I carry my pepper spray everwhere I go just as your sister. It is on my key ring. Whenever I am in a shady area or around unfamiliar people, I have one hand on it at all times. It's small and easy to pull out in case of an emergency. My mother gave it to me when I went off to college. Thank God I've never had to use it.

You are right small things such as carrying peeper spray can help a woman to take care of her self. Also, avoiding drinking too much when going out because most of the assaults occur when alcohol is involved and especially never walk around dark or isolated places. I just saw in the news that a woman was assaulted while using a restroom at a rest stop area when coming back home from the thanksgiving weekend. We always need to be careful, be aware and report any type of assault even if it involves a family member.
