When we heard about Self-Defense Stilettos, we have to admit that we got really excited. We pictured shoes with a James Bond-esque component, like a button to shoot pepper spray out of the heel or a hidden compartment in the platform for a stun gun or something.Filed under: Accessories
I know men are supposed to spontaneously combust whenever we see, hear, or think about feminine hygiene, but it's worth the risk to make you aware of my favorite new invention: the Tampon Stun Gun. "Ladies can replace that monthly period with an exclamation mark as feminine hygiene goes lethal with The Pink Stinger, a stun gun creatively disguised as a tampon...except for the buttons, prods and high voltage. This weapon of mass absorption aims to target a niche market consumer, that being the tampon wielding women who desire private and discreet security in a friendly familiar package."
The sleek, elegant design creates a soothing, modern atheistic, coupled with the raw, yet effortless functionality, makes this a truly stylish option for the self-defense enthusiast.
Just kidding, this is lame. Assuming the mugger was willing to wait around for you dig through your purse for a "tampon," there's no way he'd let you touch him with it -- even if he thought it wouldn't zap the crap out of him. Plus, you know someone is going to use this like a normal tampon and get a very uncomfortable surprise.

Ever wanted your own electric force field? The no-contact jacket allows you to send 80,000 volts of low-amperage, non-lethal electric current just under the surface of your entire jacket. Anyone who touches the coat while you've got it activated will experience some serious pain, plus lose voluntary muscle movement, giving you time to run away. Inside the jacket, you're protected from the zap by the rubbery interior.Filed under: Handbags, Accessories
When I saw this handbag from James Piatt I thought to myself, "Wow! cute purse! Wait... are those brass knuckles?" And the answer is yes, those are brass knuckles. And on this handbag, they are conveniently doubling as a handle. But don't worry, they easily detach should you need them for self defense.
