Smoking is a practice in which a substance is burned, inhaled, tasted and absorbed into the bloodstream. It should be noted that there is a great danger or effect in smoking.

Below are some health effects of smoking:

Lung cancer

Smoking causes lung cancer by blocking the flow of gaseous materials (the inhale of oxygen and exhale of carbon dioxide).

First in England, then in the USA, brands of filter cigarettes appeared. Initially, male smokers took literally “with hostility”. It took ten years to make buyers give preference to them using strong images, advertising campaigns, and convictions about the usefulness of the filter.

It’s worth recalling, at least, the Camel advertisement, with a brave cowboy. In Australia, the same is Camel cigarettes https://www.aucig.com/product-page/camel-filters-20-s which are always available in every shop. By the way, the company spent, according to very rough data, about one and a half billion dollars on an advertising campaign to promote its new brand with a filter.

Thus, it is not surprising that gradually, from a symbol of masculinity and strength, cigarettes without a filter became a sign of poverty and rudeness.

Even modern directors sometimes use the image of a person smoking cigarettes without a filter to show it from the negative side or to emphasize that the character has at least financial problems.

A vivid example of this is Quentin Tarantino, who, in the movie Pulp Fiction, forces his hero, Boxer Butch, to smoke cigarettes without a filter.

The stereotype, through the efforts of advertisers, has taken root. Now filterless cigarettes remain a symbol of rudeness, poverty, although many people deliberately prefer them.
