No means no! - Learn to stand up for yourself

A woman's tongue is her sword, and she used to make the decisions. Now, however, words are no longer absolute. This has been accompanied by a shift in women's roles and positions within the family, as well as a continuation of their independence and responsibilities, the foremost of which is self-defense. Women, in general, are facing a rising tide of harassment, increasingly sophisticated pickpocketing that often results in physical injuries, and a premeditated violence that not only shatters the bodies of many but also their spirits. Today, by following a few simple guidelines, detailed and illustrated with examples in this book, a woman can learn to say "no" and mean it, instead of becoming easy prey. This will not only prevent her attackers from harming her but also strengthen her self-confidence.
