Being a lady means being constantly in the fear of being attacked or harassed when walking alone. The safest method that has proved effective so far is getting a male companion to escort you to places that pose a threat to your existence.

But what about the situations where a male companion is not available? Here are a few tips to help you stay safe:


1. Always try your best to stay in well-lighted areas. A dark area is a danger zone because, if you are in the shadows nobody will see you, let alone help you. Staying in well-lighted areas makes it easier for people to spot you when in trouble.

2. Move with the crowds as a person with evil intentions will not attack you when you are among other people. If you think you are being followed or someone makes you feel uncomfortable, try to go towards areas that have a lot of people instead of walking down lonely roads, which would make you vulnerable to danger.

3. Make sure you have at least a can of pepper spray in your purse. Pepper spray has saved a lot of lives.

4. Most importantly, if you know a certain road is not safe, do not go through it.
Stay safe.
