Smoking, has been and always will never be a manly thing to do. A recent study out of American Journal of Preventive Medicine just showed us another reason why.

In a population-based study of over 13000 men, Researchers from NYU Grossman School of Medicine and John Hopkins University School of Medicine found that men between the ages of 20 to 65 years old with no prior history of heart disease that use e-cigerattes are more than twice as likely to develop erectile dysfunction when compared to men who never use e-cigarettes. E-cigarettes were found to be an independent risk factors outside of other risk facts that can lead to erectile dysfunction.

Just more evidence that smoking makes you less of man. In conclusion, if you use e-cigarettes or “vape,” you should man up and stop using those things.
