I’d never carry a concealed gun. It’s an idiot thing to do.

But if you ever do, it should be in a shoulder holster or similar where it never leaves your body. Ever.

It shouldn’t be in your purse or your briefcase or anywhere else.

Normally I’d not recommend shoulder holsters as they aren’t as safe as other holster types to the individual with the gun, but in the case of shoulder holsters the risk is all on YOU. And no one can take the gun from you without you noticing.

So if you must be a fucktard and carry a concealed weapon in a non-combat environment, then use a shoulder or other similar on-body holster. It’s the most likely way to only kill yourself when you do something stupid with your gun.

And there are options for women now, too, which was not true for a long time. This and this seem pretty good.

How to properly draw from a shoulder holster without shooting yourself.

Note: I have only used the standard US Army shoulder holster and one my dad owned, brand unknown.

The US Army one was not designed for concealment, though, but for access.

Because my media landscape skews heavily female, it’s shocking when I experience the utter sausagefest in media that most people are subjected to.

-Usually, I listen to about 90% female musicians.

-Read about 60% female authors, with usually 80% female protagonists.

-Interact with nearly all women as friends. (Sorry, can’t do raging masculine entitlement which 99% of men have, and am terrible at masculine posturing necessary to fit in with men.)

-Deliberately watch TV shows and movies with at least 50%+ women.

Watching and listening to media where women are 50% or more of the protagonists, antagonists and in general background characters, it’s weird when I look at the media landscape of the normals where women are 10% of 15% (at most) of characters, directors and writers.

How do normal people stand this, accept this? So terrible.

I don’t think I deserve any special award for this. It is just my preference as in my opinion women-produced media is often better – they must try harder to get to the same place men do, so the quality is often a great deal higher.

And furthermore, why would I want to ignore the stories of half the world, especially as the story of the underdog (which women all too often are in society) is usually more interesting?

Whenever I venture out accidentally into the media world of the normal people, I hardly know what hit me as my brain is saying, Did all the women, like, die or something?

Just can’t understand it.
