Delta Force of Venus

Karen Schneider, writing at Nerve, on two things she learned to love while serving in the military:

The first time I was with a woman was a rushed, ecstatic culmination after months of a long, slow tease and decades of ignorance and denial. That is exactly how it was for me with guns.

Her moving, erotically charged essay is here. For a slightly tamer woman-meets-firearm love story, check out Abigail Kohn's 2001 Reason feature.

Best H&R subject header pun ever.

I'm a fan of guns and girls, but the writing itself didn't do much for me.

Try listening to 2pac's "Me and My Girlfriend" (but please avoid the sh**ty Jay-Z/Beyonce *remake*).

|9.12.07 @ 1:24PM|

I'll be in my bunk.

|9.12.07 @ 1:26PM|

Dammit jayne, beat me to it!

K.|9.12.07 @ 2:00PM|

I'll be in my bunk.

So you still got that rainstick, eh?

Women are good with guns. The best shot at my firing range was female. It's no wonder that the most beautiful one (Ann Coulter) said words to the effect that women should shoot guns instead of voting.

"There's no need to fear. Underzog is here!"

I always enjoyed Emily Procter's character on CSI:Miami. In one scene she walked into a weapons vault, paused looking around and said, "Be still my heart!" That was hot!

dude|9.12.07 @ 2:27PM|

Anne Coulter is "beautiful" if you're into women who look like men.

The Owner\'s Manual|9.12.07 @ 2:28PM|

Ann Coulter is beautiful in the genre of the upstairs apparition in Poltergeist.

Surely there must be comely gunners who looked amply nourished.

Franklin Harris|9.12.07 @ 2:37PM|

Damn. Nothing kills the mood like someone mentioning Ann Coulter.

|9.12.07 @ 2:57PM|

Ann Coult.... everyone out of the bunks, shows over.

|9.12.07 @ 3:54PM|

Lesbians with guns. Hot and scary at the same time.

|9.12.07 @ 9:47PM|

HOT.

That is all.

Warning Reason Hit & Run commentors ahead of time please not disrespect the transgendered by comparing them to Ann Coulter. The same goes for wo/men who like guns and respect the second amendment, please no comparisons to Ann Coulter.

The Wine Commonsewer|9.13.07 @ 1:32AM|

There are those men who find scantily clad women posing with dangerous looking weapons to be alluring. I'm not on that boat.

However, This chick, has got a much cooler, much bigger (if you will) gun.
