    Atleast when a gun goes off, it satisfies the shooter.

    You've clearly never fired a .22. I've had tequila with more kick.

    At the end of the day, once the shooter is happy, who cares about the target?

    Handguns are better than girls because they normally have serial numbers and with a little research you can easilly determine their actual date of birth thus avoiding certain statutory situations arising;)

    Although this can be easily remedied:

    Maybe its because women dont find men who like toy guns attractive?

    Its not the toy guns, its the men.

    A lot of airsofters, havent mentally aged past 15. 'some' are socially awkward, and a lot treat it as thier boys garden shed... When a female turns up, shes treated to the meercat effect, of every head turning when they automatically register that voice peaking 200hz over the average male one...

    feels awkward, and isolating, and frankly, a lot of topics at airsoft site, and forums, are misogynistic, rude, and sexist. 'why handguns are better than women' for example, topics on 'girls with guns' 'best totty' topics...
    hell, discussing leud acts regarding female players, hitting on female players or just being pervs.

    I got asked at one sight, by the site OWNER, if id play in my dpm trousers and sports bra, if i did... id get my green fee back....

    Don't think any have asked the average tubby male airsofter to strip down to his boxers for cash have they?

    Not everyone is like this... of course, theres a lot of charming, wonderful people. But I do find it annoying, when someone asks 'why arent there more women playing' when they dont look right in front of them.

    On that note, I cant belive this topic is still going. Its got to be one of the longest surviving of its type ever... the repeated niavity shown in these topics is frightening.

    In fairness its not like the airsoft field is a big "untapped resource" for pulling.

    And I'll 1000000% agree with you that the mental capaicty of most airsofters would probably put them out of reach of getting a lil you know what.

    And as you also rightly said alot of airsofters are what I'd consider "socially sketchy".In other words, Mon-Fri could definitly be on the sex offenders list.

    But it works both ways, I probably wouldnt be interested in a lady all up in airsoft, cause I'm pretty sure a that a collision of that much nerd would result in a wormhole of some sorts, and not the sorta hole you want.

    But there is always the exception, AVERT YOUR EYES CHILDREN AND PC BRIGADE
    sure wasnt there two lads that absolutely buried some young ones in the afters of Berget?

    Careful now, in the current climate, making factual statements about some knuckle dragger wanting to whiff your knickers might gets boards sued.

    In all fairness this is just a joke. It's not meant to offend anyone and so far everyone has been getting laughs out of it. I don't exactly want to turn this into a debate but you're taking this over the top Firekitten. I posted this for a laugh and to give the rest of you a laugh, so there's no need to take it personal.

    I don't think she, nor anyone else has taken this thread personally. However the topic/question arose of "Actually yeah, why aren't there more women?" and this type of discussion is partly to do with that.

    It's nothing against you, nor any of the posters in this thread. It is the same in EVERY single male-dominated activity. You naturally talk about what you have in common with others around you, and since you're surrounded by men, the conversation usually goes Guns -> Women -> Guns & Women -> LOL

    There was a good thread recently on Women & Airsoft which dealt with this kind of topic :)

    For any interested, you can find that thread here

    To be fair, while there is a massive amount of adolescent immaturity from players, I'd put a lot of it down to sheer juxtaposition of presence. I've coached women's sports and been the only guy among thirty or so women and had the same feeling to be honest. There's an element of it in anything where the gender balance is wildly skewed, regardless of which side it's in favour of.
    How it's dealt with (cat-calls or quiet whispers) is down to the attitude of those present. Most people might say something along the lines of "Hey, look at him/her", but ultimately won't take it any further. It's the typically vocal minority that cause the discomfort.

    Nah its the getting dressed up like an overweight,hugely unfit "soldier" and talking about plastic guns that shoot beads..thats why airsofters cant get women.

    How many people posting about "handguns"(as opposed to pistols) have ever actually carried or used a working firearm?

    No, its really not.
    A,
    I'll be honest, Lemming talks about 'plastic guns' and dresses up like a soldier, and hes actually quite fit :P
    Hell, I talk about toy guns....

    B,
    I have, and I've heard equal number of professionals (Military) refer to them as handgun, sidearm, pistol, or gat, so do tone down the attitude.

    Isn't it interesting how things can be taken just a little out of context and made to sound totally different?
