A video of an attractive woman walking around New York City and getting catcalled 100+ times is making headlines (see below for video). I can totally relate. I get harassed by women ALL THE TIME! It happened twice last night! My grandma used to say, "You'll be so handsome you'll be beating girls back with a stick!" Little did I know how right she'd be. Below are my favorite sticks for defending myself against unwelcome advances. These are for personal defense only.

Remember those old commercials for Hai Karate After Shave?
