Speaking of Chicks and Guns – updated
In an update to the chicks with machine guns post, Aunt B. (our token feminist) says I’ve oppressed her and she didn’t notice:
I think it depends. If the gun-rights movement is filled with lots of images and stories of ordinary women enjoying shooting and owning guns and going to the range for our own reasons and videos of sexy women shooting guns are just a small subset of the images of women shooting guns, then, no, I don’t think it turns women off to guns. If anything, we see that men who are gun-nuts do the same things that other men do–one of which is enjoying looking at women in bikinis.
Well, I’ve the feminist OK now! Any way, I do both. And mostly the former tales of ordinary women. She is, however, glad we even addressed how women might feel.
