Worth noting that I have had a fascination with smoking women for as long as I can remember, long before onset of puberty and the realization that the fascination was sexual in nature. I always regarded cigarette smoking as an essentially feminine activity, to the point that I found imagery of men smoking cigarettes (think the Marlboro man, for instance) strongly off-putting.

In hindsight, I think this may have had to do with the proto-sexual nature of my fascination; I think maybe I had tended to regard cigarette smoking as a secondary sexual aspect of a woman, and I found it almost repulsive on a certain level to see a man, especially a "macho" type, engaging in this activity that I found so appealing in a woman.

(If a gentleman is going to smoke in public, he should smoke a cigar or a pipe, that's what I think. Women can smoke whatever they like, as long as they do so with a sense of syle and grace! Man...I could write a frakkin' book about all the mixed-up notions of gender and gender-appropriate behaviour I've got...but I'll give it a rest for now...)
