Pro-RKBA dating

I tried Jdate. Man was I unimpressed. The women were looking for rich men, and the men were looking for hot women..... that was it.

I lost faith in my own people from that site. :(

They're probably not representative of your average Jewish individual, but still it was a downer.

I'm pretty sure had I put something about guns in my profile, I'd have gotten some questions from the admins. :(

I was just more concerned with trying to find somebody who was good at heart and was the kind of person I am looking for. My questions were all geared around that. I'm more concerned with that than anything else. RKBA is just going to complicate things. I'd rather have somebody get to know me before they find out I have any interest in guns or anything gun-related. Once they know if they like me and if I like them, then other things can be divulged and you can take it from there.
 
No gungals in Cali?

If I could find a pro-RKBA chick in the DPRK my head would probably explode. Have not met a chick yet that was ever into guns or would ever even discuss them.

Wow, most of the girls I met in Cali were pro-gun. Most of the the first time shooters I have taken to the range were female. Sucks that you can't find them. Where are you looking? The Castro District?
 
I offer hope for my fellow DPRK subjects...

I just got back from a date. Somehow we started talking about shooting. Come to find out, she held a CWP in Mass (Where she's originally from).

+1

Then, she suggests we go shooting, and has heard of the range I've been frequenting as of late.

+2

Then as we cruise back to her house (Get your minds out of the gutter. we were meeting her roomates for dinner.) Guess what we pass... The EFFING RANGE. She lives not five minutes from said range.

+3

Maybe I'm finally cashing in all of that good Karma I've banked...
 
The gun gods are smiling on you, Donut.

(OT tangent: are there any gun gods in mythology? I just did a quick Google on "God of Guns" that turned up nothing but some actor names ...)

I don't know of any mythological gun gods. I do know Catholicism has several saints of hunters, handgunners, artillerymen and explosives people, but they're saints, not gods.
 
Barbara is the patron saint of artillary. :)

As far as pro-gun or not, I think most men want a woman who will conform to them. So shooting or not shooting isn't the issue itself, as being accepting of the guy's hobbies.
 
Barbara,

While I cannot speak for all men, many of us would be happy with someone who is understanding of our hobbies, and who will not try to change what they are as soon as "I do" has been said.

I forger what comic said it, but it went something like this:

"Men marry a woman, hoping she will never change. Women marry a man hoping to change him"

Gun owning is NOT a requirement for any future GF's for me (as soon as this &%*#&ing divorce gets finalized, I swear it will never end), but being an anti sure is a show stopper.

Conform? Those who want to be what I want them to be need not apply, (unless they somehow are already). What most guys in my position need is someone who can be THEMSELF and not define themselves as being Mrs. Thumper723.
 
I guess I've never met that guy. :)

In my case, I'm usually the one who is afraid of having to change. I tried my best to do it before, but it was a losing cause. I am who I am.

Barbara, please don't put me in that category. I don't resonate with conformists regardless of gender.

I'm looking for a strong and strong-minded woman, intelligent, communicative, who has her own path that is at least congruent with mine (at least going in the same direction, and hopefully overlapping in personal and professional goals), who can accept me for who I am (and me accept her for who she is), who is open to evolution during life.

If she's anti, no go. If she's either pro-RKBA or open to it, then there's promise.

[Gees, that sounds like an ad or something ... :uhoh:]

{added by edit} And you said it well in your last post: I am who I am.

Ditto that.

Patron saint of artillery, huh?
Bigga bada boom! ;)
 
I've had the worst luck in the Md-DC-NoVA area the last few years....is it too much to ask to hope to find a woman that can be your best friend, share interest, thats attactive, sense of humor...can show off that little black dress but still get down and dirty in a pair of hiking boots?

Instead all I meet are shallow chicks that are just looking for a sperm donor with a wallet......

I would rather be alone for the right reasons than with someone for the wrong ones.
 
Well, if I ever do decide to date, it'll definitely have to be someone open to guns. I'd probably scare the beejeebers out of anyone else. :neener:

I think I'm too stuck in my own little world by now anyway. I've gotten very self-centered over the years.
 
