What is your thoughts when you see it.
It's not uncommon here in North Idaho. I have to admit, I find it attractive.

I see female storekeepers OCing all the time here.
They're behind the counter, generally, and can back up and draw before you can grab them. Legally armed folks - I'm ok with it. I'm not a fan of OC out in public due to retention and situational awareness issues, but if you're in your own home or shop and OCing good on you. And yes, I think it's pretty hot (if they are). |

I OC about half the time. A hell of a lot easier in a lot of women's clothing, especially in warmer weather. Yes, you need to maintain situational awareness, but women should do that anyway as we tend to be easier, more vulnerable victims. Literally blood in the streets. Guns grabbed everywhere. |

Attention seeking whore. What else could it be? She probably has a channel where she posts up her "Open Carry Encounters #368." No one but irl memers and tards open carry. Carrying at all is pretty cringey to be honest. If not sarcasm you should probably make sure your bleach is properly labeled lest you accidentally drink it. |

My first thought. If you open carry use a restraint holster. Quoted:

In her case, I think it is a good way to lose control of your weapon. My first thought. If you open carry use a restraint holster. Very much this. Dat ass tho 
ETA by "restraint holster" you mean a Level II or III retention holster, right? |

I personally have no interest in open carry, but if that's what they wanna do, have at it. http://www.elimeirkaplan.com/media/original/EMK_open_carry_001.jpg Serpas are a turn-off

In her case, I think it is a good way to lose control of your weapon. I OC only rarely, typically in wilderness/rural areas. When I do, the piece rides in a retention holster. To start doing it every day, in an urban setting, I need retention training. |

I prefer my lady to carry concealed, because she works in a law office on a 25th floor with security in the nice part of ATL.
She's stronger than a bunch of guys, definitely stronger than any of those women posted, and I would still worry about retention. Eta: first one has a little bicep action going on under the ink, but I still think my lady could pin her. I might like to see that

No retention at all on that holster. There's no way in hell I'd carry like that. But the first two Her problem is that M&P Shield isn't seated all the way into the holster. She still has a good 1/2" more room seat her weapon. That is a good way to lose it. |

A non-retention holster behind the back is probably the worst thing you can do.
If you are going to openly carry, be smart about it. (Even if you are CCW be smart about it) other than that, there is zero wrong with open carry, I'll wait for the OMG you will be shot first crowd to chime in. (which doesn't happen enough to be even statistically relevant) |
