Or at least need to be reminded of, regardless of gender.

Every local gun store I know of includes a trigger lock, and anyone I know with kids and guns keeps their firearms secure, but then I don't care to associate with idiots. Even my wife and I, who are childfree and only go shooting for fun at paper targets at least have everything locked away (biometric safes are pretty cheap).
