I have a kinda local club/bar I go to about once a week sometimes not that often. Anyways the last two times I have been there I have run into vapers that were women. 3 total but no men doing it. Well that might not be right last night there might have been a guy not sure if he was or not talking to two girls that were vaping. Seemed to me he was kind of hitting on one. I was talking with the other and he friends while he was talking with the friend also. I heard him mention it and then he asked to try her coffee mocha. Ewww I would not have done that to a stranger. Anyways I find it interesting that I have outside of a vape shop in this place run into women vapers. It is my first time seeing this as I have only been vaping 3 weeks. Never seen it before anywhere but one time a few years back at our dog breed gathering. How often do you see women vapers in male dominate areas or just in public?

cybercat, that's kind of a loaded question considering the area ( population ) you live in, where as in Nashville I see 1:1 women to men with a vape pen in there hand or at a stop light.
Not many bars you can smoke in anymore but the smoking section.I do see men vaping in lowes and home depot and I have seen women vaping at the supermarket.

I've been a huge vape enabler when it comes to spinning and knitting. Anyone that smokes that comes to my home for fiber arts lessons *will* eventually end up vaping, so we have a little (sometimes stealthy) niche at knit meetings, because we meet at people's homes we usually go out to vape in a little cluster with the smokers. Our guy knitters and spinners don't seem to smoke or vape.

At the bar where I play pool I'm definitely the novelty. Most of the vapers are guys but then again, most of the patrons are guys.

I see vapers in the wild here and there. They tend to be men more than women...but since i spot vapers in the wild by their plumes (for example, the student in the class i was teaching), i wonder if men go for clouds more than women, or if women are more likely to stealth vape in public.

At our vape meets, the ratio of women to men is maybe 1:3 or 2:3...but it's the guys who are really into large clouds.

No idea if that's the case, and there are women with plumes and men who stealth...and i don't see enough vapers in the wild to really know for sure.

I haven't noticed any other female vapers in random public places, but then I haven't been vaping for very long either. There are a couple of vape shops in my area, but so far I've only ever seen one other woman there. It's possible that there are more female vapers in my area than I've seen, but so far in my experience it's mostly the guys :(

there are two vapers in a class i teach. Both guys. One i noticed 'cause i had to ask him not to blow visible vapor in class (even if it was during the break), the other 'cause he had an MVP2 sitting on his chair. I wonder if the women vapers are just more stealthy. Of friends that vape, more are women.
