It looks like the vast majority of the members here on this site, or at least do the majority of posting are men. And I am wondering if your wives or girlfriends are with you an the whole prepping mentality. Are they with you 100%, maybe just agree it a good idea to have a little extra putback, or do they think you are crazy because they know Walmart will always be there. I am fortunate to have a wife who supports me equally as a prepper. But while driving home last, I'm thinking if finally caught up with her. It was about 5 pm, and we were about 35 minutes driving from getting home. She suddenly asked me out of the blue, " what is that thing that would turn out the power?" I said an EMP? She said yes, what would we do if one happened right now? I said we would walk. She didn't think we could make it, so in small steps, I explained how we not only would, but could. I pointed out why we would need our GHB, which she took out of the car, and why she needed the pistol in the glovebox, which she took out also. How we would walk near the road, but not on it. How we would take shortcuts to save time, reminding her how her mindset would have to change. I think it finally sunk in, it could happen, and if we are not prepared, we are dead. So, how are you and your partner planning, together or by yourself.
