In real life, every third man and every fourth woman uses alcohol to relax. 44% of women and 39% of men resort to a cigarette.
As you can see, women and girls are more likely than men to grab a cigarette! Moreover, many girls in earnest expect to lose weight through smoking. But in fact, in fact, young women lose weight, just giving up tobacco, and not vice versa. Also, Italian nutritionists found that the skin of a woman who quit smoking for 9 months of "no-nicotine" life is getting younger by an average of 13 years.
The nicotine and alcohol bind to themselves much faster the weaker sex, despite the fact that women are stronger than men biologically. The harmful habits of girls almost always remain unchanged for a long time. For example, a woman who drinks needs only 3 years to become a complete alcoholic, while a man takes about ten years to become a slave of the bottle.
