Ask any smokers around you. Probably ninety-nine percent of them want to quit. They say that they have tried to quit and just can’t make it more than a day or two. Is it weakness or laziness of these smokers? It is called an addiction. And just like with alcohol, gambling or any other vice, it is a one step at a time process.

The thing with smokers is that not a single one of them look attractive with a cigarette dangling from their mouth or fingers. Back in the golden era of Hollywood, a lot of the stars could be seen puffing away in a scene or two. Celebrity smokers back then were looked up to not looked down upon. However, now that the dangers of smoking are linked to so many diseases and maladies, celebrities are getting constantly razzed about it.

Female celebrity smokers are often targets of ridicule and that is why many of them take great pains to keep from being caught on film with a cigarette. Famous Destiny’s Child front singer Beyonce claims to not be a smoker and yet she was seen lighting up in a nightclub. Other famous smokers that are often in the tabloids include Jennifer Anniston and Kate Moss. The list goes on with smokers both male and female who light up, regardless of who is snapping tabloid photos of them, especially in supposed non-smokers restaurants.

Celebrity also has made cigar smoking a bit more acceptable. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito are just two of these celebrity cigar smokers. Weed smokers, however, are a bit of a different breed. Many people regard these people with the stereotypical viewpoint of “pothead.” Indeed, they are also viewed as dirty smokers, mainly because of its illegal status. Of course, some people view cigars smokers as dirty smokers too because the smoke stinks a lot worse.

What is a total turnoff that many people just can’t get past the fact that there are pregnant smokers. In fact, there are pregnant smokers’ chat rooms on the internet. While everyone knows that smoking is bad for you and many want to quit, not too many people understand why women who are carrying a child cannot or will not quit for the sake of their unborn child.

Then there are the teenage smokers. Some teens view smoking as sexy or grown-up. The fact of the matter is that after they are hooked, some of these teen smokers desperately want to quit but can’t do it. It takes incredible will power along with some cessation products to help a smoker kick the habit. Hopefully, those teenagers who want to quit will follow through because they will not want to form wrinkles or the dreaded smoker’s mouth with all of those fine lines emanating from your lips from long-term puffing.
