ZOMG! How awful! War on Women!! Booo! Hiss!
There is no doubt that the “Gun Safety” Control crowd is a humorless bunch. You look at them and even when they are smiling for the cameras, they have that “I need to go to the bathroom really bad” undertone.
And dear Antis, don’t worry about our women. They can dish it out as well as they get it, hell maybe better.
From Limatunes:
Ten Reasons Guns are Better Than Men
10# A gun doesn’t complain when you take it shopping. Even to buy “personal” products.
9# You can make a gun dress in whatever you think it will look best in and it doesn’t complain about itching, scratching or that you’re “not accepting it the way it is.”
8# A gun is specific on what it wants for dinner.
7# A gun will always be there when you need it.
6# Guns don’t threaten to rip the arms off of other guns you look at.
5# Guns don’t go off by themselves or with other guns and decide to do REALLY STUPID stuff.
4# You can take a gun to the gunsmith without it complaining that it’s just “a flesh wound.”
3# A gun maintains the same shape and size no matter how much you feed it.
2# Even if you let other girls handle your gun it will always come back to you (even if it takes a little effort to get it back).
#1 A gun knows the perfect answer to all those tough questions we women ask: shut up and lay there until she needs you.
As a man, I feel triggered by this list. I shall now go to my Safe Space.
UPDATE: How old is the joke? We have this counter list published by Kathy Jackson in 2000 at the Firing Line forum.
To be fair, #s 9, 8, and 7 apply to women as well, and if you replace “rip the arms off of” with “stab,” then so does 6.
I’m a big fan of not getting stabbed.
As far as “people” vs. “objects,” I’ve put some thought into it, and I don’t think I would mind being objectified. It does no harm to me if someone wants to think about me while getting off.
