right..
well one self defense class..
im not challenging the idea of fighting back or even gauging eyes..
but you and your daughter need to be very aware that self defense classes even the most "real kind" lack a very real element...
a human being out to hurt you.
so
you have a 120 or 150 say lb young women. who may or may not have done some wendo or self defense.
vs
an adult male, 180 or higher..whos prob been in and out of the joint, prob on some drug, and for certain doesn't give a shit about anyone else let alone himself
by all means gauge his eyes. (they are harder to gauge then most think.) as he does what to her?
in what time frame to you envision the encounter?
blade at her throat or pointed and pressing dead center her privates? shes prob already has had the wind knocked out of her, is grounded, prob doesnt even know what has hit her, and she has a knife eager to slice her a man already hurting her...as shes most likely never felt this pain before..or
this fear...
allot to ponder....
if he has had past experience raping..
then the odds of the girl gauging his eyes actually being able to and thus getaway are lower..
most people are very unaware how easy it is for people to actually hurt those they target..
its not playign tag..
its not a controlled self defense class in a controlled dojo environment
its very real and most people when faced with the above prob dont have allot of faith in a one self defence class when their life is on the line..
anyway..
