As a woman, I've been in any number of positions where I was keenly aware of my vulnerabilty. I'm not sure men always consider that aspect when THEY don't have bad intentions.

I've been able to remove myself in some way before I found out whether it was a truly DANGEROUS sitch or just extremely uncomfortable. I try to be aware such as not being so engrossed in my phone when in public by myself. Having said that, I really need to take a self defense course.
