Kits are about $30-100, the files are free and materials are cheap. Ammo is another matter, but plastic darts are a thing.

But to the point, it was more of a hyperbole than advocating women start carrying unregistered firearms, so I'm exploring the hypothetical rather than arguing in favor of it.

Where I live getting a gun is a lot more difficult, and a license to conceal and carry a loaded weapon even more so. Hypothetically speaking, it is faster, easier and cheaper to make a 3D printed handgun if you know what you're doing. Given their prevalence here, it doesn't seem all that difficult for a lot of people. I'm not saying it's without risk.
