Zen Garden > Self Defense - How to Stop a Would-be Rapist DEAD in His Tracks!

If there is one crime that people, mainly women, fear more than any other crime it is a sexual attack - rape to be specific. Just the thought of another person using force to invade your body in this manner is repugnant. But there are ways to make the mongrels who commit or attempt to commit this disgusting crime to stop dead in their tracks before they get too far into their actions.

Some of these methods are verbal. But I'm not going to pussy-foot around teaching you how to psychologically outmaneuver these criminals. No. I'm going to give you a REAL technique - a physical one.

Before I even attempt to describe this technique I must say that it is dangerous. It must NOT be used unless you are in very real fear of being physically engaged in this most serious assault. To use this technique is a LAST RESORT method. It is something that would be used only after all other avenues fail OR in the actual commission of the crime itself.

Sex-attackers come in all shapes and sizes. The targets are normally women. The attackers often have only one thing on their mind - the attack. Attackers can outweigh their intended victims by 20,30,50 or even 100 pounds or more. The attackers may even be very strong. The sex-attack can therefore be EXTREMELY one-sided. It is therefore useless to try to overpower the sex-attacker. However, even against a heavily-muscled and powerful sex attacker this technique will work. The only thing that you will need to determine will be your timing.

Here is the technique:

Use your thumbnail to gain access to the corner of the sex-attacker's eye on the side nearest to his nose. (This is IMPORTANT for leverage). Dig the nail in and scrape it across the cornea of his eye towards the direction of his ear.

I know this sounds disgusting. It is. But so is the act of rape. If possible also try to gouge skin downwards and across his face. To achieve this you should imagine gouging the number 7 starting at the inner eye, moving across the eye and then downward to rip as much skin from the attacker's cheek as possible. There is a reason for this that I will explain below.

The sex attacker will be so concerned about the pain and the loss of vision to his eye that he will stop. His hands will go to his face. His eyes will both be filled with tears. That will make it difficult for him to see. His nose will also fill with fluid. This will disorient him in the same manner that happens when we have a serious cold or influenza.

Naturally, he will become outraged. He may begin to swing his fists wildly. In his confusion you should make good your escape.

Now, your FIRST concern should be escape. Run. Run to a group of people if that is possible. Next, you need to find your nearest police station. When you arrive you should ask for a DNA kit to be brought to the interview. The corneal and skin scrapings will provide a DNA sample for data matching.

Often the sex-attackers already have a criminal record. If they don't then they now will. Also, by raking down across the attacker's face it will make it impossible for SOMEBODY (eg wife, brother, father, sister, work colleagues etc) NOT to notice the scar.

When a police alert is issued through the media he WILL be identified. An injury to the face will not heal for around 7 to 10 days depending on the weather and whatever treatment is administered to the wound. In addition to that he will almost invariably have to seek medical or optical assistance for the damaged cornea. Police will be on the lookout for any person who presents with such a condition.

As I have already warned - this is a SERIOUS defense. It should ONLY be used in times of dire peril. To use such a technique just because you changed your mind during normal sexual intercourse will see you in a LOT of trouble. Do not underestimate the power and danger of this technique - OR the legal issues if you use it unwisely.

REMEMBER: You should ONLY use this dangerous technique for the most urgent SELF-DEFENSE. You should NOT use it for any other purpose. I take no responsibility for the use or mis-use of this technique. This information is provided entirely under the responsibility of your own personal judgement.
