You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

This conversation is fascinating, yet I'm somehow how stuck on BOYS and BULLWHIP.

Oh, don't I wish, Toddson. But when Pete, the StuntHusband, AND my parents all say NO FIRE FOR YOU, there isn't really much I can do to get around it. Even tho' one of those "dragonfire" flamethrowers for weeding and gardening purposes would be verrrry useful with our yard ...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Take this and put a whip in instead?
I'm still not sure why, but my brain is plenty happy trying to make shit up.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Hee, so I totally lurk in this thread, but you are all talking weaponry! So I have to pipe up to say that in April I'm going to this Becoming an Outdoorswoman thing, which is totally like camp for grownups. I can learn stuff like orienteering and still water paddling. BUT I have also signed up for basic firearm instruction and shotgun and archery! I cannot wait. I'm particularly excited because it's in the context of women, so I can learn gun stuff without having to deal with the testosterone issues. I won't know until later which classes I got into, but I will be happy with any of the many things I signed up for.

That was my shotgun class. Fuckers. The guy I went with sent me back upstairs to dress less feminine, and I was treated like a glass princess at the course. As a woman in IT and the martial arts, it was hands down the most sexist treatment I've ever received. I was a brave little kitten, I was, for picking up a skeery shotgun. They recommended I try rifles instead. I guess they're more femme.
I complained enough about it (and got backup from the guy who thought I'd initially dressed too girly in the first place) that I got a free pass for another class, but why would I want to go back to that same school?

That sounds awesome, Liese.
ita, that ... does not. Fuckers.

Femme doesn't send the home invaders running when they hear you chamber the shells.

The only gun I can think of remotely femme would be a little silver derringer that fits in a reticule. And still, lethal.
Stupid guys.
An all-female auto shop and an all-female shooting range would be cool to open. Oh, and an all-female construction team. Just because.
