Let's Stop Rape campaign. Day 9

It's another beautiful day and it's the 9th day of the "Let's Stop Rape" campaign.  We continue on the measure we can take to prevent rape. We consider the use of a common device as an option.

Day 9
- Self defence: Self defence is the act of defending yourself when you are in a helpless situation. It is acceptable in the court if proven irrespective of the outcome/damage on the person. You should learn how to defend yourself. It is a skill that can be learnt and will come in handy at times when someone attempts a rape. You can try Taekwando or Judo, Boxing or kick boxing.
You should also work at being fit. Register with a gym if necessary and be disciplined with your routine. Physical fitness also improves your mental alertness.

- Keep a speed dial: A speed dial is when you have a contact on your phone registered to a particular figure/button such that you just have to press only that button to dial the number stored to it. Every phone can keep a speed dial.

This is like a last resort to take when it seems you are  out of option. You do a speed dial without allowing the rapist know and start talking loud for your receiver to hear and swing to action as fast as possible. This means the person on your speed dial must be someone smart and patient, able to deduce what is going on and act on it as fast as possible. When the issue is out of control, you use your phone which will not bring any suspicion.
I guess we can figure out other thoughtful ways we can use our gadgets as security helps in times of difficulty.

You have a responsibility in this matter to protect yourself and your loved ones. Remember that a rape culprit can be masked in a simple and helpful look. It is better to be prepared than to be caught unawares.
Let’s stop rape.

Thank you.
