My guess is that if you carry at home and male, you are more likely to be single. Women are the balm that calms mens passions. In other words, they put a clamp on it.

The question assumes that you carry at home, if you do not, then this poll isn't for you.

FYI: I carry at home and am single. I would love to hear if there are single women carrying at home.

Wow, so far, I am soooo wrong! Good though, to see the results.

Married with 2yo son. I carry at home (unless I'm drinking beer like right now). When we go out, my wife makes sure I have my gun on me.
 
Why would women "put the clamp on it" anymore than men might? My fiancee is just as pro-gun and pro-self-defense as I am. While I don't personally carry at home, it's not because she keeps me from doing so in any way.

I think some people still don't understand just how many female shooters are out there - and I'm not just talking about the types who go to humor their men - I've seen plenty of ladies at the range who are there on their own, or if they are with guys, they've got their own guns and are actively engaged in the shooting and having a good time at it.

My problem has always been my choice in women (my extended family agrees). I have not run into many that are pro-gun. Just my luck I guess.
 
Stick with your own kind. If they aren't pro gun, they better get walking.

First date I bring up guns. They recoil or turn their nose up, I ditch them, leave them to pay the bill. Serves them right.

Now that I'm married to a pro hunting, pro gun, pro self defense, pro American woman, I don't need to play games.
 
carry at home

Well not carry on my person but real close. Next to the computer Walther p99 40 nite stand Glock 31 357 sig bed room closet winchester 1300 punp 12 gauge. close enough plus i have a shepard and a lab as a early warning alarm. And frist line of defence.:scrutiny:
 
I don't carry on my person, at home, unless I'm outside. Inside, I keep my P228 within arms reach and out for my GF also, when I'm at work.
 
Female here. I carry or have a gun and/or guns BY me even if it is not in my robe's pocket now. I am not wearing a robe at this moment. I do not wear a shoulder holster or western cowboy belt in the house normally with my 'relaxation attire'! My firearm is within my hand's reach now. Same as having one or FILL in the blank 'amount' in another room. I did the same thing in my home back east. I had a gun near me and so did my late husband. I ended up having one ON me outside of my home on my very rural farm/lake land too. My own land and the house that we built. There was NO CCW back there at that time OFF of my land or IN my vehicle either.

I did this when I first moved out here and 'camped' too. Butt up to wilderness areas. I open carried outside of my former Coleman pop up camper and had guns INSIDE - ready to reach if needed. I did this in a log cabin rental way UP in the same place - remote wilderness in the mountains.

I packed or had a firearm within reach of me as a young married lady when I moved from the east coast to his Great Lakes home state, as a widow = single back there and out here and as a remarried lady now.

My guess is that if you spend a significant portion of your life on the internet you are single and male. :D

I do not understand why people enter into relationships with others that require them to change for the worse.
 
If I were single I wouldn't carry as much as I do. I'm not as concerned with protecting myself as I am with protecting my family.

lol...That's short-sighted. Just because my date is anti-gun, that doesn't mean I want to be enemies. She still may be qualified to be a friend that leaves in the morning.:evil:
 
i carry at home. it really doesn't have anything to do with my martial status though (single w/ live-in SO). i carry about 98% of the time no matter where i'm at or who i'm with. i'm easing myself into Open Carry too. my SO is all for it. she understands. i'm pretty non-traditional when if comes to social relations, but just plain old school when it comes to gun rights. i'm happy to have an SO that understands that.

I don't understand your poll. Youask if we carry at home, then give the choices single, married, significant other. So is your polll to know if we are married or not, or if we carry at home or not as was your poll question. You certainly cannot figure one from the other in any definitive manner.

No anti-gun women are worthy of sleeping with me.
 
Glenn, I think the SO choice means you are living with someone and single is living alone and not currently dating anyone.
 
Carry at home? It's the only place you can carry in NJ :fire: :eek::banghead:
