Sex Sells...Add an E Cig to Your Sexy Arsonal

You got your stilletos, your fishnet hosiery, maybe even a garter belt for those special occasions, when you are hitting the clubs or on a man hunt...why not add an all black e cigarette (sans nicotine, or with, up to you...) to the look.

Imagine yourself, leaning up against a wall, non chalently blowing wisps of smoke through your glossy, cherry lips, your skin tight dress and glistening skin attracting attention from all over the room.  The smoke only adds to your mystery.  It doesnt have an unappealing smell, doesnt leave you tasting like an ashtray, and if you go with the non nicotene kind, won't even hurt your health.  Win win.

I had a lot to learn about e cigs, but as a prop for a sexy look, they cannot be beat.  If you want to learn more, check out the link at the top of my blog page to E Cig 101.

Sexy and safe? How new fake cigarettes help smokers quit

By Susan Edmunds 10:00 AM Sunday Sep 8, 2013

World-first research shows trendy new electronic cigarettes are more effective than nicotine patches in helping smokers quit - so, to the consternation of health workers, tobacco companies are buying up e-cig brands

It was at a Ladi6 concert at the Powerstation recently that Nick Dwyer was tackled by a security guard.
He had taken out an e-cigarette and was taking a drag when she accosted him.
"But as soon as I said, 'no it's electronic', she was fine and started talking about getting one for herself," he remembers.
The breakfast radio host had tried several times to kick his smoking habit. Patches, lozenges, the Allen Carr quit smoking book ... nothing worked.
But when he started to have problems with his voice, he decided something had to be done.
The answer was e-cigarettes, filled with liquid nicotine and available in a range of flavours, including one similar to the Dunhill Blue he used to smoke.
Dwyer smokes them on air, in the back of taxis and even on planes.
"I haven't had a single cigarette in five months," he says. "I used to smoke a pack or a pack-and-a-half a day but I love this stuff.

You get the nicotine hit and you're holding something that in every way, shape and form feels like a cigarette."
Now, the Herald on Sunday can reveal that electronic cigarettes are more effective in helping smokers quit - and keeping them smoke-free - than nicotine patches and non-nicotine cigarettes.
That is the finding in world-first research, which Auckland University associate professor Chris Bullen will present to the European Respiratory Society Annual Congress in Spain today.
E-cigarettes have been around for less than 10 years, but their popularity is soaring in the United States and Europe.
From a few thousand users in 2006 to millions this year, e-cigarettes are now a billion-dollar industry.
The proportion of US teenagers who say they have tried e-cigarettes has doubled to 10 per cent over the past two years.
In New Zealand, 6 to 8 per cent of young people say they have tried e-cigarettes; a third of those who smoke say they have tried "vaping", as it's been dubbed.
Next week, e-cigarette vendors will show their wares at an expo in Anaheim, California.
At Vapefest in Las Vegas the same weekend, more than 50 companies will offer free samples and discounts on the latest electronic cigarettes, ranging from traditional tobacco flavour to coffee, grape and cherry.
But in a throwback to the 1940s and 50s when tobacco companies paid Hollywood actors including Betty Grable, Jean Harlow, Clark Gable and Frank Sinatra to promote their product, a new generation of stars is now popularising e-cigarettes.
Jenny McCarthy, former Playmate of the Year and wife of Hollywood A-lister Jim Carrey, has built a mass media profile on American talkshow The View.
This year, she became the face of Blu e-cigarettes, one of the most popular brands in the US. She says in an TV advertisement that one of the reasons she switched to them is because smoking turns men off.

Hollywood Goes Up in E Smoke? Does E Smoking Make A Difference in Movie Mood Making?

The above movie clip is from The Tourist, and features Johnny Depp smoking an e cigarette on a train. 
Hollywood movie makers use smoking heavily in movies since the first images were burned onto celluloid.  The vision of a man or woman lighting and smoking a cigarette is used to create a mood, pause a scene or help to tell us something about the character.  Does that change when the character is smoking an e cigarette?  Compare with the below movie scene classic. 
What do you think?

Is "Women's Smoking Culture" Freudian Soft-Core Porn?

Not many would deny there is a kind of sensuality to a person smoking. As a woman, I have always found a man smoking to be a sexy thing to watch... if I found him attractive in the first place.  One of my very first boyfriends smoked.. maybe it's part of the "bad-boy" attraction thing, I dunno, but it was sexy as hell, watching him light up a cigarette. Mmmm.

Of course, smelling and tasting like a cigarette wasnt so sexy, and, again, as a woman, I never thought women smoking was very lady-like. Except for the Old-Hollywood gals who somehow made  it look gorgeous.  Of course, they had total class. Wearing pearls and silk gowns, smoking a long cigarette looked so much sexier than some middle-aged hill billy like myself smoking in jeans and a t-shirt off the front porch.

In any case, apparently, men do find the sight of a beautiful woman smoking a sensual, no, sexual event.  Men are visually stimulated -that's a fact, so, of course, the vision of a hot chick blowing delicate trails of smoke from between slightly parted lips would be a turn on.

Who knew enough dudes thought so that it would be qualified as a fetish! Websites are dedicated to it, videos are made, and, well, photos of gals blowing smoke just turn guys on.

Now that my eyes are open to this new organized group of smoke voyeurs I only have one question...
Are their sites like this featuring men smoking??
