Sure, Sean.

He'd fire it. If there were a home invader present and the closest gun at hand were the wife's Hello Kitty rifle, he'd use it to defend his family. (Though I recommend the Hello Kitty 20-gauge for that application.)

And I'm usually hesitant to get into the arena of "what do real men do?" I'm a chick, and I hate to issue directives to the complicated sex.

But in a heteranormative context, the real question is, Would a real man own a pink gun? No. Maybe one with cherry stocks. Hot pink, however, with a Hello Kitty logo on it? No.

Hell—I don't think I'd own one, despite the fun you all have regarding my hot-pink iPod and my flower-tattooed Motorola phone. A girl has to draw the line somewhere.

1 I'd own one but I'm afraid this will lead to MORE anti-gun legislation. 1. It appeals to children. . .therefore it will lead to more accidental deaths and shootings.(A replay of the Joe Camel argument also) 2. It is MORE dangerous to police because it may look like a toy(as opposes to "assault weapon" lookalikes that look cooler and more deadly than the sport versions, but are really no more so. Critical seconds may be lost. 3. It's cool, so it has to go! 4. Blah, blah, blah. Note: I don't agree with these reasons, I just know what will come. I respond the same way to any weapon that is produced.

2 I was still reading old-fashioned "feminist" literature when Smith & Wesson brought out the "Ladysmith." A lot of gun-grabbers were not amused. Which might be a good enough reason to get one, of course.
