Please tell me what would be effective in a "majority" of cases then. I would think a knee to the balls would cool the jets of a date rapist or a marital rapist right quick, myself. But then, I lack that equipment and don't have firsthand knowledge.
And, you know, I get that people freeze in bad situations, or that they may be unwilling to hurt another person, and that it's not "just" a matter of doing anything. And that is not the victim's fault either.
But to turn "learn self-defense" into "you're blaming the victim if you say that" makes me crazy.
