A few days later, I emailed TD, asking why women buy guns. “The main reason women want a gun is for a sense of security,” she wrote. “Women want to be able to defend themselves and their family. A firearm can stop an attack of force. It’s also an equalizer for those with reduced mobility.” Equalizer. The word stuck in my mind. A handgun makes the short woman tall, the anxious woman less afraid. Right now, guns are a lightning rod topic, reviled and defended with equal passion. You can’t fire a gun without stepping into a war, without getting into the politics of it. Of course, that doesn’t change the fact that firing a gun made me feel powerful, if only for an afternoon.
