December - January: Favorite Time For Sexual Abusers !
So the question is - Must You Be Blamed For Being Abused ?
Similarly, we can blame the friend, family, acquaintance, colleague to have breached our trust and abused us sexually, however we must take the responsibility to have learnt the subject of personal security. Only blaming the question paper and living a life in that blame will for sure tag us as a victim with a lack of logical reasoning. I'm sure many philosophic friends have told us 'Life is a Game' and we did agree with them. So have we learnt how to deal with opponents who are there to hurt you to win ?

Know Your Enemy - Know Yourself. And In A 100 Outings, You'll Never Be Sexually Abused.
- Alcohol is NOT a fun Accelerator or Amplifier. It makes you less aware of the fun that is actually taking place around you.
- Do not go out parting with a group that has a majority of people you don't know well enough (well enough can be defined through *PSE).
- Make a group of close trusted friends on whatsapp. Keep sharing your locations on that group so each of you can track the other in case of any emergency. In fact I suggest 'Live Tracking' as the option is now available in Whatsapp. Privacy can go fly a kite for a night.
- If you consume alcohol, do so only to half of your sane capacity.
- Never finish an unattended drink. This could be your last mistake.
- Plan your washroom trips. Between 2 drinks is the best. However, never hurry into a drink just because you wanna visit the washroom. A bottoms-up at the wrong time can send you spinning.
- If you are in a private party (not a public place) you should not be the last to leave. Rather we suggest you leave with the second lot. They don't miss much !
- It's winter and its gonna be cold. You don't want to wear clothes that expose you to possible injury to skin. I give this advice specifically to those who are not trained in Unarmed Combat or Personal Security. Dress plays a very vital role in how you can secure yourself during an escape. This also includes footwear that handicap your speed.
- Avoid public transport between 21:00 and 07:00 hours.
- Watch your '6' (your back). Identify and remember faces that look suspicious. Most times the bad guys follow their victim within a party premises and while party hopping.
- Carry small compact bags for easy mobility. Never leave them unattended.
- Carry a fully charged power bank that is compact. Never let your battery go below 50%.
- Avoid sharing your party plans on Social Media. You don't wanna tell the bad guys where you can be found at what time.
Time To Crime
In most cases during parties, the adversaries start with verbal provocation as a form of litmus test. If you are intoxicated enough to not realize this form of abuse they take it to the next level and so on. Hence my suggestion to keep spirit levels to less than half of your sane capacity.
If you lose control of your mind, your body is up for attack.
