Although I have never smoked in my life I have always liked the smell of someone's smoldering cigarette.
Really?
I've never smoked either, but I grew up with parents who smoked cigarettes. Being around A single smoker doesn't bother me so much...most of the time. It's the concentration of smoke that gets to me. Being in the car with my parents smoking was too much. Or being in a room full of smokers where all you can see is a haze is too much for me too... I typically find that menthol cigarettes smell worse than regular brands for some reason.
I can't stand cigar smoke at all. It makes me want to throw up. Personally, I think they should be outlawed.
My Grandfather smoked a pipe, and that never bothered me, as I recall. Infact, I know that some brands of pipe tobacco, and even some that are like "Cherry" flavored or whatever, I actually like smelling those.
Odd. You would think tobacco would be the same from one kind of smoking to another, but it isn't.
I love when people smoke in movies. Especially women smoking. Simply adore. It looks beautiful.
Many people are attracted to various parts of a woman's body. Their feet. Their legs. Their breasts...
But, I find that I am attracted to the hands of a woman, and seeing a woman smoke is a way for me to see her beautiful hands.
But then, sometimes you see a woman smoke, and it almost is like it gives them great pleasure, and their body language can be a turn on too...
So it all becomes a mixed issue for me.
Seeing Women Smoke? Yes. Smelling Their Cigarettes? I'm Not Really Interested.
Watching vintage hollywood films with those beautiful legendary actresses, and watching Beautiful Kate Winslet smoke in that first scene... fits the bill perfectly for me...
Rose was a smoker and she lived to be 101.
Well, we know she only smoked a few times during the movie, and we don't know if she continued to do so afterwords.
It is said that if you quit at an early age, you can recover from the hazards of smoking...
However, I just read that Bette Davis smoked FIVE packs a day (FIVE Packs? Seriously? How?) for most of her life, and she lived into her 80s, when most people were only expected to live into their 60s or 70s. MANY classic hollywood stars who smoked also lived into their 80s... Yet, some people who never smoked in their life today, get lung cancer and die in their mid 30s.
Nowadays people are so afraid of smoking people whose smoke can reach their delicate nostrils, that is what scares ME.
This "TRUTH" about how bad tobacco is for you, seems to be more about scaring people, than anything else...
Now that doesn't mean that smoking isn't bad...
But I think genetics is more to blame, than tobacco. Some people just can't take it... And as I said, how do you explain non-smokers for getting lung cancer?
The part I hate to see is how smokers are treated when someone gets ONE puff blown in their face. They are NOT going to die from the occasional exposure.
If they don't want to be around smokers, then they just need to stay away from employee break rooms & bars!
If smokers want to risk their own health, they can step outside.
As for Titanic, Yeah, I would avoid the smoking lounges, and enclosed spaces where other passengers are smoking.
People smoked like chimneys in WWII. I even think crews smoked on Submarines. I may be wrong about that, but if I am not... Think about what THAT was like... At least people on Titanic, could open up a window! or go up on deck for some fresh air.
