I think the stereo type exists here in Canada too, to an extent. None of my friends smoked cigars except one(And he is the richest out of us hehe). Now that I have started a few of them are slowly following suit. But you don't see many people smoking them either, at bars and stuff. And when ever I smoke one of my big stogies in public I feel the same way as you describe, like everyone is looking at me.Although the stereo type sounds way worse for you over there. I think the stereo type is partially true, and what we might be seeing(all the young members on the board) is another cigar boom, but I don't think that really changes the cigar smokers stereo type.
