Hey, lots of women own guns these days too. More and more women are on the shooting range than ever before.

You imply, then, that you may also be a member of that "culture"? I wonder why it so commonly is assumed that men primarily consider self-defense as important, while women are excluded? imp

No, but I've considered it. I'd love to get on a shooting range and learn to use a gun. I've been planning to do that, but then other things get in the way and I forget. Short-term memory loss is for the birds, hahaha.

And true, people don't always think of women as a primary means of protection in the home. In fact, they're still viewed as targets, but that is slowly beginning to change. Just a week or so ago, I heard a news story about a woman who was attacked by a man. She was packin' and she was able to get her gun and she shot him and killed him. When that happens, I say bye bye and good riddance to bad rubbish. That's one less cretin in the world. Nice one, girlfriend.

If I were a women, and had to navigate around some of our cities, alone, I would certainly take a course in self defense, get a concealed carry permit, then buy a small pistol, and one of these purses with a gun pouch. There is no shortage of idiots who look upon women as "easy prey".

I agree, that's what I'd like to do. I do carry mace. One in my purse and one on my keychain. I figure it's better than nothing.
