that is such a true statement and I feel the same way, I would love to see more women involved in the cigar passion. I think sometimes they feel it is so male dominated they would not be welcomed, my cigar club has a total of 3 women and when we host events at the lounge they are out numbered 65 to 3. However, even with those odds they have fun and get involved in everything we do, well except the fishing trips. As the Membership Director I am trying to recruit more women and hope to get at least 25% by next year. If your ever in Myrtle Beach stop the club and I'll buy you a cigar.

Wo Wo Wo, Slow down their killer, No one is saying anything or anyone is wrong! Us women love guys that smoke cigars and aren't trying to change a thing. We just want the same respect. I am a female in the industry making friends, building camaraderie, helping out my community and trying to make a buck. I respect the fact that this is a predominately dominated male world and think I stated that clearly. But we’re not at war just showing some love to our fellow cigar smoker weather it be female or Male. I do take offense to you coming on the group just to be rude to my friends, it really goes against the social graces of the cigar smoker.

I’m here for ya if you have any questions you might need answered about cigars, Always trying to accommodate! Oh, and your reference to the mall…. Hate the mall! But I was at a Hockey game last night.

Hugs from So Cal,
DeeDee

Relaxation, enjoyment, and quite simply enjoying yourself has little to nothing to do with gender. Ladies, do what you have to do. Cigars are for everyone. DeeDee, as a man in the industry I applaud everything you said about respect, friendship, community, and making a living. I hope we can meet in Vegas.

Damsel - I did not change my views - my post was "mysteriously" deleted. Only Admin's and the group originator can delete posts.
