    Wow, 30-50% is actually quite low if you think ahout it.

    If say 10 in 1000 people have erection problems, thats 13-15 in 1000 smokers. Not much of a difference. Obviously depends on the percentage in non-smokers though which I have no idea about.

    If I would enjoy smoking tobacco, this would not make me consider stopping.

    smokers […] suffer from erection problems that men who don’t smoke

    We don’t all smoke a smoker’s erection problems, despite the 54% English in the headline claiming we do.

    Smokers are more likely to live an overall more unhealthy lifestyle, so is it the actual smoking, or that they eat like shit and not exercise?

      It’s causation. Fucks up the blood vessels. Also causes degenerative disc disease, which I really wish I didn’t have now, two back surgeries later. But that’s what made me quit vaping, my surgeon wouldn’t operate on me unless I did.

      Also weird that this isn’t an article. It’s not news or an academic study. Only a link to a web page from the Australian government saying “smoking is bad”. It doesn’t even clarify that they are talking about tobacco, unless you look at the directory and see this is under “tobaccofacts”.

      Also to be clear I agree with the message, but I also agree with you that this is an odd post.

        I find that most people assume cigarettes when they refer to smoking.

Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That’s it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.



Rule 11- Posts must actually be true: Disiniformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated. We are not here to ban people who said something you don't like.

If you file a report, include what specific rule is being violated and how.
