You know, that's interesting because, even though I'm a male, those are the
hours I've always felt safest outside. :-/  I've always felt like I was
roaming through the boogeys between midnight and 5am.  But I guess rapists go
to work every day, too, so they just get up an hour early and walk around
finding somebody to take advantage of.

Heh... and those are the three places I always watch myself.

Maybe I'll start using a cane. :-D  Maybe it would be a trendy, stylish thing,
too. :-)

Hmmm.  Kill all the witnesses.

I think I saw some woman on Jerry Springer trying to use those tactics on her
ex-boyfriend and it didn't work.

Yes, as a male, I can personally testify that it does hurt and it not take
much force behind the slap to send a male into agony.  If I was a rapist and
knew that a woman had the strength to rip my muscle fibers through the skin, I
would in no way, shape, form or fashion, want her anywhere near my magic
nodules.

One thing I recommend, however, is after you kick him in the nuts, he'll
probably lean forward and start bouncing around.  That makes his face a
perfect target.  Drop your ladyhood and kick him in the face.  Then when he
flies back, kick him in the nuts a few times more just to drive the point
home.  Then send me your description so I'll know to remain at least eight
feet away from you should we meet in a parking lot.

It's extremely painful to the forearm as the tendons are stretched, too.  I
just did it to myself without much pressure and oddly it resembles a mild
"kicked in the nuts" pain.  Combine that with an intense feeling of diarrhea
cramps crawling from your gnads to your guts and that would be what being
kicked down below feels like.  Well, I've never actually been kicked down
there.  I jumped to catch a football I thought was coming with a high pass,
but it was a low pass.  With my whole body flying through the air like a giant
X, (and I might say that what normally would have been hanging in front was
pointed up) the football caught me square in the crotch.  I instantly morphed
from an X to a @.  I was in constant pain for a good two minutes, but it was
another three minutes before I was willing to stand up.  My only happy thought
was, "I'm glad that was a Nerf football."

Yeah, and think of it like this: A lot of disabled people are actually
offended if you try to help them accomplish something they've learned to do
just fine with their handicap, temporary or whatnot.  I remember giving a guy
a total at a retail store I worked at.  The guy had a problem with one of his
hands -- like it was still an infant's hand even though he was around 20 years
old.  Anyway, I took the cap off the pen before giving it to him and he
grumbled, "Nah, I can do it!!"  Well, I wasn't thinking about his hand, but
keeping the cap to my pen!  He simply misunderstood my actions, but it showed
me that you probably shouldn't help a disabled person unless they ask for it,
and sometimes, even then you should be cautious if you don't know the person
or if there's nobody else around. :-)
