Are we talking about someone being vocally rude, or just assuming that women don't know what they are talking about? IMO there is nothing wrong with a firearm salesman talking to someone like they don't know jack until that person starts to talk the talk. Then it can be moved to a mature firearm conversation.
Now if after she starts talking the talk, and the seller doesn't move the conversation to the big kids table, fine, he is a jerk. But until a woman (or anyone really) shows they know what they are talking about, I think its fair game to start the conversation like they don't.
I got the impression from the OP's post that they just walked away right when the first assumption was made she wasn't knowledgeable about firearms.
