I feel kind of let down that dooyoo has opened an catergory on tobacco products .
We all know that TOBACCO DAMAGES HEALTH .
This is a form of tobacco advertisement which has been banned on television screens for some time now .

Ok some ill informed or silly people want to smoke , there is no need to publise the fact . I understand that some people started smoking before they new the risks involved and since have become adictive , however there is life after fags .

I'm managed without cigarettes all my life , I admit that trying to look 'cool' at school I tried one . Then I realised how uncool it is to smoke and thet how it can ruin peoples lives due to the cost and the health damage
People do not need fags to stop them being stressed , I manage all it takes is frame of mind .

You only have to listen to a smoker cough and it would put most people off smoking .Think of the money smokers are wasting , money to cause smoking related disease , stained teeth , smokey smell .

What really upsets me is pregnant women smoking , harmimg their unborn baby . When my patner was in hospital having our baby , the mothers who smoked generally had smaller babies . Is it fair to put unborn babies to risk ?

All smokers can give up with support , willpower and courage .That is very easy for me to say as I've never been in that situation but I have great faith in them all , that they can get through it.

If you are reading this trying to give smoking I'd like to say a huge well done , and it will be worth it . They only way to reduce the interest in smoking and to warm of the dangers are too advertise them . This however needs money that the goverment won't pay for due to the tax it recieves on cigarettes . Perphaps the NHS would have more money if less people smoked .

Hope this if food for thought !

I disagree that the cigarette section should be removed, even though I'm a non-smoker, because the whole point of dooyoo is to embrace what different people believe and enjoy. Unfortunately, lots of people do smoke. Even people who don't "smoke" in a regular way will light up after a couple of beers. Brushing it under the carpet never made anything go away.

Perhaps they should put a disclaimer on the intro page for tobacco products? - govt health warning? That sort of thing? The most effective way is for people like you to express their opinion in bulk, so that the con section well outweighs the pro and people can make an informed decision before they take up smoking. You hope.
