Vaping is mimicking smoking so yes I still see the person as a smoker.

Also most people I know that vape have the bloody thing permanently stuck in their mouth like an adult pacifier & they still smoke.

No. Smoking has been acquired over decades as the term for cigarette, cigar and pipe combustion inhalation of tobacco and similar material.

Consumption of nicotine via other methods isn't smoking, whether chews, patches or vapours.

When I use aromatic herbs etc with steam, such as eucalyptus, menthol or whatever I am not smoking, even though these enter my lungs and nasal or oral passages. Many people do this when congested and would laugh at the ridiculousness of thinking it's smoking. It would also be permitted in public spaces.

Anti-smoking zealots have pushed their obsession too far and it's become ridiculous at such an extreme.

Heroin was brought in to 'cure' opium addicts, methodone was brought in to 'cure' heroin addicts.

If you want to quit smoking then quit, dont try and tell yourself that you're doing good by still being hooked

Seriously?! You're worried about 'getting addicted' to 4 ingredients when you're currently addicted to up to 5000 ingredients?! Which include arsenic, battery acid, rat poison, tar...need I go on?!

And those of you who are saying 'just stop' you try 'just stopping' being addicted to one of the most addictive substances on earth!

I will continue to vape as long as I want to, as long as i'm not poisoning myself and others around me with cigarettes I don't care if i'm still classed as a smoker by some of you folk or not, because I KNOW i'm not smoking! The clue is in the word...vapour. Not smoke.

That could be true , but we honestly have never had a meet request turned down because we smoke , and half the requests we get are from non smokers and those who won't meet smokers !

Yes: you inhale chemicals into your body and the most selfish "vapers" exhale all that crap over other people - the worst is when you see them stood outside in a public area and you see fuck huge clouds of chemicals being breathed out. I've seen clouds of crap being breathed out reaching 8-10 metres away.

Absolutely yes, it's still smoking. And it's still bad for you. And it's still selfish when you do it over other people.

I don't consider them smokers, technically, no, but it's close enough that I'd want to know about it prior to a meet and be able to make an informed decision.

It's still ingesting nicotine, so it still has some of the effects of smoking.

It's better than smoking in many ways, but I'm still not a fan.

Have you ever tried them? They're usually made with sweeteners that also happen to be laxatives. Diabetic sweets must usually be handled with extreme care!

"So you're now addicted to something else?

No I am not addicted to it can can got days with using it

Then why bother at all?

Give it up like you gave up the fags.

The simple reason is cos I like vaping and one will stop me doing it I give up cigs and I am happy with that but I ain't stopping vaping for on one cos I want to do it

If you just liked the flavours you could buy sweets.

I don't want sweets it's up to me what I do on one else "

You sound a bit defensive. You did ask for opinions.

If I arranged a meet with someone who said they were a non-smoker and, when they arrived, it turned out they were a vaper, I'd leave/ask them to leave. I'd consider it dishonest.

It's not dishonest cos it's not smoking and it's says on my site that I am a vaper

I'd consider them dishonest if they didn't tell me.

Vapers know some people don't like it and some people may not want to meet them because of it.

Not telling someone upfront is dishonest.

I still class myself as a smoker although I haven't had a proper cig in months

LONDON (se)

The reason I don't like to meet smokers is because of how they smell and taste. People that vape don't have that. You can get nicotine free ones. You are inhaling steam with flavoured liquid so it isn't smoking. It's like calling me a smoker because everyday I take an inhaler.

Or when I'm all stuffed up I put oils in hot water and inhale all the steam. That is just like vaping. So no as a non smoker I would not call someone that vape a smoker. The steam from them has no affect on my lungs what so ever and it really doesn't bother me at all.

Some vapes have nicotine free liquid, and tbh I wouldn't class using a vape as smoking, but I also wouldn't wanna meet someone that has it stuck in their gob all the way through a meet or social...

I'm totally shocked at the ignorance on this subject. For those who talk about inhaling chemicals with vaping...go and do some fucking research. 4 ingredients. FOUR! For fucks sake. And except nicotine they are ALL found in food anyway!

Plus, there are studies which suggest nicotine itself is beneficial to your health.

For those who ask how much money vaping costs i'll tell you from my perspective. I used to spend circa £50 a week on tobacco. I now spend a maximum of £5 a week on vaping.

If I choose to have a less expensive, less unhealthy, less disgustingly stinky habit, who the fuck are you to tell me i'm childish?!

