Well, nice idea, but it's weak. So, let's imagine the situation. You want to cause her harm, presumably rape her. You get light shock (as on the video) when you touch her. So, next is inevitably blow to her head. Unprotected head, and after that, she can't push button OR do anything else. Bad idea.
I am teaching basics of self-defense (also to women) and this is seriously bad idea. Even good pepper spray would be better, because it will (at least partially) INCAPACITATE the assailant.

If I were a crook... no offense, but it wouldn't be her arms that I would be trying to grab if I saw HER walking down the street.
