I'd be curious to know how many gun owners actually carry them around
most of the time where they would be useful in a defense situation?
My guess is that as a percentage among gun owners, it's a lot higher
among men than women.  I'd also bet that women are more likely to lock
their guns and ammo away at home than men are.  If 23 out of every 100
own a gun, I'd guess only a few of those actually keep them accessible
where they'd be useful to defend themselves.  I could be wrong, but
the "gun to defend myself" argument falls pretty flat in practice in
my experience.  Mace or pepperspray on the other hand, is effective,
accessible, non-lethal and very readily available if my female friends
who carry it are any indication of the norm.
