.....does this have any real effect on their health? Especially since some of them only smoke cigars, because with those you don't inhale any smoke into your lungs.


Mouth Cancer.
I would say no but there is bound to be evidence to say there is. The passive smoke from others will be a lot worse than smoking once a month

smoking is smoking. obv if you are just a casual smoker, its not as bad as being a chain smoker. then again people who go to parties a lot where they don't smoke but everyone else does must get affected.

Any amount of smoking carries health risks. It's really not worth it.

i casually smoke now... after quitting full time smoking
i smoke if i'm stressed or having a bad day because it makes me feel better... i'm not hooked tho because i can go for months without smoking

plus i dont believe in passive smoking... everyone i know who never told their parents they smoked have blamed passive smoking for bad coughs and smelling of smoke... so i believe the facts and firgures are totally skewed
