Where are you finding these women that like guns??? I've been up to Tampa/St. Pete many times and never run into any chicks like that. If you've come upon a group of pro gun women you'd better share! I live in Sarasota, I know for sure there aren't any around here. I've met some who would tolerate guns but never one that's been into it...
I wish I could say that it happens all the time! [shrugs] It is definitely the exception to the rule. Most of the time I have the same experience you do.
A girl that I was dating down in Sarasota almost blew a gasket when she saw that I was carrying a few weeks after we started dating. After she gave me the whole, "They scare me/Don't come into my house with one/What do you need that for," routine - I told her if she didn't like it she could take a hike, but I wasn't going to stop carrying or compromise my interest in shooting for anyone or anything.
Now that is not to say that I am some big hardarse about everything. Most of the time I take a much more tactful position and work them over to my side of thinking with debate. Since I knew this wasn't logically founded, I decided to give her both barrels and let her know that it wasn't up for discussion.
She got the point, but it was a huge red flag. Most people here would agree that being afraid of an inanimate object doesn't jibe well with logic. So it didn't surprise me to see that one go down in flames a short while thereafter.
Maybe sometime we could hangout? I wonder how many people on THR are in the area.
Happybob -Not yet. I probably will mention it this weekend though
I was wondering what she would think about this thread. She is really cool about everything though.
Last night, her guy friends were talking about going to a strip club. Later on, when we were driving home, she asked me if I wanted to go. Now don't get me wrong, I like to look at really hot girls as much as the next guy. But I would much rather go home with mine
In so many words, I told her that it wasn't a big deal and I was getting tired anyway. Then she says, "Cause I would have given you some money so that you could've gotten a lapdance."
That was really funny. I don't know how sincere she was about it. She may just have been saying it tongue in cheek. But she sounded pretty serious. lol
