Hey, guys. Thinking about quitting? C’mon, you know what I’m talking about, don’t play dumb. But it’s not easy, right? Nothing that things ever is. Platitudes aside, there must be something that can motivate you to finally put it out for good, right? I mean, whether death statistics aren’t strong ample scare tactics, I don’t know what is. Oh wait … wait, wait, wait … perhaps there is something that might manufacture you think twice about lighting up. Yeah, that might do the trick.

You smoke, you become less of a man. Instantly. By now I’m certain you’ve heard that there exists a potential link within smoking and erectile dysfunction. But did you know that even a without dose of nicotine can impair sexual function? Yup, that’s right, a individual dose.

In a study conducted at the University of Texas, researchers broke their male volunteers into two groups: Nicorette and placebo. The first group, as you probably figured, was given Nicorette gum. The moment group, as you plus probably figured, were given a placebo. Forty minutes later, the researchers had all of the men watch a pornographic film. thereupon — and that is where things get a little weird, but I suppose it’s all in the name of science — the scientists wired electrodes to each volunteer’s penis, allowing them to degree erectile response. Based on the results, the researchers concluded that nicotine had caused a 23 percent decrease in erectile response and sexual arousal.

Now is it date to finally stop smoking?
