Its not just them and I suppose there are some women who are feminists who have no issues with guns.
But if one was to actually label themselves as a feminist it is probably certain that they would lean against guns.
Years ago my wife worked for a private company with excellent health insurance. I had free military but her doctors office was closer so I decided to start going there. Turned out it was on office of only 6 women doctors on staff.... no men. I'm filling out the paperwork...... do you have diabetes, any existing conditions, do you wear contacts, etc. etc. and I came upon a box that said "DO YOU HAVE GUNS IN THE HOUSE?" This gave me pause.... what business of it is theirs and yes my job required me to carry one.
My immediate reaction that this was a feminist thing. Yes I could see where they in the interest of total care, including mental a gun may be a factor but I was not at the psychiatrist. What, if my wife came in for stress or not getting pregant because of it (say I was a regular citizen) the doctor would say it was because there is a gun in the house? It seemed to me to be neither here nor there and it was obvious what kind of agenda was going on there.
What if your wife broke her arm and say 2 years later sprain her ankle? The feminists might suggest abuse or something. Who knows but again it seemed to be hooey. I put the clipboard down and left.
I told my wife about this and she mentioned it to the doctor the next time she went. Turns out that they had been trying to attract the huge number of military retirees in the area to use them as they can use a private doctor. Turns out they thought the reason that they were not getting them was because the guy in the couple was uncomfortable with all women doctors. Since so many people were just leaving like me.
One of the doctors called me about it. I explained that is was because of the gun thing and the doctor said she had never thought of that. I never went back though.

I am a male so therefor not a feminist.... I also support the peoples right to bear arms...... I am firmly for more regulation, and I know, "If they make us register our guns, theyll come take them away!"...that holds no more water wthan the the pro choice stance that "If we let them regulate abortions theyll take it away completely", dont confuse the regulation of firearms as denying the right in itself, any reasonable person would think it was a bad idea for an average citizen to be allowed to own and keep a nuclear warhead in his home, the possesion of a nuclear warhead is obviously illegal, when the laws concerning this were put in place the government did not come out and take everyones guns.

. . . because the work of tomorrow are the plans of today. In a perfect world the frogs in biology classrooms would be the pets of the mediocre and the ducks of the pond would be the taxi drivers of the politicians. Do you see what I am saying? If we just go through life looking at the moon asking ourselves why it isn't our tyrant, then we will eventually fall down a manhole and break a leg. You are a great man to ask such a meaningful question.

c'mon man, you can't call the entire gun control crowd feminists. yeah sure, the two groups, feminists and gun control lobbyist/activists, are generally viewed as liberal and may have members in both groups, but gun control crowd is in no way entirely made up of feminists. c'mon man, get off the BS or a feminist packin' a rod or a heater might just shoot you!

Did you neglect the eighteenth exchange? They already took away your appropriate to offer, distribute or eat alcohol and it became into no longer by using inebriated drivers. It became into by using inebriated husbands. in this occasion, they do no longer seem to be thinking a revocation of the 2d exchange, they only desire to cut back your ability to be extra effectual armed than the U. S. military or the nationwide shelter

Where do you people come up with this material?
You should be writing for Ellen Degeneres or someone with s deeply quirky schtick. Sabrina Matthews could do a great deal with this kind of material, too.
