You should be able to get good counsel on all issues hookak at any good head shop, where they will think you are joking and using the legal magic words when you say that you are buying it for your boyfriend to smoke tobacco out of. YMMV.

Your anecdotal evidence varies from mine. I've done the hookah tobacco smoking thing at some middle eastern restaurant (and PLF will confirm that I am no hipster), and the two friends I've had who were seriously into that sort of thing (both of them with the apple or other fruit tobacco) were non-hipster chicks. One's an ex-stripper, who wouldn't know hipster if PLF walked up and slapped her in the fake tits (NTTAWWT) and the other is a kareoke-loving, board-game-party hosting non-hipster, who also enjoys the pot, but not from a hookah.
I guess my mileage varies.
I wouldn't want to clean one either, but my aging bong was never very well maintained, so there you go.
