I am not by any means an expert on the Gender Wars.\u00a0 During the Sexual Revolution, I was MIA, and during the Battle Between the Sexes I was a POW.<\/p>\n
However, I\u2019ve noticed that cute threads on this topic sometimes pop up in the Internet gun forums.\u00a0 A few years ago there was one called \u201cTen Reasons Why Guns Are Better Than Women.\u201d (Your primary doesn\u2019t get jealous of your backup. You can get a silencer for a gun. You can trade a .44 for two .22s.)<\/p>\n
This was quickly followed by a riposte on the theme of \u201cTen Reasons Why Guns Are Better Than Men.\u201d (Guns don\u2019t leave spent casings all over the toilet seat.\u00a0 Guns work whether you stroke their ego or not. And, yes, you can trade a .44 for two .22s.)<\/p>\n
I was reminded of this by a recent \u201cjoke for guys\u201d on the Internet titled \u201cSpring Classes For Women.\u201d\u00a0 A self-styled shooterchick of my acquaintance responded.\u00a0 Apparently, one rule of life that should be right up there with \u201cdo not eat the yellow snow\u201d is, \u201cdo not tease smart women who carry guns and have shooting trophies.\u201d\u00a0 Her responses can be found in red, below.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll go hide behind solid cover now\u2026<\/p>\n
Spring Classes for Women at NOTE: DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY AND DIFFICULTY LEVEL OF THEIR CONTENTS, CLASS SIZES WILL BE LIMITED TO 8 PARTICIPANTS MAXIMUM.<\/p>\n Class 1<\/strong> It was Hot, it was cold, go outside if you don’t like it.<\/span><\/p>\n Class 2<\/strong> Doesn’t matter bitching is an art form, a means of expression.<\/span><\/p>\n Class 3<\/strong> Not if they may have ammo.<\/span><\/p>\n Class 4<\/strong> A suitcase is rigid, hard to the touch. A purse needs to hold all your personal items, a camera, a recorder, and all his shit you need to keep track of. They don’t need to; they can happily coexist with the Hair\/beard trimmer that men leave on the counter.<\/span><\/p>\n Class 6<\/strong> When is there a break on Glocktalk?<\/span><\/p>\n Class 7<\/strong> No<\/span><\/p>\n Class 8<\/strong> Do they have an equivalent for crabby men?<\/span><\/p>\n Class 9<\/strong> This is a class on Fantasy\/Mythology<\/span><\/p>\n Class 10<\/strong> Or you can be like a man and park 2 blocks away. Yeah, slow down two blocks before you need to.<\/span><\/p>\n Class 12<\/strong> Leave his butt at home, take the plastic.<\/span><\/p>\n Class 13<\/strong> Just go to Walgreens, they have everything you need and if you look long enough you will find it all.<\/span><\/p>\n Class 14<\/strong> Yes, if he gets the ammo off\/out of it, you can actually cook with it.<\/span><\/p>\n Upon completion of any of the above courses, diplomas will be issued to the survivors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am not by any means an expert on the Gender Wars.\u00a0 During the Sexual Revolution, I was MIA, and during the Battle Between the Sexes I was a POW.
