So the thread with suggestions for ways women could carry got me thinking... How (and when) do you tell a women (or a man) that you're dating (or heading to the bedroom with) that you are carrying a gun? It seems that if someone puts their arms around your waist they are going to find it...if they pull your belt or shirt off - that's definitely going to happen. How do you handle this situation? When do you mention it? What do you do with the gun when things kick off in the bedroom? Women who carry - did you carry when you were single/mingling? How did your date react when they found out? I've had to deal with this in the past - but I'm curious to hear different perspectives.

Quit hanging out on Capitol Hill and you won't have that problem. Seriously though...if your dating...you should probably have the 2A discussion before you get to that point. You never know...he might be packing too. (Or she in my case) at which point there really isn't that much of a problem. Or...they might be an Anti-gunner...in which case you're litterally sleeping with the enemy.

If she is undressing me, she has already known for quite some time that I carry. It's a first date convo for me.
If they aren't comfortable with the idea, then they arent for me, and there is no point of going further. I'm not slutty.

I suspect their encounter went something like this:

So you're saying that you freaked her out so much that she figured her best bet to keep you away from her was to arm herself? I guess that's one way to do it!

That is SO going on the first date questions list! Hopefully, I will get that response at some point!

My wife and I went shooting on our second date. 10 years before I started carrying.

If I were to ever need to re-enter the dating world, the gun topic would come up very early on. If he didn't carry that would be fine with me, as long as he wasn't anti-2nd, that would be pretty hard to deal with. I can't imagine finding a guy like that, um... [i]masculine[i] enough, to be quite honest. joao01's meme says it all. ETA: apparently I can't pull off italics yet...
