Criminals are looking for easy targets, and women who are distracted and not fully aware of their surroundings make excellent targets. http://tinyurl.com/rakkyqAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-15119963745864155992009-05-28T01:03:47.329-07:002009-05-28T01:03:47.329-07:00I agree, especially if you have a sleepy, bored, t...I agree, especially if you have a sleepy, bored, trusting, kind, even 'pretty' face. Also the sound of your voice, whether your 'shy' or timid, need I say your gender. These things make you vulnerable and reveal alot about your character. <br /><br />You need to know what you LOOK like and seperate it from WHAT you are, just because your SAS but happen to look like a drunk idiot is a big deal. <br />Though it would be very difficult for me to change the natural character of my voice or face in everyday public conversations, recognizing this problem of mine and mitigating its effects by acting very aware, making sure you don't enter areas where you are trapped, always have an eye to the exit, keep your eye fixed on any suspicious people, instead of not meeting their eye ecetera. <br /><br />I think all this is incredibly important, it cannot be understated.mannynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-20943941940449915012009-05-27T12:43:11.014-07:002009-05-27T12:43:11.014-07:00This also keeps con artists away.
