kiss Why Do Nigerian Women Hate Smoking So Much? 45% of our Men does it, but 99.9% of Women are not into it.The few ones that does it, are termed as a prostitute, or looked down upon by Nigerians. Why this?

Pls don't quote me wrongly, the purpose of this thread is not to encourage smoking but to get explanation from Nairaland deep thinkers of what could be the probable cause of it. but from my own observation, When i was opportuned to visit USA (Miami, Florida) to be precise. I was forced to compare and contast the social live styles of our Women with theirs as regard to smoking and drinking. I noticed about 45% of them were habitual smokers.

Note: Pls don't abuse me on my thread if you have nothing good to say just view and leave or else i'll give you the feedback you wanted

Pls your comment is needed.

Simple, Nigerian women love their men a lot and don't get it when their fellow woman chooses "death" cos that's what prostitutes do.

Girl... use ur brain biko. This post of yours is very ridiculous.

I'm sorry to say, but I find this question funny.... Its just like you asking why people don't do bad things. Smoking is badhealth wise and it is not accepted socially amongst women.
We should be seeing things that should encourage us. And not otherwise...

Next theard we are going to see is why do some women hate abortions

If there is anything I like about the Nigerian women this should be it. Please, Nigerian women don't change your ways on that. There is nothing special in smoking and it is a deadly and addictive habit that can lead to cancers, etc.
Re: Why Do Nigerian Women Hate Smoking So Much? by ekiloui(f): 2:38pm On May 24, 2015
I believe women abroad smoke because of the weather, why should nigerians under the hot blazing sun we experience bother smoking? Nicotine is addictive and if u have no business smoking (as in no legit reason) then you should stop. Not only do you get addicted you also smoke away your lungs and start disturbing your entire family to look 4 operation funds.

Say no to smoking

Smoking is an odd habit to pick up but if you're going to do it at least smoke decent tobacco and not the horrible cigarette tobacco.

societal values differs from place to place.
Nigerian society frowns and abhors women that smokes and even the men that do smoke are sometimes looked upon as being irresponsible.

what is generally acceptable in another society may be rejected in another society that is why we have what is called cultural differences.

Re: Why Do Nigerian Women Hate Smoking So Much? by Nobody: 2:52pm On May 24, 2015
Well, 2014 was the first time I experienced winter
I still have nightmares about the cold...Lawd

Anyway by mid October I was looking longingly at people puffing away with smoke rising from their "cores' or so it seemed
The most inviting thing I ever saw lipsrsealed

Well going by how cold I was, I would have become a chimney by now
...if I had not asked a guy, who was smoking if the smoking warmed him
He laughed soo hard, told his 'colleagues' @ smoking and they laughed some more angry
Then they told me it does nothing to warm the body
I was like, 'bloody waste of smoke then"

Anyway.....I would have graduated to weed, crack and more if I had been told smoking could warm the body by now
Without giving a hoot what my Nigerian society would think!
I remain a non smoker however
(waiting for the smokes that would warm the body cheesy)

Another thing....I love the smell of tobacco in cars....beds etc, but not really on the smoker...
I could date a guy who smokes...but would totally kill my relatives if I caught them smoking
I am a hypocritical dater who prefers blood to sem.en I guess
SMH

In America or Europe.. Smoking is not really a life style, dey smoke cuz of d cold weather, so both men and women can smoke freely without having negative thought abt it. But in Africa u see ple smoke under hot weather and is becoming a life style.

Culture.
Its ok to sleep with many guys without protection. Its ok to accept a ride from a stranger, but its a bad thing to smoke because, it portrays u as a bad/immoral girl to the society.


DUMB!! No insult intended

The federal ministry of health warns that tobacco smokers are liable to die young!
