@bethneedsabreakk: This isn’t fear-mongering. This is survival. You’ve been taught to be polite—so they’re watching to see if you are. This is what real-life danger actually looks like. And this is how you can shut it down. #SituationalAwareness #WomensSafety #SelfDefenseTips #HyperVigilant #GutInstinct
I always tell my daughter “you don’t owe anyone a smile or hello”

I instantly say NOPE and walk away. My dad said a real man would never go up to a woman he doesn't know and ask for anything.

A homeless man rode up to me on a bike in a parking lot and I said immediately “I don’t talk to strangers in parking lots” and he said don’t blame ya and rode away lol

My response is: Get the F**k away from me in a very stern voice. I don’t give AF anymore if people think I’m rude.

One of my flaws is definitely being too nice, it’s hard to change.

I RAN for my life. He didn’t say a word. He stopped in middle of parking lot - Looked around - then looked at me. My body has never reacted like that. I pushed the cart and ran to my car and BOLTED. I still get scared thinking about it

Will never forget the man in a dark parking garage who let me get in the empty elevator while backing away saying, “go ahead. I’ll get the next one. It’s what I’d want a man to do for my mom.” 😍

A while back nearby my city, a mom was walking out of a grocery store in the middle of the day with her little boy in the seat and some lady charged them and killed her little boy. Right there in the middle of a parking lot in broad daylight. I remember thinking how many times I’m just unaware of my surroundings & feel “safe” because it’s daylight and somewhere mundane like a damn grocery store! That poor mother and child 💔

“The Gift of Fear”, excellent book. Women need to follow their gut. Women can’t worry about coming across mean or worrying about hurting their feelings.

They work on teams too. Men will recruit women to make the first approach so we lower our guards.

My husband says no man will approach a woman for any reason with good attentions. If you know that you will take a combative stance instantly. Yell at them with all your adrenaline

hey.there. :
Practice your RBF as well. It'll discourage them from approaching you to begin with.
Also, controversial opinion, a grown man (stranger) has no business asking a woman or children for help. They could have asked another man - they chose a woman/child for a reason.

Rando man stopped me in a parking lot asking me to follow him to gas station bc his debit card “wouldn’t work”. I said no. He told me his daughter always helps ppl. I said ok, call your daughter. He switched up so fast and got aggressive and rude. He had intentions that had nothing to do w/ helping him get gas.

This goes against everything that women are socialized to do since we are little girls.

Anyone coming up to me while I am out screams danger because like I am a small woman, there’s absolutely nothing I can help you with out in the wild. Immediate no.
