Smoking Hot News – Lose Your Manhood if You Smoke


The problem with some bad habits is that they are detrimental not just to those who’re addicted to them, but to the people around them too. While some cause active repercussions (like when someone who drinks and drives kills someone on the road or when an inebriated man abuses his wife physically), others like smoking are passive and tend to be harmful to bystanders and people in the nearby vicinity even if the smoker is just keeping to himself. This is why smoking becomes a social ill, one that plagues not just those who smoke, but the society they live in and the neighborhoods they frequent as well.

If you stop to think about it, you’re buying death and illness when you smoke – not only do you have to shell out money to buy your cigarettes, by smoking them and incurring momentary pleasure and satisfaction, you’re assured of a one-way ticket to hell, be it an early death or a lifetime of ill health and disease. It’s no secret that smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer; and besides this, it is responsible for conditions like high blood pressure, constriction of arteries that cause your heart and blood vessels to strain, heard disease and stroke, and emphysema (which causes the slow rotting of your lungs and brings on bronchitis and lung failure).

Besides this, it slows down your blood circulation, coats your lungs with tar, deprives your body of oxygen and causes your body to work harder because of its carbon monoxide content and blocks your blood vessels with fat deposits. It is especially harmful for pregnant and lactating mothers because the baby is affected too by the negative effects of nicotine and tar.

But what is most shocking of all and what would make most people instantly shrink back in horror is the fact that cigarettes cause impotence in men and infertility in women. Research has proved that male smokers with high blood pressure are 26 times more likely to suffer from impotence in the prime of their youth. Also, even smokers who have quit are 11 times more likely to be impotent than non smokers.

The best way to stop smoking as a social ill is to spread the news and promote the fact that smoking leads to impotence and that you cannot have sex or sustain your erection for long if you continue to go through packs of cigarettes – most men find that the shock value of losing their manhood alone is enough to spur them on to quit. And if they’re not inclined to stop, perhaps their wives and girlfriends will have more success at getting them to kick the habit.

There are people who refuse to accept the fact that smoking causes erectile dysfunction, but the very fact that cigarettes cause constriction of blood vessels and limit your blood circulation is proof enough that when you smoke, there is lower blood flow to your penis; and this automatically proves that you’re going to have trouble holding an erection and performing in bed.

So if you’re hesitating and deliberating quitting, now is the right time to do so, before you lose both your health and your manhood.
