    any females here?

    what's the gender percentage here?
    this is of course impossible to tell given that most users here do not post or check very often
    I'm just curious if this forum is just a big sausage fest :lol:

    Any women on here at all?
    chime in!

      That would be my guess.

          There used to be IIRC one semi-regular called Blizzardbeast from Arizona(?) and one that posted once from Slovenia.

            I remember them both. Craig, what makes you so sure, that Blizzardbeast is a female?

            Overall, yeah, you have to read very old threads to find women posting. Maybe it's for the best. Most women (regarding some german forums) just ask 1000 useless questions about snus", e.g. if it stains one's teeth, then they sometimes even try snus, make a short posting about how good it is, then maybe one or two additional postings ... and then they never post again. :lol:

            BTW, my above point of view is certainly too harsh, but I don't want to start a sociological study. It's just a fact, that women are a rare species on smokeless-tobacco-forums.

            Cheers!

              The fact that women are either a minority or non-existent on this forum doesn't really surprise me. Even most men I know seem to have an aversion to using smokeless tobacco. Maybe people in the U.S. just associate smokeless with "redneck" culture to such a degree that most don't even want to try it.

              Not that U.S. smokeless doesn't deserve it's bad reputation.

              But still, women on these pages...

                I seem to remember she said so somewhere. Maybe in a post about music where she complained about being the only woman around that liked metal AND oral tobacco.
                At least....that's what I seem to recall. My memory about it is pretty hazy.

                  That sums it up. Beyond just the smokeless-tobacco being a rare taste for women, I think the general tone of conversation here is very "male", in whatever way you want to interpret that. The type of gentleman's club waffling and banter that bores women to tears, if you know what I mean.

                      At least in Sweden, snus use is not entirely male. From an article linked in Wikipedia ... "Effect of smokeless tobacco (snus) on smoking and public health in Sweden"

                      "In women, smoking prevalence remained stable from 1986 to 1994 at 27% then dropped to 22% in 1999 when snus use rose from 2% to 6%"

                      So come on snus using women of Sweden, come join our nice forum. I'm still looking for my Swedish girlfriend to go with my Swedish car.

                        I just want a woman who will snus with me.

                        (Wow, that sounds like a bad innuendo.)

                          Well I have that. She only snuses about half the time, still smoking. I don't see her hanging around the forum though.

                            I'm not one for redneck chicks who put in a wad of chaw and are missing half their teeth and are some kind of hardcore tomboy with a million tattoos and and doesn't resemble much of a woman....lol....but I think that's the impression a lot of women get that they have to be, or a guy gets when they see a chick in this smokeless-tobacco demographic of society.

                            What's really weird is how some hot chicks can freely enjoy cigars.

                            But that's what pisses me off about women in general, is that they feel like they constantly have to cater to this ultra-femininey lifestyle. I like women who are real and can like what I like, but still not be considered 'rough around the edges' if you know what I mean. One who would rather have a nice steak and potatoes dinner instead of giving a shit about useless flowers...and if they're a smoker, to quickly lose that idiocy over oral tobacco in favor of not smelling like an ashtray.
