Opponents of a proposed smoking ban in Alaska argue that it would increase women's chances of rape.
  • What about this?

    What about all those women who get hammered in bars and then go home with guys who sexually assault them? Wasn't there something in the New York Times recently about how women, especially college-age ones, turn into big sluts when they drink and are just asking to be raped?

    Did the pro-smokers ever think of that one?

    Maybe going outside for a cigarette will sober a woman up enough to realize the tool at the bar who's trying to get her to do tequila shots isn't Prince Charming and probably has a roofie in his pocket.