Yet I've found with capers I can get a weird taste from them I've always been a non smoker so maybe I'm more sensitive to the difference, but kissing a vapour isn't half as bad as a smoker.

It's annoying!

Big clouds of sherbet lemon flavored stuff pumped all over you from people who think it's harmless because it isn't a fag!

The sheer amount of vapour or whatever it is that comes out of some of them is enough to make your eyes water!

As an ex smoker I agree that it's a great tool to help you give up disgusting ciggies - but to claim it's harmless and continue to puff it over everyone in public places is annoying!

As with standardised food labels the producers of the products don't have to list the ingredients that they "may contain" and a lot of studies found to find other things hidden in them that weren't listed as an ingredients as the could be reasons explained away as "accidental cross contamination" because the results found different things in the odd vapour products, when same brands and flavours were examined. I have a daughter that as a Cows milk protein allergy and these things happen with some foods where products don't say on the packaging (as they are not legally required to) they may contain milk, but when your child as a reaction and you contact the manufacturer they then say that yes it's a may contain product. So from that prespective to say read the ingredients it's safe is fairly naive.

Also with e-cig it's the nano particles that are inhaled that settle on your lungs that can cause issues especially if the person has an exsisting lung condition or in the case of some smokers that have converted to them, they have already weakened their chest from smoking in the first place

Of course all these studies are considered to be "comparable" unfortunately e-cigs haven't been around long enough to have evidence of the long term effects as of yet.

From a psychology stand point you can argue that they aren't really that good for you on the level that you've just swapped one addiction for another, which isn't considered an healthy trait to do, but it is a typical trait represented in many recovering addicts. Not that I'm calling you an recovering addict just giving some prespective from another angle

There has been a fair bit of research concluding vaping is potentially harmful to people passively vaping. Not all the research claims it's harmless. Plus some of the research that claims it is harmless was funded or carried out by parties with a vested interest.

It's not pure steam though. It contains nicotine, (yes I know nicotine free liquids exist but most don't use them because nicotine is the point of vaping for most), and propylene glycol. Vapour can also contain formaldehyde, and volatile organic compounds. The water vapour itself can also be harmful, as pointed out, because it's released as very fine droplets.

A study on mice showed inhaling vapour regularly increased the susceptibility to respiratory infections.

Because we're exposed to noxious fumes on a daily basis doesn't mean we should be happy to breathe more potentially harmful substances when there should be no need to.

Why should non-smokers have to put up with something harmful at all?

If vapers/smokers want to take the risk, fine but how can it ever be ok to impose that on someone else without their consent?

Err can I just point out...nicotine is in chewing tobacco and beta nut or quid! Both of these have been proved to cause mouth cancer.

The truth is, vaping hasn't been around long enough for good scientific research to be carried out on its dangers. So the jury is still out.

If vapers/smokers want to take the risk, fine but how can it ever be ok to impose that on someone else without their consent?

"It's ok judge, I only ran over him with a car. It's fine, that's much less harmful than using a lorry"

why should anyone have to inhale noxious gasses everyday?

If you choose to leave your house (actually if you just choose to be alive) you are doing so.

I think people should be thankful that there are fewer people actually smoking. "

So because air pollution exists it's ok to force more onto people?

Anyone choosing to leave their house is consenting to breathe potentially harmful vapour? Otherwise they'd stay home?

Leaving the house for most people isn't a choice. People need to work and such. Because they choose to have a life doesn't make it ok to force your vapour on them.

Smokers used to use the same arguments. "If you don't want to breathe smoke, don't go to the pub" etc. It's selfish. Why should the person not polluting the air and harming others be the one expected to stay home?

I'm not 'telling myself' i'm making an informed decision based on research. And yes, there has been a bucketload of research.

There has been a fair bit of research concluding vaping is potentially harmful to people passively vaping. Not all the research claims it's harmless. Plus some of the research that claims it is harmless was funded or carried out by parties with a vested interest."

And those studies have been roundly de-bunked as flawed, unscientific, and in many cases the press has reported "findings", that have not been published.

As ever, when there are competing agendas, finding the truth can be difficult.

But some facts:-

All organic smoke contains polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) which are carcinogenic, the chief offender being Benzo alpha pyrene (BAP). It's not tobacco per-se, it could be lettuce or alfalfa.

Wood and coal smoke are both extremely high in BAP and you might want to think about that at your next barbecue or bonfire.

