My feminist sister told me in my early teens never to kick a man between the legs because it could damage him permanently. Context? I was telling her about my self-defense classes.

Uhuh.

Apparently spitting is a good distraction tactic. No idea whether that's true. Never tried it.

You know, I recall someone saying something similar to me, and I told them, "If someone's attacking me, maybe they should suffer permanant damage."

Grrrrr.

I'm sure spitting works. Everything and anything helps.

Most times I've defused them by merely acting like a crazy person. Who bites.

hear hear! Nothing pisses me off more than "self defense" instructions that DON'T tell women to do this.
When I was 11 a girl my age was taken from her home at a slumber party. Her parents were in the next room she was surrounded by friends and they did nothing. Even at 11 I thought that girl was a moron, not to mention her friends.
