Smoking hot?

 
OBB 2004-04-05 07:02:39 PM  
They're probably making up for the fact they don't have anything else to smoke.

Well, that just goes to PROVE that homosexuals are absolutely evil, and should be rounded up and buried in sticky hot lava.

Quick! Before the Real Patriots lose the presidency!

on the plus side, they have pretty low rates of teen pregnancy

Antigay stigma and harassment, rejection from family and friends, and sometimes even physical violence can create a hostile environment for many young people coming to terms with their sexual orientation.

...or, girls who rebel by smoking are likely to also think "being gay" is a way to be rebelious. Nothing against actual teenage lesbians (as opposed to 'look-at-me-I'm-gay' Hot-Topic shopping lesbians, the group with whom smoking is so rampant), I'm just bothered when an actual explanation for statistics is abandoned because it's not politically correct.

There may be something to that - it is one of the thoughts that crossed my mind before I wrote my plain old rightie bashing post - but really, that isn't how most gay people think. Being gay isn't a decision that you make to be more popular. At least, certainly not for guys. O_o

Though certainly, some people do have a measure of rebellion against their parents. I don't think it is a terribly large percentage, though.

 
OneHandFapping 2004-04-05 07:13:29 PM  
So, does that mean Tatu smokes?

 
knucklebreather 2004-04-05 07:14:50 PM  
To clarify, the researchers claim could be disproven by studying this question: Did you begin smoking regularly before or after you realized you were gay? Most would answer that they started before. Correlation... causation... who needs them?

Bravo. *golf clap*

Maybe they're just trying to get the taste out of their mouths....

 
dettigersnw22 2004-04-05 08:55:39 PM  
Whats their popular brand? Virginia Slims?

 
Howard Dean 2004-04-05 08:56:57 PM  
If they are smoking, they either need to slow down or apply more lube.

 
holierthanthou 2004-04-05 08:57:10 PM  
Are these Asian teenage lesbians? If so, any pics?

Thanks in advance.

 
utlaw2004 2004-04-05 08:57:41 PM  
But do smoking teenagers have high rates of lesbianism?

 
Cheesus 2004-04-05 08:58:54 PM  
I figured their parents would smoke more. No wait, I guess that's more for guys.

 
mikesum32 2004-04-05 08:59:43 PM  
Vagina Slims

 
SparkyThePlug 2004-04-05 09:00:31 PM  
Lesbians or "cut my hair short, not shave my pits, wear shiatty clothes and lots of piercings and complain that I'm opressed whenever I don't like something" lesbians?

Woo-hoo, my first approved submission and I'm not even a lesbian teenager.

 
Iknhaton 2004-04-05 09:03:02 PM  
Htf can you have a story about teenage lesbians without pictures???

 
EatTheRich 2004-04-05 09:03:47 PM  
I'll be needing pictures on this.

Thanks in advance.

 
Alexis 2004-04-05 09:03:55 PM  
Oddly enough, I cannot think of a single humourous or insightful thing to say about this.

 
scarlet_begonia [TotalFark] 2004-04-05 09:04:28 PM  
I've known this for awhile...
Most of the "teenage lesbians" I know (and thats a good number) do, in fact, smoke.
Takes away from the hotness, if you ask me, but then, what do I know?

 
Assh 2004-04-05 09:04:35 PM  
Shocking. Really, it is.

/takes anther drag and pays homage to the Goddess, Angelina.

 
doormat18 2004-04-05 09:04:59 PM  
This should have an obvious tag with it. Who knew dykes smoke alot!?!?

 
Super Bee 2004-04-05 09:05:02 PM  
They're also the most retarded... friggin eMpTyV monkey-see-monkey-do idiots.

Poor Tatu.

I couldn't care less, although-if you paid me I might be able to care less.

That reminds me of a good joke.

Q:How many lesbians does it take to change a lightbulb?

A: That's not funny.

/really, no offense intended

Bravo. See, I'm in high school right now, and it seems that recently there's been an influx of dirty, trailer-dwellin', Wally-World-shoppin', West Coast Chopper t-shirt-wearin', tokin' "lesbians" coming out of the woodwork. *Sniffs* I smell attention whores. I weep for the real gay kids that these girls are giving the bad name to.

It sucks just a much to be an actual lesbian. I'm bi and even I get treated like the lowes common denominator. Must be he fact that I live in the south...

 
chaffed 2004-04-05 09:07:46 PM  
Kill two birds with one stone. Have them smoke some of the D.

 
Lance Uppercut 2004-04-05 09:09:09 PM  
This article reminded me of a joke I had seen online before.
I searched and found a version of it.
NSFW!!!How to get a lesbian to stop smoking.NSFW!!!

Q: How many straight men does uit take to change a light bulb?

A: They never change anything. They just hire Ari Fleischer to convince you change has happened already, and that dark is teh new hotness.

That is the single most disturbing thing I've ever seen. Given the choice between that and seeing the old men sucking c**k from last week, I'll take the skin flutin' geezers.

In other news, RJ Reynolds to unveil new lesbian smoking campaign, featuring cartoon character Toe Camel.

I find that the benefits far outweigh any negative consequences...

Perhaps they should start smoking the "white owl"

 
Blake_Goodthrust 2004-04-05 09:11:48 PM  
I suppose even stamp lickers need to get the taste out of their mouth somehow.

 
MllePink 2004-04-05 09:12:04 PM  
Of course, my previous post also relates to the wondrous girl/girl kissing argument threads that are so popular with Farkers. Go on, I know someone wants to start another one up.

 
JohnnyDanger 2004-04-05 09:12:21 PM  
How did they differentiate between the 'true' lesbians and your average LUG?

 
masmasmas 2004-04-05 09:12:37 PM

Touche. Thanks for that.

 
CruJones 2004-04-05 09:13:59 PM  
12? I don't remember or not how much I liked girls at 12. How the hell can you know your gay at that age? I think I was still rocking with my GI Joes.

 
theurge14 2004-04-05 09:14:05 PM  
Blame Big Tobacco?

 
Bad_CRC 2004-04-05 09:14:11 PM  
who did this study, and where did they find all the teenage lesbians?

I want that job.

yes, thats all good. But, do you smoke??

Ok, I'm not quite getting this. You get treated like a hardware store? Like the cheapest tool in the hardware store? Oh, crap, now I'm gonna have my post followed by 20 lame "screw" and "nail" jokes.

 
orbital blowout 2004-04-05 09:15:34 PM  
They probably smoke Vagina Slime brand.
