- The dressing is not a matter to judge you. Always prefer to wear lovely clothes but a decent one. You might still hear that girls should be girls always, yes, of course, you should go beyond the ethical standards but you are brave enough to stand by yourself.
- Don’t be girlish to react. Don’t let others give dirty looks or misbehave. Whenever someone tries to misbehave just shout loudly without panic. This will make the offender think you are strong.
- Don’t wear too much fancy and jewels which will make a thief to notice you. Be simple to wear dresses and accessories. Don’t go alone wearing gold. If someone treats you with knife remember your life is important than money and gold so let it go.
- Never hesitate to help other girls when someone is misbehaving in public. Question on the behalf of that girl. But be aware to use words which may make them angry and make them repeat things.
- Keep a spray inside the handbag. Use whatever available with you to scare them. Seriously you can even use your nails, teeth, key, pen etc. You can throw sand on their eyes as they show in films.
- Be aware that scolding them, hitting with footwear, spitting on them, crying won’t work these days. You should be brave enough to self-offend in any situation.
- When you’re going in three wheelers some drivers try to cheat you. In such case don’t listen to them when they give you talks, at least act like you are talking in mobile phones (while walking in streets also) or look on Google maps to make sure the correct route. Always remember the emergency numbers.
