What Not to Wear: This episode was recorded before Jonah Hill's texts to his ex were made public, but women have been blamed for causing sexual assault due to their clothes of thousands of years, from too much make up to high heels to everything in between. In today's world, that extends to our digital devices as well: ear buds, smart phones, head phones -- no matter what we carry, wear or how we look, it all goes against the common sense of self defense. But is that realistic?

In this episode we talk about:

• Ponytails & where that myth comes from
• The Pink Tax
• Using your smart phone as self defense
• SOS buttons and networking apps
• Wearables: noise and alarm devices for self defense
• Being culturally sensitive when you travel vs. the stupid shit humans do (and it's ok)

We also invite you to join our self defense database, where you can anonymously share tips and techniques that you use to keep safe with other women across the world. Just send us an email to [email protected] with DATABASE in the subject line and we'll connect you to the file!
