List of Ways to Rape Women Found in Miami University

A flyer was found in the men's bathroom at Miami University in Ohio, with a title that read, "The Top 10 Ways To Get Away With Rape". Actually offering tips to readers on how to commit a crime against female students.

The fact that someone or some group decided to place a flyer at Miami University, explaining how to rape females, is one of the most disturbing crime news we've ever come across. This piece of paper actually had instructions on how to go about committing the crime, such as; how to climb into windows, slit a victim's throat, focusing on women walking by themselves, etc. As it stands, women get raped more in university campuses, compared to women in general society today!

The officials at Miami University, called for a mandatory meeting for all their male students to attend and started an investigation on this rape instructions flyer. We suspect that if caught, he or them will just say it was a practical joke...

In this country rape is a very serious matter for women and definitely not a joke. Let's just hope that Miami University, gets to the bottom of this!

Sexual Whistles and Harassment by Men in Cities

Men whistle at you, while you are walking in the city and say, "Hey baby jump in my bed", "You can sit on my lap", "Give me some of that a...". You get the idea. Many women are victims of this and have to listen to it, on a daily basis.

Hollaback! website video. Click here to watch!

Most Women, no matter how old, what race or what language they speak, are sooner or later, victims of some sort of sexual harassment while walking in the streets, on a bus or subway. It's these constant comments from men that don't even know your name, but feel free to have a sexual conversation with you, by embarrassing you. Not only are there comments, but there's also groping while in a bus or train. For most women, this is intimidating and can be very scary, to say the least!

Some cities have laws in place to discourage men from doing this. Cities like New York and the State of Connecticut, which can penalize someone if they harass you constantly. In California, you have to be touched by an individual, in order for them to be penalized! But many cities don't have laws like these. They have harassment laws that only apply in the workplace, but not ones for the streets. It's important for all cities to have some sort of law, because harassment can turn ugly, too!

If you are a frequent victim of sexual harassment in the city, you might want to find out what laws are in place, if any! There is also a websites called, Hollaback!, which encourages women to tell their story and accepts donations for several changes that the organization is helping with, in the US and abroad as well.

You don't have to be harassed in the streets anymore by men. Know your rights, and if your city doesn't have laws in place, try to do something about it!

Ever Need to Step Out but Don't Want to Carry a Big Purse?

Many times us women just need our essentials such as our ID, keys, cell and a credit card, to go somewhere. But we end up hauling a big purse for our outing anyway! Even if it's not convenient.

Holster made by Body Glove

The older I get, the more practical I've become. One of the things that has always worried me, is putting my purse down somewhere and then someone stealing it. The less stuff I have to take, the better. Sometimes us women want to go to fun places and free our hands to eat, play or exercise too!

Should Children Trick or Treat at Sex Offenders' Front Door?

We all know that you can go to your neighborhood sheriff's website and find out where sex offenders live. But how comfortable are you in having your children, knock on their doors, during Halloween?

Back in the 70's there was the fear of razor blades in apples and poisoned candy. Now, many cities are concerned about sex offenders or pedophiles. For example, in a city in California, there is an ordinance in place that does not allow sex offenders to display halloween decor outside their homes. The sex offenders are also not allowed to open the door if trick or treaters knock. It also prohibits these individuals to light up their lights outside, after dark. Plus, the ordinance also requires sex offenders or pedophiles to place a sign on their doors with one inch lettering. This sign is required to read: "No candy or treats at this residence."

But these cautionary measures for children aren't only in California... In a neighborhood in Florida, a home association motioned to dispatch a security guard to keep an eye or monitor a sex offender's home during Halloween. In Georgia some uniformed guards were placed at a neighborhood's gated entrance, to distribute flyers informing neighbors, where the pedophiles lived.

There are some lawyers already filing lawsuits in courts, stating that these types of laws or ordinances, infringe on the First Amendment rights of pedophiles. What's your view on this issue? Is it worth while for the safety of our children on Halloween? Or does it go overboard and is it unconstitutional against pedophiles?

Self defense spray has been around since ancient Chinese wars and it's still popular today, because of it's effectiveness in disabling an attacker.

Focusing the spray in the eyes, offers the best self defense since it makes an attacker slam his eyes shut, due to the heat and pain it causes!

How Serious of a Rape Problem do We Have in the USA?

It's a very serious problem. To prove it we have some statistics for you that we find very discouraging... Fortunately, women can improve these statistics.

Women, especially young ones, think that they will never be a victim of sexual assault. Maybe because they haven't lived long enough to see the stream of rape reports or met anyone who has mentioned that they've been raped. The stigma, is so bad, that many of these crimes go unreported, as well!

We are here to tell you that, just as you fasten your seat belt when you get in a car, you should also fasten or carry a self defense weapon such as pepper spray with you at all times. With the exception of when you are at home, of course. Some might say this is very extreme... But statistics don't lie and the statistics are showing that women are more likely to be raped than the chances of an automobile accident to occur in our country. That's because this life threatening crime can occur in schools or universities, at work, parking lots, stairways, parks, alleys... The place or circumstances are endless. Perhaps you might say that men can also be victims of this, but unfortunately, women are the majority of the victims. What do car seat belts and self defense pepper spray weapons have in common? Well, they both may save lives. In fact, we looked up the statistics and this is what we found for the year 2009. Mind you, not all of these crimes are reported!

2009 U.S.A Statistics
Car Accidents:     10,800,000 (source: United States Census Bureau)
Sexual Assaults:  29,300,000 (source: Wikipedia)

Basically there were almost 3 times more rape crimes in this country than there were car accidents in 2009! The number of sexual assaults in our country placed us in 8th place, in the entire world.

So carry a pepper spray weapon ladies, and buckle up in self defense, as well as in your automobile! It's up to you, to change the statistics and not become a victim!
