training?
  2. Any suggestions for ensuring the physical pressure testing is safe and beneficial?
  3. What are your thoughts on integrating physical and interactive elements in training?

Looking forward to your feedback!

How to defend against spears?

I live in a South East Asian country where there are a lot of young adults in bike gangs running around terrorizing people with spears around the cities centers at night.

The spears they use are basically knives welded onto the tip of a long metal pipe. I guess you could call them some sort of lance calvary (definitely not as chivalrous of course).

Obviously running away is still the best option but I don't think I can outrun dudes on bikes with big poking metal sticks. Is there any thing I can do to defend myself if the worst scenario happens and I can't run away?

I'm sorry if this seems like a ridiculous question (and the bad English). I appreciate your help.

Wild camping solo in Turkey for 1 month as a 27yo female

I have been thinking about self-defence stuff, and i think im good with the resources i have. I just want to double check if you guys find flaws in my thinking or if you can think something easy to add. Im thinking about buying a knife, once i get there, but it would suck to toss it everytime i plan on travelling via plane.

For moving around:

  • i carry sand in my fannypack in a tube. If i would get robbed: i would put my hands up, pretend to give him/her a wallet, but instead throwing coarse sand with chili pepper on attackers face and run away.

-i have heavy steel waterbottle that can 100% kill a man if being hit with it in the head. Will be carrying this with me.

  • i made a swing tool with heavy lock and fishing line (you basically cannot grap /see the fishing line when swinging) and if the attacker manages to grab it, the lock would still hit te attacker hand or other.

  • i have a rapewhisle that i always have (even in my sleep)

  • no flipflops, only shoes that i can run with them.

Camping:

If possible, i'll do a trip wire around my sleeping area with bells -> attacker falls + bells ring -> i wake up, i whisle and get the heck out.

I'll be sleeping in a hammock and inside mosquito net, i'll hang a cutter (the kind you use to open packages) on my net, so i can just rip open the net for easy exit.

And of course: i won't look like a tourist or a camper. I'm a minimalist camper so i'm carrying everything inside normal-looking school backpack. I also practice basic; don't go to sckethy places or travel during the night or draw attentition to me.

Thoughts?

Thoughts on dual wielding pepper spray and knife

I dont have a gun and i hike/walk my dog a lot at night and i often encounter homeless people and stuff like that. Right now i just bring pepper spray and a knife. I feel like this is a pretty good deterrent against anything that isn't a gun. My idea is that i would just use pepper spray against any threats initially and if somehow that doesnt stop them i would resort to my knife. They are both concealed on me. I feel like this is the best i can do until i get a ccw. what do you think

How do you deal with a very creepy individual?

There's a person who shows up at my church and is extremely creepy. He's a churner aka churns between being homeless and housed. However, he set's off big, gigantic red flags. He comes up to me and will DEMAND I help him with his phone, will not leave me alone, and today he waited outside of our fellowship hall to apologize about his interactions. Mind you, this guy is a felon, has a major TBI, and has threatened buildings.

The thing about this is that I have ASD which can make it hard for me to recognize bad situations, but I can feel a knot in my stomach and I want to vomit when he comes up to me.

Next time should I call the cops and have him removed, do what I am doing which is avoid confrontation and just "take a phone call from my brother" or bring my big, gigantic dog that is hyper protective? He's so creepy, I am thinking about going and getting gun training and to buy one - and if I get my next job I'll be on the road a lot. I already carry a high voltage taser, but I would rather not get up close and personal in regard to anything. Obviously, violence is the option as I would retreat to a safe area first, such as our church's safe room or bathroom. The one thing is, I am in a state with absolute stand your ground. If you feel threatened in my state, they tend to be very relaxed if it comes to it.

Untrained defense hypothetical

Maybe not the best sub to ask but I was at a bar the other day and a dude sucker punched my friend. He was weak and we kinda just held him until the place kicked him out blah blah blah all good. It got me thinking tho. I'm untrained in any form of fighting and fairly uninterested in it. However, I'm a pretty damn strong guy. If I was alone and got punched by a random dude and wanted to fight back, what's the reasonable strategy? This is mostly just hypothetical as I really don't plan to be in a position to get in a fight randomly, but I'm curious what you guys think. Just a shot to the gut or solar plexus? Does it make more sense to go for a takedown to get an advantageous position (I'm assuming the guy isn't some BJJ pro). Also worth mentioning in this hypothetical I'm not trying to kill the guy, just make him stop attacking me or anyone else.

26F had a gun pulled on me while I was in my car. Gaslit by friend

It was about 10pm, I had just drove home and parked at the apartment complex we both live at (separate apartments), I sat in my car for about 20 seconds and a tweaker dude about 15-20ft from the back of my car yelled FUCK and I started locking my doors, rolling up my windows. He came straight to my drivers side and was facing me, about 5” from my car for about 1-3 seconds. he was pulling a gun out of his belt and I remember seeing the body language of his hand and arm that was his dominant hand, and I am taking no chances but to flee. I FLOORED IT like SpongeBob in boating school. This dude was also fully in black with a black hood on. I’ve seen too many stories where not only the car gets jacked but the female or male is held hostage and I’d honestly rather die fleeing than surrender.

