One man's psychologist is another man's proctologist.What one pays a psychiatrist to do with rubber duckies should be kept stumm... what happens on the couch, stays on the couch.
Quite true. Some can spend their entire lives exposed to certain carcinogenic substances and never develop cancer.
Or in the bath!What one pays a psychiatrist to do with rubber duckies should be kept stumm... what happens on the couch, stays on the couch.
Oh, she knows I smoke in the bath. The hot tub too. Perfect times to smoke.
I’m not really sure what part you say isn’t true.
I wouldn't rely on this. How do you know what group you fall in. I ride a 1000 pound motorcycle. I know the risks and elect to ride my bike. There are unknowns that I can't control. I elect to smoke a pipe for many of the same reasons.

Are you going to elaborate, or just keep throwing short sentences without explanations. Hell, maybe I am wrong, but just saying so isn’t going to change my mind. Some valid links would help, also.
I've known nonsmokers who've gotten lung cancer as well as those that have smoked for 50+ years without ever developing it. It's just genes and luck of the draw. If you're thinking that pipe smoking is any healthier than other tobacco use, you shouldn't rely on that either.
My great grandfather smoked cigarettes from 14 to 98, and had no sign of cancer. Babies die of cancer as young as young as 5 months.
Where is yours? You the one throwing “your wrongs” at us.
I smoke because I want to and understand the evidenced based medical risks. What other people want to do and how they want to rationalize smoking a pipe is their business. This just how I feel.
Where's yours? It's from personal experience with those that have or have not had it based on their life choices. The past few years have really lost my faith in accepted science and medicine so go push the virtue signaling elsewhere.
Why do you think they even screen for genetic risks for cancer? If it isn’t a factor, then they’re wasting my time and money. Why do some smokers live and smoke heavily for long lives while infants die of cancer?
Of course your entitled to your opinion, but you jumped into the conversation with “your wrong” bombs. Aren’t we entitled to opinions as well? Mine is just based on long conversations with my doctor.
Of course there are still risks. I wasn’t saying that there wasn’t.
