10 Steps 4 Self-defense 4 Women

"1.) You are equal to all others! That, Male Supremacy, euphemistically called “sexism”, opposes."

Dear friends,

As I, along with a number of other men, have been making an extra effort to join all females in ending Male Supremacy (euphemistically called “sexism”), below, I have listed what I know to be the necessary character traits that all women must possess in order to combat the world’s number one problem – violence against women and girls.

In everyday social interactions, racism, the cute term for White Supremacy, is much bandied about; however, the government- and corporate-controlled media stay away from talking about Male Supremacy. Yet, the latter system of oppression exists in every country, city, town, and village. Racism does not! That means that whether you are in oil-rich Nigeria or our own nation, the USA, the oppression and exploitation of females remains our biggest social problem, not our economy or “global warming”, for that matter. As a result, women and girls are not safe in any particular situation. Moreover, what good is having a thriving economy, if females cannot feel safe to be alone?

Finally, I ask any of the readers of this blog, regardless of your gender, to direct all females who you know to read the info below. The main point being made here is: It does not matter what fighting techniques that one knows, if she has not developed her inner powers so that she can both make and keep a promise to herself to not allow herself to be assaulted in any way; otherwise, she will not use the aforementioned techniques.

One Love,

10 Steps 4 Self-defense 4 Women

1.) You are equal to all others! That, Male Supremacy, euphemistically, called “sexism”, opposes.

2.) No one has a right to put his or her hands on you, unless you want that person to. Period! (battered wife)

3.) There are no tough guys out here. Perps are punks. (Tough looks mean nothing)

4.) You have nothing to prove to anyone, so don’t get into squabbles with people where you’re exchanging threats with each other.

5.) Whether you hit back or not, your opponent will attack you. Screaming “Get off of me” will get you nowhere.

6.) In a fight, you are confronting your own insecurities, not those of your opponent(s).

7.) You must have a “sense of self”. That means that you know what it’s like to be alone and accomplish goals on your own. In other words, if you only know how to get what you want with another person, you will not know what it’s like to go through life’s changes by yourself. So you really won’t know yourself. Furthermore, without knowing yourself, you won’t know how you’ll respond in any particular situation to whatever problem or circumstance that arises.

Please remember that any response messes the perp up, since he only wants you to “freeze” from not knowing what to do; that will allow him to walk you right through the victimization process. As well, that also means that you will not know what it’s like to keep a promise, not even to yourself. Therefore, you will not know what it is like to be able to depend on yourself to resist an attacker, much less being able to help those who need your protection like your growing children.

Additionally, you won’t truly appreciate other people, because you won’t really know what they went through just trying to survive in life by themselves. Besides, regarding having a “sense of self”, it allows one to possess the personal and divine power called “courage”. And, as the great Maya Angelou insists, “Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.”

8.) When you know how to fight, you know when to fight. Therefore, you will use tactics ranging from non-violent to extremely violent, according to the situation. For example, if someone is robbing you at gunpoint, let him or her have the money. You are not less for that. S/he is. On the other hand, you must not allow anyone to either rape you or make you go somewhere with them (usually to a place where they can kill you without being noticed). You have a great chance of surviving a gun assault (85%) and you will feel good about yourself, knowing that no one can take your soul.

9.) Always remember, you have both a duty and a responsibility to yourself and all of those who you love and who love you to maintain your well-being and existence.

10.) There are people who claim to be pacifists. However, those people are dishonest and cowardly (lacking courage). After all, people may very well claim to be civilized and obey the first of the Ten Commandments; yet, that’s obviously a lie, whether speaking of an individual or a government. Both the past and present behavior of humans reveals that simple truism. Therefore, if the so-called pacifists lived in a place where they could not depend upon either the violence or the threat of it by the police or military, they would be corpses – not pacifists.

Moreover, if someone was bringing murder or its equivalent (that is, rape) to one of your loved ones, while you stood there with a gun, and they refused your command to stop, would you shoot that person? No one’s a pacifist. That’s a lie! And I certainly don’t mean to sound like Senator Wilson of South Carolina. You must maintain! Ultimately, you may decide to run away from your attacker; however, you won’t even do that without a “sense of self”, as mentioned earlier, and the divine inner power called “courage” that you will discover within yourself as a result of having that “sense of self”. Instead, you’ll just cower and/or beg as you are being victimized. Don’t be a victim!
