Especially if you can learn to use it creatively. People fear the unknown most of all. They will believe something as truth not because it actually is true, but because they fear it might be true. A straight out lie, or a lie with a sprinkling of truth, can go a long way. Anyways, thanks for the interesting read, whom ever you are. :-) (Not a coward, just incredibly lazy. Yeah, that's it.)

Sexual harassment is about power. To override this attempt to intimidate, Indian women can defend themselves with pepper spray, stun guns and more creative devices of response. After being sprayed a few times (targets: eyes and face) with hot habanero pepper spray these mendogs bent on pinching and grabbing would back down. More creatively defensive would be a stunning bra--based on the Howard Hughes designed B-52 nose cone bra, like Marilyn Monroe wore in The Seven Year Itch--the pointed tips would be loaded with a shocking device that stuns the encroaching fingers and hands. Deterrent is key. In a country known for its non-violence, other possible tools for resistance might be the paint sprayer or cologne splasher--any unwarranted act of boob pinching (or worse) results in being squirted with paint (like Paintball) or doused with strong cologne. Surely these mendogs have women at home who would never suspect their respectable spouses engaging in such aggressive behavior toward other women, until the cheap cologne or bright orange paint on a expensive suit--the image of the moment of discovery is pleasing.
