Women Smoking Cigars

Women smoking cigars was not common for a very long time. Cigar smoking was for very wealthy men and a very select few wealthy women (those that were queens of countries and etc). Cigar smoking was seen as a male endeavor, smoking fine cigars proved that you had very good business sense and a successful business.

What cigars represent

Cigars represented masculinity due to it's large phallic shape, money because you had to have a lot of money in order to purchase a fine cigar, and power, you tell me if you can intimidate a person smoking a cigar.

The average woman didn't have their own income to spend and purchase cigars, but now as women gain their own incomes they are picking up on smoking cigars due to their own affluence and wealth. Ironically, kept from smoking cigars due to it's phallic imagery, you will find a women behind the cigar counter at a cigar shop every once in awhile.

What men think about women smoking cigars

You'll find that some men actually support women who smoke cigars. Some say that it's a great idea and that it allows women to express their masculine side and "regain their power". Some men think that women smoking cigars is sexy.

Women who smoke a cigar despite others opinions gain men's respect, since they don't care about what other people think of them. The few women who smoke heavy cigars and not just flavored or mild cigars gain more respect as smoking heavy cigars is also considered a male thing.

Where to smoke

If you want to smoke and socialize at the same time then go to a cigar lounge. You'll be able to buy many different types of cigars including the Arturo fuente cigars, and you'll be surrounded by many other cigar enthusiasts. It will be very interesting since most of the members in the club are male and they will be surprised when they see 1 or 2 women pop in for a good smoke.

The numbers

In 1980, women bought a tenth of a percent of cigars. Now women are buying 2% of all cigars sold! That's a 3000 percent increase! Now imagine how many women will be smoking cigars in the next 20 years! It is estimated that women smoke about 3-5 cigars every month.

Women who smoke cigars show class. Cigar smoking women should be proud and probably are, whether they like mild cigars or go for the fullest ones, women smoking cigars will become very common and very soon.
