In one January 2012 poll, the gender gap on "concealed carry" was a massive 27 points -- 59% approval among men, 32% among women.
We've got work to do.
We are sometimes our worst enemy on this one.

A while back when a thread was started about pink guns, lots of folks were against it saying they didn't want "sissy guns". When the owner of brilliant backstraps posted some of her work on another forum, she was flamed for it (I happen to have one of her glitter designs on my IDPA gun, it has the texture of fine grit sandpaper). We should be supportive of programs such as A Girl and a Gun and other women's shooting groups. We learned from this last election that losing the female vote is political suicide.

I'll even go so far as to say that the short demo that Jessie Duff did on Hannity did more for our cause than anything you will ever see on TV from a male spokesman.