E-liquid is generally either or both, propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin. Both are in many foods, mouthwashes etc. and considered safe chemicals for human consumption. Propylene glycol is used to make theatre/club/gig dry ice. There are people who work in this environment every day - so there's your test group for passive inhalation.

The two biggest worries for me, apart from the purity of the base ingredients are the flavourings - diacetyl being the worst, and the quality of the coils.

Diacetyl is used in popcorn and prolonged exposure causes a lung condition known as popcorn lung.

The coils are typically nickel chromium (nichrome) wire. If heated too high, or if dry burned with a high powered battery, nano particles of nickel and chromium find their way in to the vapour. The studies that found these particles were de-bunked as having used excessively high power on nearly dry coils. One such study decided themselves that their results were rubbish and so did not publish, but the press widely reported it anyway.

Organic smoke (not just tobacco) contains around 2000 known carcinogens.

E-liquid vapour contains none, unless the vaping device is used outside of it's design parameters.

Many people have an irrational knee jerk reaction, just because it looks like smoking. One person I know started waving their arms around saying it should be banned - I hadn't even activated it, I was just resting it in my mouth as one does with a pen.

So yes, in my case it's a substitute, but all my researches to date strongly indicate a far less un-healthy one. Many people I know have used a vaper successfully to transition off cigarettes and vaping altogether.

Of course others have a right not to be enveloped in a cloud of vapour, but to class it as smoking, is by definition, incorrect.

Think it depends how you look at it really, as an ex smoker it can sometimes be off putting if playing with someone who smells of smoke, but saying that most are considerate and usually pop a mint and spray a little perfume etc. So in this respect a vapoure would be fine as it has non of the issues created by a cig. Not certain that answers the question but it's a _iew lol Xxx

"So you're now addicted to something else?

No I am not addicted to it can can got days with using it

Then why bother at all?

Give it up like you gave up the fags.

The simple reason is cos I like vaping and one will stop me doing it I give up cigs and I am happy with that but I ain't stopping vaping for on one cos I want to do it

If you just liked the flavours you could buy sweets.

I don't want sweets it's up to me what I do on one else

You sound a bit defensive. You did ask for opinions.

If I arranged a meet with someone who said they were a non-smoker and, when they arrived, it turned out they were a vaper, I'd leave/ask them to leave. I'd consider it dishonest.

It's not dishonest cos it's not smoking and it's says on my site that I am a vaper "

It's not on my profile. When you vape your clothes or breathe doesn't smell of tobacco. I meet smokers but they wouldnt get near me if they'd just had one, it stinks. When you vape you blow out steam! It's not harmful to be around a vaper!

I don't give a fuck about carbon footprints, I'm sure mine is sky high. But my hair and clothes don't smell of my carbon footprint (flavoured liquids DO smell, whatever the shops are telling you), I don't hop out of bed 30 seconds after sex to get a fix of my carbon footprint, or puff clouds of my carbon footprint over your face.

But I class someone as being a smoker because they are addicted to the action of sucking on something that's going to create a cloud of some sort of misty stuff. I really don't care if that's water vapour and steam with some gross artificial flavour in it or cigarette smoke.

The action, the addiction, the behaviour and the habit is what makes a smoker, and that is no different with vaping.

Personally I don't use the liquids, I use the 10motives ecigarette which doesn't produce clouds of vapour...and I still consider myself a smoker. However, to someone who lives in fresh, clean country air towns and cities do smell due to the pollution of cars, power stations etc so I don't mean carbon footprints, I do mean the actual smell.

I am merely highlighting that the vast majority of people take the stance that their actions, behaviours, lifestyle choices are fine and everyone else should accept them but in turn are not so accepting of others.

You defend your position of burning fossil fuels as you can't detect any offensive smell caused so those who do are not to be considered yet those creating smells you find offensive are not acceptable.

I have to agree though that someone who blows vapour in your face is just plain rude.

Big clouds of sherbet lemon flavored stuff pumped all over you from people who think it's harmless because it isn't a fag!

The sheer amount of vapour or whatever it is that comes out of some of them is enough to make your eyes water!

As an ex smoker I agree that it's a great tool to help you give up disgusting ciggies - but to claim it's harmless and continue to puff it over everyone in public places is annoying!

