What lengths do you go to to ensure you’re safe? I personally don’t go to house parties and prefer to be home before sunset.

I carry a pistol.
That's pretty much the only thing.

I don't go outside alone at night, I don't drink or drug (for my health not just safety), I don't date men, someone always knows where I am, and I also dress masc most of the time. It's a gamble whether that last one works.
Given three of my demographics I should have been assaulted by now but it hasn't happened. I'm very lucky.

I carry around hairspray since pepper spray is illegal here and you can be punished pretty severely for carrying or using it, and sued by the person you used it on pretty easily, even though rapists only get 6 months to 2 years in prison. With hairspray you can claim you had it in your bag for using on your hair and that you used it in the heat of the moment when you were attacked.
Self defense in general is really strict about how far you're allowed to go. If you subdue a home invader you're not allowed to hit them with a baseball bat or anything like that. If someone beats them up before the cops arrive you're going to have a fun year or so in court trying to prove that they continued to pose a threat the entire time, i.e. were getting back up and attacking you, and you weren't trying to stop them from running away from the scene as that's no longer self defense (but if they ran away the police would not search for them and they'd get off scot free)

>>100485Do you have long hair, nona? Start wearing it up so you can use a hair fork for hella plausible deniability
