Welcome to the modern day: A place where men, women, children, and dogs can use cannabis.
Women can even shove weed into their V for relief and pleasure. Many weed companies are run by women.
After we took a general survey of a few women, certainly not all women, who smoke cannabis, to determine the reactions of men to smoking women. We got some varied and funny responses.
Some of these summations may generalize some men, to some degree, and this article isn’t the definitive version of what every man and woman thinks about women who smoke weed, but it’s certainly a place to start.
“I love when a man says to me ‘Oh! You smoke weed?! For real?!!!’ Like its some terrific taboo that as a woman, I smoke A LOT of weed. My favorite thing to do in such a situation is to educate that weed, or cannabis, is highly (pun intended) medicinal and women have been using it since the beginning of time to help their ailments.” –Roxanne Dennant, 29, Owner of Fruit Slabs
“I wouldn’t say I’m completely confidential about my weed use to guys, but if I don’t already know the man I’m talking to, it is very rare that you will find me talking about weed at all. It’s not really something I bring up unless I know the other person uses it as much or more than myself.” –Susanna, 21, Student
“Guys who smoke weed are generally pretty excited by my weed smoking. Guys who don’t smoke weed don’t love it because I do it a lot. As for stereotypical stuff, maybe just asking if I’m high when I do something dumb or am being weird at a party.” – Lindsay MaHarry, 27, Writer
“Yes, all too frequently.” –Megan Crandell, Social Media Manager
“Not really. My boyfriend thinks it’s sweet that I take tiny puffs—he knows I’m sensitive. But he’s never patronizing about it.” –Dani, 30
“Many, many men have made comments about my weed smoking, and I find most of them are heavy alcohol drinkers who get ‘anxiety’ when they smoke weed and can’t function when under its influence. They’re maybe amazed, maybe in disbelief, about how much I get accomplished while high and yet I’ve been called ‘lazy,’ ‘stoner,’ ‘pothead,’ ‘hippie,’ and ‘degenerate’ by friends, lovers and family members alike. The more I smoke, and accomplish, the less I hear this, but it’s still prevalent. If I make a comment about how many drinks a friend has while we’re out (only worrying for their driving safety) I often get, ‘Don’t you smoke weed like every day? How is this different?’ And with a sigh, I must agree to disagree that cannabis is the lesser drug of the two. Everyone assumes I’m high every minute of every day. The fact that no one ever knows if I am or not is to the plant’s credit for its subtlety.” –Adrienne, 32, Comedian and Writer
