We've never seen that comment posted anywhere prior to now. Not sure how the two things relate (i.e., feeling guilty about being secretive (or less than honest) with a mate versus feeling guilty about watching a woman smoke who freely chooses to do so).

So, if you smoke, that means you get a pass, right? But if you don't smoke and someone you never met smokes on camera and makes a few bucks on the side, that means you should feel guilty about watching it, right?

Amazing! That's wild to say the least.

We could see your point if a non-smoker (or even a smoker) was involved in somehow coercing another person to smoke (e.g., "Honey, since we're dating, you're going to start smoking so I can watch). Yeah, we could see your point on that one.

But for a non-smoker to feel a sense of guilt over the fact that a complete stranger happens to enjoy smoking and he/she gets to watch? Man, that's truly a stretch. Feeling guilt over something of that nature is reserved for people with self-persecution issues that are completely off the chart.

People who shoulder those kinda guilt trips really need to seek professional help. In the meantime ...
