    Swap flamethrower for gun and you are describing open carry laws. Some states have decided this is legal, others not.

    But the laws do apply equally, independent of gender.

      Age of consent laws are applied differently to each gender, it acknowledges differences. Age pension laws acknowledge differences in retirement age. I think we can agree open carry laws make people uncomfortable and that’s why most states and the people in them are sane enough to disagree with them. People would prefer to not know you have a gun and all the angst and discomfort that goes along with it, it’s not so much the issue of the gun itself.
