Translated from a poster in Jordan: “Smoking for a long period of time affects marital relations.” Smoking is entrenched in Arab culture. The National Jordanian Anti-Smoking Society asserts that 21% of students aged 13-18 smoke cigarettes or hookah, despite it being illegal to sell tobacco products to kids! Emphasizing negative impacts such as diminished sexual performance is expected to provide new motivation to kick the habit, especially among young smokers. “We need something to give smokers a shock,” said Dr. Mohammed Mehrez, head of the Egyptian tobacco control department. Wide cultural acceptance of die-hard smoking presents real challenges to these campaigns.
