Ok so last night in my Advanced Composition class we were talking about gender roles. The prof asked what gender roles we had resisted. Since no one was talking I decided to put in my 2¢. I said most girls don't like guns, and since I was raised by a gun nut I am unlike most other girls. I love guns and enjoy going to tha range with my dad. My prof gave me the most horrified look. It was as if I had shown her one. The cool thing is one of the other girls kicked in and said she doesn't go shooting or anything much, but she used to do archery. She said was fine with guns and all, but doesn't have time to do it.
I know there are a lot of females here who like to shoot and collect guns and all that. So I guess what I was wondering is it really that big of a "gender role" and stereotype that only guys like guns? Maybe I'm just a sheltered little gun nut raised by a gun nut.
