Womens self defense, or MMA grappling?

They need to attack the vital areas in close quarter attacks. This is the best escape for women, and to use the element of surprise as well.
Here is a few videos I saw on the net. I know the woman may or may not be using Kung Fu , but she has the right direction for a smaller woman. Watch how many times she attacks the groin, or eyes, or throat, or twist the neck etc. I am not saying she is some great martial artist. But the point I am making is that women should be able to escape fast from an attacker, and I would not want to see them train for years in grappling only to be overcome by a larger grappler. By the way many of these same techniques can work for women on the ground in a grappling situation, or for men as well.

Notice in this second clip that the Wing Chun teacher uses language that I have been using for a long time, he says strike the eyes and groin. I think anyone who is familiar with survival combat fighting and not just sport fighting will immediately see the reality of such defenses.

And this is the mess that happens to a woman when she tries to go the non combative route. But I have to say one good thing for the teacher he did say to attack the vital points when the opportunity presents itself.
