[Science] Smoking and Drinking as a Short-Term Mating Strategy

[Limerencel]

A scientific study from 2016 studied how women (N=239) perceive men who smoke and drink, compared to non-using men. Here are the most important quotes from the study:

• The experiment showed that women perceive men who smoke and drink as being more short-term oriented in their sexuality than nonusers.
• Moreover, both tobacco and (especially) alcohol use brought some attractiveness benefits in short-term mating contexts.
• A follow-up study (N = 171) confirmed that men’s behavior corresponds with women’s perceptions.
• Overall, these findings show that cigarette and alcohol use can operate as a short-term mating strategy.

The study even went on to say that anti-tobacco commercials could have the opposite effect, since such harmful and risky behavior is perceived to be sexy by women. Basic decency and family values are declining every single day.

Everything that has happened since 1789 has been a mistake.

All the great philosophers knew there was something wrong with the female gender.

Everyone thought the female gender was flawed, virtually all religions, philosophies and ancient sayings.

We had been warned for thousands of years about the female nature. Civilization is simply unsustainable when you let out the female nature run freely.

[Life Wasted]

Women are attracted to degeneracy they are truly depraved. There is something inherently wrong with their programming.

These bitches need to be kept in check, many religions understood this. Now with religion falling more and more to the wayside the floodgates are being opened for their flawed nature to be unleashed upon us all.

it's also an indicator of social status, so it makes sense

I don't think the need to self-medicate using alcohol or tobacco, is a sign of high social status.

I don't either, but they are considered "social lubricants" for a reason.
