I am younger than many of you, and didn't grow up around firearms, but in 2008 we moved back west and decided to get into hunting. While we were looking around, my wife, who did grow up around firearms but never really took to them, liked the look of an FNP9 and asked to see it. It was the first auto pistol she had ever picked up that she could rack the slide. She was so excited. Bought that gun right then and there.
Me? Well, I still don't have a handgun (finances, you know), but my wife lets me borrow hers on occasion.
EDIT:
Forgot about the advice portion. My advice is to treat a firearm like dating. You haven't really got a clue what you like in a girl/guy until you start to date some, so just pick a likely candidate and start. After a while, you figure out what really matters to you, but until then, just have fun with the process.
