Reader Feedback on "Range of Desire"

Hi Karen, I don't know if you'll get my feedback this way, but it seemed more fun to email you directly after reading this than via blackboard or yahoo, and I know that I get emails from people directly who've responded to my salon articles. This was a great piece, and I'm thrilled that it's being anthologized. I love the parallel story lines and the way you talk about being glad that you and your desires got together. It's a wonderful essay about the power and pleasure and necessity of desire itself--at least that's how I read it in part. Definitely has The Third Thing. Malena

Excellent! As a pro-gun liberal Democrat I know exactly how you feel. Don't worry, you are far less alone than you think. I write a liberal gun blog and have met countless others like us. I'm a straight man myself, but I recommend you look for a chapter of the Pink Pistols near you if you want to combine your love of women with your love of recreational shooting. Personally, I'm more of a classic rifle man but I do have to confess to a handgun or 3 as well. They are just such aesthetically pleasing devices. Like old typewriters.
