They normally don't buy their cigarettes... most of them bum, just as they beg for money. At least that's the way it is around here....

But the smell, the voice, the coughing, the (I assume) taste, are all major turnoffs. So really... a girl smoking from a distance, or on TV is sexy... but when I have to confront the reality of it, I find my attraction turning to repulsion.

I don't think I could ever date a smoker. The smell and everything about it bugs me. Another smoking related pet peeve is homeless people asking for money while smoking. I hate to sound insensitive, but if you're really that desperate don't spend your money on cigarettes. If the choice is between food and shelter or smokes then you should be able to quit. One day I feel like telling one of these smokers asking me for money how I feel, but I don't think I have the nerve to do so. Smoking is a huge turn-off for me.

In a bar, I once took away a girl's cigarettes in order to avoid her blowing the dust into my face, which resulted in her biting into my hand to get them back... I don't like them either.
