Eye, groin, run. Got it. Must remember the order. Wouldn't want to accidentally stab them in the groin with the keys... Or would I? >;)
I took a self defence class once, and they taught us how to use our bodies - fingers, knuckles, palms, elbows, knees, feet, etc. - as weapons. Once, we spent twenty minutes learning how to gauge out someone's eyes. See, this is where my squeamish stereotypical girliness comes in. Women are nurturers by nature - inflicting violence is much harder for them than men, self-defence or no. There's a biological resistence to inflicting pain on another living thing. And even if there wasn't, it's EYE-GAUGING! (*shudder*) The groin is a much safer bet. :)
