Dangerous Women

I do not exaggerate when I say that this is the most erotic video I have seen in months, and infinitely more sexy than the vapid “scantily clad chicks and guns” calenders and posters, because she knows what the hell she’s doing. (Except that her goofy shotgun technique and use of bunny fart reloads is dictated by the game she’s playing. Don’t shoot like that.)

esr had an interesting post on the theory that men find dangerous women attractive because the odds are they’ll bear dangerous sons. I don’t know enough evolutionary biology to judge this theory on its merits, but it makes a lot of sense to me. One of my favorite pictures of The Mrs is one of her dressed in her dojo gi, standing the surf on the beach, poised to throw some punches. Seriously, she looks like she’s ready to knock the photographer on his ass.

Conversely, it’s been my limited experience that men who don’t find dangerous women sexy, or are even threatened by them, are no account losers who can be safely ignored.

    I think it comes down to competence and intelligence.

    Women are physically weaker than men. For a woman to be dangerous she must rely on her wit and problem-solving ability, not just slug her way through it.

    Watching a woman shoot well is sexy, just like watching a woman drive a race car well is sexy. I think my wife is sexy when I see her working her not-dangerous job, because I see her in her element, doing what she does with skill and efficiency.

    Maybe it’s just me.

    I think there’s something to that. I don’t know how “dangerous” she was, but she was damn sure competent, and until recently, I didn’t realize just how beautiful Amelia Earhart was. Maybe it’s just the tight pants and knee high boots.

    I showed it to my wife and she said “the plumber is coming soon.”

    My special lady friend returned sexier from Babes with Bullets. We’re both actively scanning their training schedule for another class.

    I don’t know if it’s about having dangerous sons in particular. But there’s undoubtedly some evolutionary value in having a partner who can defend the cabin and offspring while you’re off hunting or whatever.

    I agree. Competent chicks are sexy. Competent chicks with weapons are hot-sexy.

    Damn fine work, ma’am. I have a 1300 too and it’s my favorite pump shotgun design. The first time I shot an 870, I thought it was broken because the slide won’t unlock and come back until you push forward on the slide! I sold it soon after.

    And did you guys notice how when the shotgun was empty, she wiped the shell in from beneath the gun, so that if she fumbled it, it would just fall back into her hand? Small details are very important.

    I love the pink holster!

    Thanks! I love my 1300. It’s actually the 3rd one in the household.

    I love my pink holster too. My husband made it. There are benefits to being married to a holster maker.

    I don’t find “dangerous women” attractive because they may have “dangerous” sons. I find them attractive because you can never have enough back up.

    Funny-assed reloads or not, she shoots almost as fast reloading as most people do just straight-up pumping.

    Anywise, second/thirded/fourthed/etc. on the “competent, skilled, and ‘dangerous’ women are sexy” schtick.

    Next time I see Tupelo, PDB, I’ll tell him that you think he’s erotic.

    :D