Anyway, it was black and metallic/shiny, I have trained with guns and am a certified martial artist also. Anyway, I took my friend to a bjj class and we pulled up to the spot where it happened and I went “oh that’s where it happened!” And she says, “it probably wasn’t a real gun” and “he probably wasn’t trying to jack your car”.

……. I just want to hear from you gun expert men why this is an insane remark. I broke my lease over this btw right after, and the night before it happened I was actually watching gun safety videos. Also, if you guys have any video recommendations for car self defense, I will watch them. Car gun self defense seems very complex. Thank you!! So glad btw we have these amazing communities

Self defense in Ca.

So I live in California. I’m in an okay neighborhood in a pretty bad town. I go out at night a lot, rucking, walking my dogs and just going for walks. Usually I feel relatively safe.

Had an incident a couple of days ago where I’m sure a guy was considering attacking me. I think the only reason he didn’t was my posture, eye-contact, tone of voice, etc.

It occurred to me that I had nothing on me with which to defend myself, and I’d rather not have that happen again.

Any thoughts or experience with less lethal tools for everyday carry? Stuff I might be able to have in Ca? I was thinking of getting a flashlight, potentially.

For context I’m a decent sized guy, experienced in martial arts and good at fighting.

Learning muay thai was a good decision

Im about 18, 5’8 and maybe i think 140. Growing up I’ve never learned how to fight, where i live we fight alot its just a regular thing and usually i can beat smaller guys but my stupid ass always went for the big set of guys like 6ft or 6’2, i even tried to fight a dickhead who was 6’7(i got the shit beat out of me). This summer i learned some Muay Thai at home and some wrestling but mainly Muay Thai and honestly i don’t want to glaze my willy and tickle my jewels or anything but practicing a combat sport is really important and this has opened my eyes. Most altercations you get with someone who’s big and most likely they cant fight or never practiced (if they do and your as small as me the best thing to do is calm the guy down) and if you know a little bit of something 8/10 times out of ten you’ll win the other two times you lose if you get body slammed. But a rear naked choke and a kick in the knee has worked so well for me bro. I think everyone should learn a combat sport as-well as track, cause if your walking with your girlfriend at night and like 3 people are trying to jump you i promise you can think you’re superman, but you’re not going to beat all 3 of them.This happened to me last week but i just used her as a backpack and ran,i dont even know why we were in that area so late. Im just saying learning these things are so fun and beneficial bro I’m just glad i learned something new.

Realistic knife defense that actually works. Try against resistance.

The video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJXAgxbQrVs

Obviously knife defense should only be tried as a last resort attempt and Your chances to die are extremely extremely High.

Check My older knife defense video for additional ideas, for example, dealing with the opponent's free hand aside from trying to knock it aside/ force your way through it (it has many more incomplete techniques): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxIyeFBmsOY&rco=1

This new video was made as a result of thinking about some of the problems which arose from the techniques shown at my older video. Mainly:
1) Not being able to catch the knife wielding arm against an equal opponent - Thus the Collar tie (Head tie).
2) Getting to the conclusion that It's hard to implement fast enough classic moves and submissions like Kimuras and Arm Bars against an equal opponent.

A video with many demonstrations of full 100% fights while wearing defensive equipment will be uploaded in the future.
Your critique and suggestions will be tested as well. Especially I'm looking for a solution against "Ice pick grip" stabs which are the most common during terror attacks in Israel. A solution which is hopefully better than what was shown at my older video. Maybe you'll find an inspiration for a solution at my older knife defense video and/or here.

are there any weak points on the face and jaw?

I have a pretty strong grip strength, at about 190 lbs, and have utilized it for self defense before, but usually it's either by grabbing their face, jaw, neck, or shoulder and squeezing until they stop fighting me. Only problem is that it's kind of iffy. I'm curious about any points on the face and neck that are susceptible to crushing. I scarcely resort to punching and kicking, and when my grip doesn't work I just use takedown techniques. I'm not really able to find any points by searching google aside from obvious points like the chin that you can't really squeeze. I would think that things like the masseter would be effective but I'm not sure.

self defence tips

Hello! I (14M) am thinking about learning some sort of self defence or martial arts, only problem is that we live in the middle of nowhere and the nearest town is a good 45 minute drive. It isn't possible to join any classes so I'm wondering if it would be okay to learn online??? Another problem I have is that I'm fairly overweight and I'm not flexible. I can barely to the basics like climnbing a fence or doing a pushup. I'm looking into self defence not just for the defence side of it but also to lose weight if possible. Theres only karate in the nearest town and I am unable to drive anywhere and don''t have anyone that can actually drive me. Any advice and/or tips would be much appreciated. I also live in rural nsw/australia if that helps
