Because it goes with the chavvy image they're trying to create:
 Isn't it really part of a cycle anyway? You start going to parties at 14 / 15. The moment you do you discover alcohol. You get drunk. Then, if you're with the right people you find yourself going to parties with older children (who are 17+), most of who are on benefits. They persuade you into smoking and eventually on to drugs... But like I said it goes with the image: I know someone who's 14 and smokes and someone who's 16 and does cannabis. The smoker's one of those idiots who'd have you believe he could destroy the Mafia.
I find the idea of being 'cool' with lighting a cigarette ridiculous. It is same as being cool by nailing one's own coffin.
i think the smoking thing is force of habbit to be honest, also alot of people hide behind smoking, tis like a security blanket for them. they have been smoking for so long they dont feel like themselves without it. i mean you ask nearly any smoker and they'll say theyd rather not smoke. but most people will have been smoking most their life, that means for most of their life theyve had a stick in their hand and inhaled from it. take that away and what do you have left to replace that time with the stick in your hand? usualy if ur a smoker you dont do many sports and the like. im not making excuses but i can say after half my life smoking giving up only ever seems to be for months at a time. it really is hard especialy as a smoker you know a lot of other smokers too!
bottom line smoking not kewl but if your gonna do it may as well smoke some thing worth while  ...
Some people think they are cool when they smoke. Fashion? It also help to an individual when they are thinking of something. Writers smokes right? Writers thinks a lot...
 Influence...
Well, not to burst your bubble or anything, but 90% of the people that I know who smoke are female. I'm not sure why most of them started, but they smoke now because it "relieves stress." When they first started smoking, it was probably at a party of some sort, and they probably did it because they wanted to fit in, but now that they're addicted, the cigarette works as a good stress reliever for them. As someone said earlier, smoking often becomes a part of who someone is, they make it a part of their personal image, and they don't want to give that up.

I dont like them, but Im just keeping it as a secret, I dont want to destroy our friendship.. Smking doesn't sound so cool isn't it? except for those smokers round here..
I believe peer pressure is one of the largest factors in causing young people to smoke. They are regarded as the 'uncool' kid if they don't smoke and their friends smoke, so they start smoking too. I heard that people who do their first smokes usually cough and find it horrible, so the only logical explanation would be external pressure from other people. So they pretend that they enjoy it, and soon they get addicted.
HI,
People probably start smoking for fashion. In the initial stages they feel that smoking is in their control , It's true until they addicted to it. They even don't recognize that they are in the trap of smoke. When they realize, condition goes out of their hand. Once a person addicted to smoke, as smoke goes to his/her lungs makes a feel of refreshment to him/her. Tobaco kills somany people per anum.It's a sad that people spoil their lives for smoke. I feel its not the issue of men or women. and I strongly feel that governments has to take right steps to stop it.

I know people that smoke cause it keeps them skinny (mostly girls). Also, some people may have innate oral fixations. If they can't chew on pens, they smoke. If they can't smoke, they bite their nails. I never touched the stuff and can't stand people who smoke. You can show me the finest girl in the world and if she smokes, I won't go near her. Just gross chemicals...
My mother used to smoke, but she managed to quit. My father smokes, but he tries to get me and my siblings to never start doing it. I do not know if they have, but that is their problem. All I know is that I get a free drivers licence and some more things if I never start. I am not that kind of person, so I would not ever start with it anyway. But it seems like all my other friends forgot all the things we learned at school; that it is bad and unhealthy. But still they started with it! People have asked me before if I wanted one, but I have always said no. Why should I? It is bad and it costs a lot of money.
Of course it is pressure. I have chosen not do do it, so I will not. Believe it or not it is easier for me. Many of my friends always says how cool I am that keep myself away from those things, but yet they still do it? I think it is good that the government bans smokers from some places. We have it here too. It is good for all of us that do not smoke... sure it must be horrible and annoying for smokers, but smoke is something that does not only hurt yourself but also your environment. It is also good for those who works at bars, cafés or any other place that they do not get affected by the smoke... especially if they do not want to. I really do freak out in smoke, it has never been good for me something my doctor stated very much when I was younger. People that grow up now have all the knowledge of how bad smoking is for you and your environment - so I do not understand why! Pressure is not a good enough excuse, why should anyone do something that is bad for you just because "everyone" else does it? People that grew up many years ago did not have the knowledge. If they knew I am sure a lot fewer people would begin to smoke. QUOTE(haberjj01 @ May 30 2008, 11:19 PM) I started smoking mainly because i wanted to see what the big deal was. I grew up with my parents smoking so it was so normal to me. Then I kept smoking because it did give me a buzz which was cool for a while. But mainly the reason why I have stayed to smoking is because it makes it easier to meet people and is an awesome stress reliever for me. Now that I am older and very much addicted, I want to quit but it ain't easy. As for the government stepping in to stop it; that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. If they put an end to smoking what then? Alcohol? Skateboarding? Trampolines? Seriously, smokers are already banned from most restaurants, hotels, and now bars (how ridiculous is that, save the people who are damaging their livers with alcohol from cigarette smoke). If someone is blowing smoke in your face that's one thing, other than that just stop being so offended. People have a right to slowly kill themselves with cigarettes. They know it's not good for them but they do it anyways. That's their right. I am actually very happy with the laws that prohibit smoking in public places. You forget that second hand smoke hurts everyone around you. True you have a right to kill yourself (as mean as that sounds), but you have no right to in danger the lives of other people.
Almost everyone in my family smokes. I try to get them to quit or slow down. but they tell me to quit with the internet. So yeah, telling a smoker to stop, is like telling a nerd their internet is getting turned off.
