The News is Alarming, But You Have More Power Than You Think! If you watch the evening news, it can seem as if the world is being overrun by violence. And if youre a woman or girl, you likely have already been victimized in some way or are vulnerable to criminal predatorsat home, in the workplace and even in public areas.

Women and girls are generally raised to be nice to everyone. Theyre taught to avoid being rude at all cost. To smile through awkward situations. To giggle when they feel uncomfortable rather than risk embarrassing someone who is just playing with them. To expect men to be their rescuers if theyre in danger. How many times in your life have you ignored the blaring sirens from your intuition when someone was violating your boundaries? Or worried as the creepy guy from your dorm followed you to class? Or suffered through regular sexual harassment at work?

Its a strange paradoxwe spend so much of our lives being hyper-vigilant about potential danger, but become utterly helpless when were confronted with uncomfortable and even dangerous situations. We smile when someone pays us an inappropriate compliment at work. We roll our eyes when a man makes a crude joke or gesture. We stiffen but dont necessarily move when someone brushes up against us.

Making Nice is Hurting You! Why do we make nice when were treated with disrespect? Our instincts are correct, but we override them because our early training was so strong. Part of the reason is fearthat the situation will escalate if we object, that well embarrass the other person or ourselves, or that the person we confront wont like/love/employ us anymore. Were also often clueless about how to respond. Then theres the pervasive, personally-held belief that we cant take care of ourselves, so we demure rather than react. We feel helpless, which leads to a sense of hopelessness and powerlessness. Denial is also a huge factor; we deny whats happening to us in favor of making excuses for the perpetrator: He was just kidding. Im just being overly sensitive. He didnt mean it. Or the ever popular, boys will be boys. This unfortunate perspective lets predators off the hook when they behave badly.

Its Time to Take Your Power Back! If youre tired of feeling afraid, of loathing and blaming yourself, of feeling too vulnerable, then take YOUR power back right now. Yes, right this very second! Recognize that youre a powerful being and claim it! Its time for you to get indignant! Its time to be as aggressive or rude as necessary to keep yourself safe and secure. Its time to stop waiting for someone else to rescue you. Summon your inner badass and rescue yourself!
