8. Just How Important is Perspective in Self-Defense?

Kelly and Doug get deep and dirty about the value and necessity of a woman’s perspective in self-defense classes, classes, seminars, and literature.  Who should be teaching who how to protect themselves?  Should a male instructor be teaching women how to defend themselves?  Does a police officer, who is trained in situational awareness and personal safety for work, have the proper insight to train average citizens?
