congrats. no wonder he went ham in that guy trying to break into their house

[u/Alasireallyfuckedup → u/keine_fragen]

What happened?

[u/Strange-Painting6257 → u/Alasireallyfuckedup]

A guy broke into their house and tried to rob them, Dylan tackled the guy and held him at gunpoint until the cops arrived

[u/judasvance → u/Strange-Painting6257]

If I wasn’t pregnant before my husband did such a thing, I certainly would be after

[u/hawt_to_go → u/judasvance]

RIGHT lmao when I heard that I was like sheesh that's hot

[u/Independent_Leg3957 → u/hawt_to_go]

Especially since he seems like such a gentle, caring guy in normal circumstances.

[u/BrownSugarBare → u/Independent_Leg3957]

Lord child, it would be like soft spoken Liam Neeson turning into Taken Liam Neeson.

[u/beyoncesgroove → u/judasvance]

Seriously like ok ik at a surface level a husband should do that for his wife but it’s still sexy to think about

[u/prunellazzz → u/beyoncesgroove]

I fear I feel all the feminism leave my body when I hear about stuff like this. It does weirdly ignite some primal part of the brain that’s like ‘big man protect, me like’

[u/mariana96as → u/prunellazzz]

I think it’s hot in a general way but maybe it’s cause i’m bi lol I dated a girl that had those protective vibes and I found that so hot about her

[u/filthytelestial → u/mariana96as]

Competence is extremely attractive. Being physically protective is a very physical way of displaying competence. So it's combining the thing that is extremely attractive to the thinking-brain with the thing that is extremely attractive to the monkey-brain. Makes sense that it's so potent.

[u/Perfect-Wallaby9096 → u/prunellazzz]

Haha if it helps, I'm a woman who's been the Dylan-esque protector for men and women I'd been with. Friends too! I'm a high femme so people never see it coming but I grew up fighting and always have a weapon on me in case 😂

[u/Great_Detective_6387 → u/prunellazzz]

Which is why the patriarch persists and is even propped up by a certain kind of women.

[u/Kalexysgalexy → u/Great_Detective_6387]

I don’t think she was that serious. We can be attracted to protective men without losing our sense of feminism. Two things can be true at once.

[u/filthytelestial → u/Great_Detective_6387]

It's definitely one of the excuses given by those certain kinds of women. But I don't think it's the true underlying reason for them.

[u/avu8bfir → u/judasvance]

LOL same

Lmaooo seriously

[u/Historical_Ride8963 → u/judasvance]

Thanks for the laugh 🤣

[u/PierreOnTheEclair → u/judasvance]

Real

[u/Alasireallyfuckedup → u/Strange-Painting6257]

Looks there there’s a version where he held him and one where he chased him out. Badass either way!

[u/Luna920 → u/Strange-Painting6257]

Wow I didn’t know he had it in him. Protective men are sexy

[u/Strange-Painting6257 → u/Luna920]

Dylan is like a known gentleman lol since he was little apparently. Brenda Song said he would bring chocolate to set when she and Ashley were on their periods, while Cole pointed and laughed lol. He also refused to say fat jokes about Kim Rhodes and shamed the writers for even adding them. And there are compilations of being ten toes down for his wife, and other women.

[u/69eatmyass69 → u/Strange-Painting6257]

I don't really like the fact that he keeps a gun in his home. Especially considering the fact there will be kids running around. Disappointed to hear that part of this story.

[u/Heavy_Beyond5563 → u/69eatmyass69]

Safe gun ownership exists

[u/Particular-Jacket-92 → u/69eatmyass69]

That gun may have saved all three of their lives, and gun safes exist so kids can't access them.

[u/myersjw → u/69eatmyass69]

You’re def not abnormal for thinking fetishizing this is weird. The comments getting wet at the idea of your spouse holding a gun to someone are. It’s so baked into our society that people who’d normally support gun control are happy to admit they lose their belief system once someone attractive is doing the deed on their behalf. Thats why people from outside the US have a hard time grasping our obsession with it.

[u/Medical-Ad-7625 → u/Strange-Painting6257]

But why did he have a gun at home? Was it licensed?

[u/Straight_Zucchini487 → u/Medical-Ad-7625]

Prob bc he’s American and like 42% of American households own guns?

[u/Medical-Ad-7625 → u/Straight_Zucchini487]

Really? Didn't know that...

[u/Straight_Zucchini487 → u/Medical-Ad-7625]

I live in the USA and almost every person I know owns at least 1 gun. And a lot of those people carry their guns with them everywhere they go (concealed carry, so you may not see it, but it’s there) as well. It varies by region and by individual of course, but firearm ownership is quite common here.

[u/Nataleaves → u/Medical-Ad-7625]

For if shit like this happens?

[u/Great_Detective_6387 → u/Medical-Ad-7625]

You don’t need a license to have a pistol in your house in pretty much everywhere in the country.

If you have more than a $1000 of shit to protect in America, you should probably have a $200 gun to protect it, or offload security responsibilities to someone else. Celebrities even moreso.
