Multiple Choice Question

[The Wife]

I think I would have taken the time to explain to her why I hunt, in a positive manner. I would rather have someone like that have a positive experience with a hunter, rather than some redneck smartarse comment that just justifies her position. I am of the firm belief it takes many many positive interactions to counter one negative one and to each their own, if she chooses to be a vegetarian so be it. I too am entitled to my views and if she opens it up, I get my say too

Agreed. Times like this are an opportunity for open dialogue that could have positive consequences.

[Wahoo]

Oh you're a hunter? How could you... I could never do that, I love animals way too much. I'm a vegetarian".

I would have replied with, 'Yin and yang'.

[Roper]

Its obvious she was hitting on you. Engaging in conversation. Women can't resist an outdoorsman.

[JF Sabou]

I'd laugh it off. Then offer to take her hunting, or play in the woods.
Here in Chelmsford (Sudbury) , those ladies at the desk offer hunter tips and
hot spots for hunting!! Gotta love our Northern Gals!!

[Fishy Wishy]

Tell her "Well that's a relief as I'm already married!"

[bushcannon]

Just brush it off. I get it all the time from non-hunters, especially women. My wife and step-Daughter are anti-hunting and if they start saying "Oh that poor deer or that birds is no longer in the sky" my reply is " You had no problem eating that burger or chicken breast"? I just ignore it. It sets them off every time.

Funny though, when I make a venison stew or venison burgers over the BBQ, it breaks my heart seeing my wife and step daughter eating Kraft dinner while my 3 kids and I enjoy a wild game meal.