But its not being used as a way to stop, they're still addicted, they still have the smoking habit. "

Yes that's the shame of it - great way to get off fags, but as an ex-smoker it seems madness to me not to use it to wean off altogether, its still a controlling habit that takes a great deal of time, effort and expense to maintain. The point of giving up to me was to be FREE of ALL of that.

Yeah, I'm with you on the whole regulation, purity thing, I'd like to see more regulation and control in this area.

I'd also welcome more independent research.

The best I can do is to source my liquid from an ISO Class 5 clean room facility, but yes, I still don't know for sure exactly what all the ingredients are and that any trace ingredients are below certain permissible levels.

What I do know is, that smoking will foreshorten your life. All the credible independent research thus far, indicates little or no harmful effects if using quality liquids and a quality device. My own anecdotal experience (health, aerobic capacity, olfactory acuity etc.), which are widely experienced by others who have made the transition, also corroborate this.

I have no wish to inflict it on anyone else, nor am I suggesting people take it up as a new hobby.

I agree, ideally one would give up altogether. I was a 40 a day rollup smoker for over 30 years. I tried to give up several times, my best being 6 months, but every day was as bad as the first day, it just never got any easier.

With vaping, I stopped smoking cigarettes completely within a week.

I used to buy half price tobacco from France/Spain (EU tax paid), and I'd get through around £60 a month, very cheap compared to the £8 a day for regular ciggies. Now I get through around £10 a month in vaping consumables.

I can abstain from vaping for long periods now without discomfort, such as when flying long haul. Whereas when I was smoking, I would by desperate for a cigarette most of the time.

So yes, I'd like to give up completely, but I do have a long standing, well ingrained habit, which for me, is a right bitch to ditch. So vaping is the best thing since sliced bread as far as I'm concerned. I monitor the research, source high quality consumables and try to be considerate

So the safest option overall is to quit totally.

Use the vape to wean off the fags & then stop.

Otherwise you've replaced one addiction with another.

I'm glad when I quit these vape things weren't around otherwise I'd probably be sucking on one!

I used to buy half price tobacco from France/Spain (EU tax paid), and I'd get through around £60 a month, very cheap compared to the £8 a day for regular ciggies. Now I get through around £10 a month in vaping consumables.

I can abstain from vaping for long periods now without discomfort, such as when flying long haul. Whereas when I was smoking, I would by desperate for a cigarette most of the time.

So yes, I'd like to give up completely, but I do have a long standing, well ingrained habit, which for me, is a right bitch to ditch. So vaping is the best thing since sliced bread as far as I'm concerned. I monitor the research, source high quality consumables and try to be considerate

So could you not gradually reduce the nicotine content? By the time you were down to zero you would only have a habit to deal with, not an addiction.

Nicotine is found in tomatoes and other foods, do we count tomatoe eaters as smokers?

Many silly arguments above, some sensible ones, and a lot of predictable prejudice for and against.

You may vape in my home, but please don't fart.

One certainty of life is death, so if you are in my bed, please leave all watches phones and other time measuring devices outside... Time is a guaranteed killer

Because the laws haven't caught up yet.

Neither has the content analysis and health effects of the crap you're breathing in and breathing over other people.

Believe what you like. Do what you like. You will regardless, just like selfish smokers.

"K ....... Listen up and answer.... I thank you.

I have a regular meet. He smokes. He smokes outside. For ages now he's vaped.

He has now just started vaping in my house when he feels like it.

Post sex yesterday... he vaped in my bed.

This is where I got a little 'testy' to say the very least.

Is he taking a liberty ? Did I react adversely ?

Yes he is & no you didn't.

I've noticed that vapers seem to think it's okay to vape in restaurants. Errrr.....no thanks go outside with the smokers."

That's cause it is ok to vape I'm restaurants cause it's not band to do so like smoking is

Oh dear.

How many times? It may be vapour but it's not just water. And even if it is water, microdroplets of water can be harmful if inhaled.

Heard something about this a while back - made me think that there was a time when doctors would advise people to smoke - nobody then would have believed smoking was bad for them. But here we are with people happily smoking something new with no idea what it may or may not do to them.

This is the thing while e-cigs have been in development for years they haven't practically been in use long enough to really know the long term side effects and yes Drs did used to prescribe tobacco and even whisky medicinally way back when, now many years in the future we know how detrimental and wrong those prescriptions we're

No it's not when broken down naturally by the body, when broken down genetically or chemical is when issues can arise.

For someone that "doesn't have an issue" you're being very defensive and petulant.
