Kevin, or others, do you have any demographic info on pipesmokers? I see mostly white males. There are scattered womem and a few asians. I am basing my statements on observations of the pictures in the forums and attendance at the Chicago Pipe Show. I do see that there is a wide spread in ages.
I am curious, but I am sure that others have actually done some research.

I'm a 1/4 Welsh, 1/4 Irish, 1/4 Cuban, 1/4 Puerto Rican pipe smoker. But just like everything else I see mostly white males. Haven't seen many pipe smokers piping away outside in San Antonio in the 11 years I've been down here. But then again I don't get out much. :oops:

Or they tend to be young grumpy men... Like me!
I know many black pipe smokers and I know even more Asian pipe smokers (college town with a huge Asian district), but I do see way more older white guys than anything else!

I'm White and Korean and could care less about demographics. Pipe smokers are a minor segment of the population anyways don't want to categorize us further. As long as folks are like you guys and gals, I don't care if you paint your stomach purple and speak only in the third person.Enjoy your pipes & tobaccos.

Spartan, I hope you got your taste for food from your Latino side, and your taste for drink from your Welsh/Celtic side.

I say Jose is a little bastard that should be taken out back and shot.
Patron, on the other hand is like the godfather, sneaks up on you when you least expect it and BAM! But at least you don't feel too bad the next morning.

TThe pipe smokers I've met exhibit maturity, some are young and some are seniors, all are thoughtful, intelligent, self assured, well adjusted, considerate, men who are a pleasure to know and friends to keep. We do not have the same parents and we do not come from the same families, we are not of the same race, religion culture or nationality, some are family men and some live alone, we may not speak the same language however, brothers we are. We have a special bond and we all know that. Just think how well our congress would function, Republicans and Democrats from the North and South, from the East and the West, if all were pipe smokers. I am absolutely certain that if I were running a business and I had to choose applicants for employment, my best choice would be a fellow pipe smoker. The only demographic is that some of us are best in everything that we set out to accomplish in our lives and all the others do not smoke a pipe.

I would say in general, the demos are white men? If you go to youtube and search pipe smoking, there will be some asians and african americans...and a few other race...but mostly white...Not that it matters, and i don't think winton had any other thing in mind but just to know who's on here...just being curious is all

Bingo! I was just curious. Part of the context is that I recently finished an intense class on marketing, with tons of demographic data thrown at us. I normally put myself in the whte 40ish category, with the subcatagory of serious husband / father. But my inner clown ofter escapes.
