Women, would it make you uncomfortable being with a guy who carried a gun with him all the time?

Question

Even in public places. Would you feel weary of dating him?

Answer 1

Yeah - I don't think it's necessary to be packin' heat at Costco, Olive Garden or Micky D's. Or wait, maybe he should.

*scratching head*

Answer 2

Not if it was his profession- if he was a police officer, etc. But just for the average Joe, I wouldn't want him carrying his gun with him all the time. Whats the point?

Answer 3

Yes, hypothetically if I discovered that someone I was dating carried a gun at all times,  I would probably dump him.  I feel we just would not get along well because of our incompatible personality traits. (Note, for all you who do carry guns, I'm not saying you're necessarily bad people.  You're just not on my wavelength.)

I'm sure someone could think of an exceptional situation in which this would not be the case. (Like others have said, if he had some legit professional reason.  Though my grandfather was a police officer and I don't *think* he carried a gun outside of work.)

Answer 4

yes, he could hurt sum1, violence is never the answer

Answer 5

I don’t think I could even be around this person; I know it sounds very stereotypical but this guy would really freak me out. I just don’t think they; are a necessary commodity for every human being to be roaming about with.

Answer 6

If it was for his job I may be understanding, but if he just carried it to carry it I would question it and him.

Answer 7

I'm a man and I would feel uncomfortable with a guy who carried a gun all the time.

Why would he be doing this? is he a cop? a security gaurd? does he live around alot of wildlife? or is he just such a paranoid trouble maker that he feels he needs it, with him  " all the time"?

I would be very Leary about hanging out with such a person

Answer 8

no it just means that he fights like a wimp and that he lives in fear.

Answer 9

I don't understand all these responses from women here. A responsible citizen who legally carries a concealed firearm only make things safer. You can't always wait for the cops to mosey on down to your emergency. The few minutes it takes for help to arrive can be the time it took for someone to kill you. One day, you could find yourself in such trouble.

If you are mature and responsible enough, it would be good if you were to legally carry a concealed firearm. Illegally possessed or obtained weapons are a completely different story.

Answer 10

Yeah, guys who just randomly carry guns wouldn't be worth dating.

unless he's a police officer. OR, if you live in a bad area.

Answer 11

My neighborhood's biggest threat is a day without the ice-cream man. I educated myself enough to live somewhere with a low crime rate and a superb police department. I don't need a gun and my man doesn't either.

Answer 12

Unless he's in law enforcement of some kind, I definitely would feel uncomfortable with someone who had a gun on him at all times. That's because he could have a hair-trigger temper and use it in situations that have nothing to do with protection such as getting angry at someone who cut him off in traffic. Also, what if he decides to point it at you to get you to do something you really don't want to do such as have s*x with him when you're not interested or ready? The point is that he has more power when he has a gun and a lot of men aren't afraid to abuse that power. I'm sorry some of you don't understand that but that's the way I see it.

Answer 13

Probably a LITTLE bit mate..

Answer 14

I wouldn't feel uncomfortable, I'd want him the h**l away from me! I don't want anything to do with gun freaks, they are mental!

Answer 15

Yes, I find that people who carry guns *all the time* are more prone to snap at any time. I would mos. def. feel uncomfortable.

Answer 16

I'd like a gun that I could carry with me at all times.

But I don't know if a gun who carried a guy with him at all times would be waving it around for his date to see.

Answer 17

Yes. It would make me wary of under what circumstances he intended to use it.

Answer 18

Yes.  Unless we were in some foreign country where that was the norm and necessary, I would think that carrying a gun was symptomatic of a persecution complex, and that he was mentally unstable.

Answer 19

Yes!  I would be very uncomfortable, and probably not very likely to continue dating him.  I would always be afraid that he would misuse the gun, and possibly on me!

Answer 20

Definitely!

Even if it's for protection. The best deals you got for that are your fists.

Learn to use them and your better off.

Answer 21

I enjoy guns, very much. That said if my husband took his every where I may worry. He is registered to carry a concealed weapon, but do ya think you need it everywhere? In the US you don't really need it in a lot of places. Dannuelle my favs are M16, AR15, SAW and 9mil. But if you are going to carry one you should be proficient in using it and caring for it. Guns are not evil, they are often used by evil people but they are simply inanimate objects.

Answer 22

I carry my "gun" with me all the time, ladies love it!

Answer 23

Question #2:  How many of you have ever fired a gun before?   Of those who said they would be afraid I'm guessing the percentage is very very low.  It seems most women are just brainwashed by the media to think Gun=Bad, and nothing beyond that equation.

Answer 24

yes i would

Answer 25

No not at all. My sister's boyfriend has a gun he keeps on him no matter where he goes. He is licensed and it is registered. I also carry a gun on me but not out in public. I leave it in my car and keep it concealed in the glove compartment. I am also licensed and my gun is registered.

EDIT: By the way do you carry a gun on you? My fav is the Mac11
