Abstract
Today, despite national campaigns and mass shootings, gun sales continue to rise. The majority of gun owners in the United States are men, and prior research has documented the complex relationship between masculinity and gun ownership. However, a majority of the research has remained on the micro level. In this article, we look at the effects of men’s unemployment on gun ownership. Using both national- and state-level Federal Bureau of Investigation background-check data as well as economic indicators, we find that worsening economic conditions for men (relative to women) lead to increases in gun sales. Moreover, this effect is exacerbated by the prevalence of guns in an area. We supplement these analyses with nationally representative survey data showing a strong relationship between perceptions of threat to men’s gender identities and opposition to laws limiting access to guns
So when men feel threatened by women they buy more guns.

>The data used in this study were collected prior to the November 2018 midterm
election by Data for Progress. The survey made use of a representative, though non-probability, online sample of registered voters in the United States from YouGov.
>The data were provided to interested researchers. The overall sample size of the
study was 3,215 (unweighted 45% male, 81% white, 38% Democratic without leaners, 30% Republican).
>Importantly, the survey contains a three-item hostile sexism scale (Glick and
Fiske 1997). Respondents are asked to agree or disagree (on a 5-point scale, ranging
from strong agreement to strong disagreement) with the following statements:
>“Most women interpret innocent remarks or acts as being sexist,” “Women are too
easily offended,” and “Most women fail to appreciate fully all that men do for
them.”

>In addition to the sexism items, the survey included an item asking, “Which of the following is closest to your view on gun regulations?” with options on a 5-point scale, ranging from “It should be more difficult to buy all types of guns” to “It should be less difficult to buy all types of guns.”
>Seventy-one percent of men at the low end of the sexism scale (at the 10th percentile) say that it should be more difficult to buy guns; that figure falls to 41% among the men with the highest levels of sexism (99th percentile). Similarly, the percentage of men who think that it should be easier to buy guns increases from 7% among men scoring low on the sexism scale to 23% among those men scoring highly on the sexism scale.

Correlation does not equal causation. But a real scientist would know that.

Sure is a lot of wasted time on that research .

Obama did inspire a lot more fun sales so maybe this ain’t a full crock of shite.

Or when my wife makes good money, I can afford to buy more guns. And she can afford to buy more shoes.
Limp dick bastards have to distort anything to make guns, family, religion and hard work a bad idea.

I'm a woman. I own guns. I'm generally not confused about my gender or my want to arm myself.
Happiness is a warm gun.

Sociology research restricted to northern California is not settled science. They probably ought to come down south and talk to a few hunters.

K, curious how you were able to deduce that but still with you

I didn't buy my scary long gun because I'm scared of women.
I bought it because I'm scared of my Government.

Wouldn't be surprised if the results were cooked. Lots of sociology studies have been redone with drastically different results.

Researcher bias 101

It merely shows their ability to wildly interpret data in accordance with their pre-existing biases
