Smoking Ratio
What is female to male smoking prevalence Ratio? What is the reason for the increase of smoking women in the world.
Smoking among women was much less common than among men because women who smoked were not viewed as respectable. However, as society became increasingly tolerant of women who smoked, women’s smoking rates began to climb towards levels nearly as high as those seen among men.
The rise of smoking among women has been attributed not just to social factors and to women’s increasing economic resources, but also to the tobacco industry’s marketing of cigarettes to women as a symbol of emancipation.
