Smokers vs Vapers

By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

I was wondering how the non smokers felt about vapers vaping. I completely understand not wishing to get funky with smokers for a number of reasons, I just wondered if vapers are considered like smokers by folks here.

I'm an ex smoker who used vaping to quit, meeting with smokers doesn't bother me anymore, but I know how it could. People who vape though, I think it's a little different.

Great topic ...often thought about this ourselves ...as we are non smokers, we always have preference towards those who are also non smokers ....it bemuses us that individuals who vape consider themselves as nonsmokers and i suppose they now are ..however for us personally speaking, people who vape, are still smokers .....

An interesting point of view.. Surely the issue with smokers is the smell, and vapers don't smell, so what would be your issue?

Of course it does...

Where our issue lies is of the as of yet unregulated toxins...furthermore because vapors mistakenly believe they no longer smoke, some not all..may we add...think nothing of sitting in others company whilst vaping.....at least smokers will go outside ...

Some vapours do smell & that's why some publicans have banned people from using the vapours inside....

Ok maybe there is a tiny smell, but the smell doesn't linger on your breath or your clothes. As long as that person doesn't vape in front of you then it wouldn't effect you at all. You wouldnt even know.

Some vapours smell, it doesn't bother me as I meet smokers. Only down side to smokers is when I'm out with friends it's a tad annoying going out for a smoke.

As a non smoker the vape stuff is equally stinky from their breath..

So for me they are in and the same thing.

No thanks..

For me, vaping should be included in the bracket of smoking and be banned from public places. It's is an untested activity and as such, the effects of vaping are unknown. Until they are known. It should be included in the smoking bracket. I don't mind meeting smokers but I would prefer any I meet to refrain from smoking while with me. I used to smoke myself and I wouldn't dream of smoking during a meet.

I wouldn't smoke much, mainly when having a beer, vapour is like having a wank, it's not the same as having the real thing.

Having quit smoking in January I would consider myself a non smoker but I use a vape so maybe that makes me a vaper ? I never use it inside I always go outside that's for a few reasons 1) I am still unsure what's in the liquid so even though mine doesn't smell there is definitely still harmful toxins ,2) if I go outside I still feel like I'm getting to have a real smoke

Interesting mix in the replies there. I vape with a drink sometimes, but go weeks without either, so I consider myself a non smoker. It's been years since I had a cigarette and I doubt I ever will again. I always ask if I'm in company anyway. I wouldn't vape inside, I sometimes miss the Banter in the smoking area though. Good way to strike up a conversation sometimes.

I just wondered as its no longer a black and white, smoker or non smoker question anymore. It's hard to kick the cigarettes, fair play to those that are trying, in whatever way.

We both vape. I don't like chocolate, herSelf doesn't like garlic snails. Should we stop meeting chocolate lovers and those who love a smelly French garlic snail dish?. I love the smell of diesel, should I refuse to meet petrol heads? I do enjoy people from all walks of life, big, slim, white, black, English, French Catholic, church of Ireland/England, Muslim, Jewish. ... I wonder who is the better person????? The lover or the haters. True story, a smoker and non smoker goes into a bar, both have a great time and enjoys and respect which others company, the leave together and looks forward to their next meet.

When I'm on a rant. So it's wrong to judge a person because their gay or bi, it's also not acceptable to judge a slim person to a larger person, it's also wrong to judge a Muslim from a Jew, it's wrong to judge white from black, but for some strange reason it in some jumped up people it's wrong to judge a smoker or vapour to a non smoker. So some don't want to be seen as racist, so they would not dare to say I hate the blacks,gays, Muslims or Jews?? Because you know it isn't accepted, so why be seen to hate a smoker??? True colours shine

Confused .....? Who is hating who? Or am I reading your text wrong ? No one on this thread is condemning anyone for their personally life choices, nor should they .....

Comparisons to xenophobia, regardless of lethargy or level of intoxication is farcical. Clearly, for whatever reason one appears to have taken this thread as a personal attack.

There are reasons why smoking is banned in public places...and they are not purely on health grounds.

It's not unreasonable to believe that, the as yet unregulated nicotine water infused "vapouring", will in due course too be legislated against too.

Enjoy your evening. ....
