Cigar Trend Alerts Health Advocates
this information is for the worried blunt smokers or the pothead that just likes to know shit... this info. goes along with my theory, and hope its useful to ya as it is to me.
-Despite the public relations surrounding cigar use that depicts it as fashionable, trendy, and elegant, tobacco is still tobacco: a product with serious health risks.
-A different aspect of the cigar trend is the increasing use of cigars by young people. A practice called "blunting" has grown in popularity among inner-city youth. Cigars called "blunts," usually a Havatampa brand called Phillies Blunts, are purchased, emptied and filled with marijuana, then smoked as a front for pot use. Some believe this practice to have a "reverse gateway" effect, leading from pot use to tobacco use as young people find themselves growing accustomed to tobacco products and purchasing cigars or cigarettes when blunts are not readily available. Though an accompaniment to the overall cigar trend, "blunting" is a different phenomena than adult cigar use and requires a different response from health advocates. "Blunting" shows how cigar use directly affects youth.
-A number of actors have jumped on the cigar bandwagon, openly displaying and discussing their appreciation for cigars. Most prominently, women celebrities have become public endorsers of cigar smoking, promoting the concept that women are liberating themselves from the stereotype that only powerful men smoke cigars.
