“Street Smart” Women Are Sharing What They Do To Keep Themselves Safe

Unfortunately, the world we live in isn’t safe for women. Thankfully, women are taking it upon themselves to stay out of harm’s way. Which is why Reddit user groceryenthusiast asked, “Street smart women, what are your tips to keep yourself safe?”

They shared, “I once saw a similar question on r/AskReddit and was really surprised at how different the comments were depending on gender. The men were posting tips on how to avoid getting pickpocketed. But the women’s comments were much more about keeping ourselves personally safe — how to avoid being touched without consent, being roofied, even from being kidnapped or killed.

So, ladies, what street smarts do you have? What are your tips?”
