LOL, some of us never lived in the 50's - I for one wasn't born until 1962.
I also don't hang out in those "worlds" where the histronics that you refer to would occur, and if I thought this was one of them I wouldn't be here. The fact is that gender had nothing to do with my analogy. I'd apply the same analogy to a new male shooter who had been put off shooting by a bad previous experience and who had been successfully reintroduced to firearms.
But then I guess I'm just not PC enough to see the imaginary implied gender bias in the original analogy. Almost seems like a form of what they call projection.
And I kinda think it is up to the mods to decide when a thread needs to be closed, isn't it?