Down here in Texas

I am mostly worried about the women being a better shot than I am! In all seriousness, however, I enjoy the change from where I grew up (Chicago area) to rural Texas. I think that being pro-RKBA is important in finding a date, however, I find that I agree with what other's have said- it is impossible for people to fundamentally change who they are, or nearly so- therefore, if someone is hardcore anti, I don't exactly flirt with them, no matter how pretty they may be. Inner beauty- in the form of love of the RKBA, is what matters. Now, I am a mere student of the law, so I understand that I lack both common sense and worldliness- but that has been my initial impression of dating and RKBA.

Actually... I'd rather not find someone who is ACCEPTING of my hobbies, but who actually ENJOYS them herself.

My dream woman wouldn't share a lane with me... She'd want her own.
She would hate to ride in my racecar... because she'd rather be driving hers.

See? ;)

While I don't consider myself "most men", I can't respect a woman who conforms to me. And it has been my experience that it is women who strive to change their men. Regardless, I am fortunate enough to have found a woman who at least grudgingly accepts my interest in firearms, (Moreso when things go bump in the night.)

As for finding women in "urban/blue" areas who are inclined towards more "rural/red" activities, I haven't been to a city in the U.S. that doesn't have them, (Though to be fair I have never been to NYC, Baltimore, Maryland, etc.) Maybe it is that the kind of girls you are attracted to or are meeting are more inclined towards a leftist mindset or a sheeple mindset. (I've met plenty of antis at church, so finding a conservative is no garauntee.) Hope it gets better for ya.

Yeah, I know how that is. In my case, it's guns, horses, deer hunting (among other things). I've heard plenty of times that common interestest helps. So in my case, the "perfect woman" (at least in theory) would already be into this stuff when we meet/met. So instead of trying to change each other, we'd be sharing the interest while pursuing it as far as each respectively cares to.
 
There is a land where guns are plentiful and women are beautiful. A place where beer flows and the steak is tasty. It has a culture and diversity known around the world, and is like no other place I have been to. It beckons you...come....come..to....

TEXAS!

:neener:

This I know...

On a road trip to Indiana, we stopped at The Big Texan in Amarillo. Between the Country Fried Steak, the ice cold beer, and our amazing waitress, I never wanted to leave. In fact, I almost didn't; My friends had to bribe me with a large foam cowboy hat to leave the resturaunt.

I still remember her name... or... maybe I don't. But I do remember it was a cute-as-hell name. Katlin, maybe?
 
Texas=Too FN HOT

ACK! I spent some time in SA in November and it was still 90 bloody degrees!

I can't IMAGINE what Summer is like......Vermont is more my climate ;)
 
*shrugs* I've found that not looking for a woman, and being satisfied with my lot in life results in the perfect woman falling into my lap.

Oh, yeah...she loves good beer, knows more about football than I do, teaches high school algebra, laughs at my jokes (and has a bunch of her own jokes to tell!), and can be "ladylike" and "one of the guys" all at the same time.

And no, you can't have her. :evil:
 
So Oleg...when are you going to start up the dating site? I recently have found myself single again! (big surprise). I'll be happy to be the 1st member! :D
 
What did we ever do before the internet?

Almost 30 years ago, when I married my native-Texan*, she wanted a 10/22 as a wedding present. It is still "her" rifle, and I need to ask permission if I want to use it. Same goes for "her" Makarov.

(Good thing that I have another Makarov, and about eight other .22 rifles!)

*If you are in California, "go east young man", but stop before you get to Austin.
 
Well, speaking for myself, I don't insist on sharing the interest, only acceptance. That said, the only thing beat beats a girl who shoots for flipping my switches is one who outshoots me, and outsmarts me (also, interests in flying, history, high-performance driving and long-distance road trips are definite pluses).

Not being "in the driver's seat" isn't a big deal; then again, I don't drive anyway.

Oleg, I'd be interested in seeing how this works out.

Now if only I could find an "Urban Rifles for Couples" class and a young lady interested in taking it with me, that'd give "hot date" whole new meaning... :eek: :what:

Of course, then there's the problem of a little BATF&E Form 4 (see sig).
