Kind of funny that actually doing things "manly" is a fringe trend. What the hell happened to us!?

I think the original topic is safe advertising. Look at the membership of this site. I don't think we have a single female piper. The pipe club I belong to is all guys. I know the cigar side occasionally gets a female participant, but they are few and far between. There are some things that are predominantly male and some that are female. I think that's OK.

Hmmm...maybe Hillary's news conference would have gone better if she were smoking a pipe.
