Hallo, Frodo! (RG points to Frodo ---->and I thought you were a boy! *chuckle*)
It's been well documented that women have smoked pipes from The French Revolution thru The American Civil War! It's just that smoking became something for men during the Victorian Era in England, and was frowned upon. That spilled over into the USA.
I learned courtesy of a friend. He was concerned that I would ruin my lungs smoking ciggs. Pipe smoking is a good way to curb yourself. I loved it once I learned how. And YES, people often ask me "What you got in there, weed?! Can I have some???" Because, well, they've never seen a pipe in a woman's mouth unless it was marijuana.
