Most any caliber is O K if you put it in the right place. Trouble is most folks buy a hand gun, fire it a few times and put it in a drawer. I have seen a number of folks, espically women, buy an auto and can't pull the slide back or clear a jam. Many can't hit a target. I usually recomend a .38 or 357 revolver to those who are not too experienced with hand guns. Simple, reliable and efective. Practice, practice, practice!
To me for home defense I prefer a double barrel or pump shotgun. A good 20 gage is great for ladies. It is quite intimidating to the bad guys. Also shotguns with their limited range are less of a danger to distant innocent people. Just don't let the bad guy get close.
