How come when I want to smoke my pipe in some restaurants and bars I am not allowed to, the manager will ask me to refrain from lighting my pipe. Yet these same restaurants and bars have a smoking section where people can smoke cigarettes. Pipe smoke smells way better than cigarette smoke any day. Why do these restaurants and bars descriminate against pipe smokers?

Mike B - I in fact have a family and I do smoke my pipe in the house. I guess you should call child services on me since I smoke my pipe in the same room as my kids. Pipe smoking is not an outdated behavior, its alive and well. My 5 year old son has already expressed interest in one day being able to smoke his pipe with me (right now he has a bubble pipe that he "smokes" with dad). I will encourage that as I would rather have him smoking a pipe versus cigarettes.

Hard to say, some people just don't appreciate the finer things in life like a fine bowl of pipe tobacco. I would rather smell someones pipe smoke any day. I hate cigarette smoke.
Ashley C - how could pipe tobacco contain more carcinogens that cigarette tobacco? Explain in a scientific manor.

I am a sheesha smoker- its because its culteral in those types of restaurants, because my new family is Circassian(early russians who moved to Jordan curing the Bulshevic Revolution) and they smoke alot of sheesha. Its because Sheesha is fruits injected with nicotine and reglular smokes have alot of other chemicals that can be harmful. Since its more of a culteral thing, its more of a social event that is like having coffee with eachother.(believe it or not) The real Sheesha doesnt have any kind of chemical, the most it has is just nicotine that isnt as harmful(not saying smoke isnt) as the average cigarette. So, perhaps they use that as the reason being why they allow it in Lebanese restaruants.

pipe smoking,and cigar smoking is pretentious,outdated behavior that certainly has no place in a dining enviornment.it is honestly looked at by 90% of society as just obnoxious.but since you asked the question,lets ask YOU a question..............if you are continuously being snubbed for the pipe smoking at these places and you are spending good money,why would you not ask a manager to explain the policy?seems to me you are not asking a question here.more like just making a weak argument in favor of stinking up a restaurant.i bet if you have a family you cant even smoke that pipe in your own home.

Actually pipe smoke has more cacinogens in it then regualr cigs. So I think they may be looking out for the health of their employees and customers. Also too I don't want to smell that while I'm eating sorry. Also smoking anything in Ohio is banned in all restruants.

I feel its an adults right to smoke anywhere. The smell never bothered me. Drinkers bother me. Especially when they breathe on you while you are trying to eat.
