A cigarette is a product consumed via smoking and manufactured out of cured and finely cut tobacco leaves, which are combined with other additives, then rolled or stuffed into a paper-wrapped cylinder (generally less than 120 mm in length and 10 mm in diameter). The cigarette is ignited at one end and allowed to smoulder for the purpose of inhalation of its smoke from the other (usually filtered) end, which is usually inserted in the mouth. They are sometimes smoked with a cigarette holder. The term cigarette, as commonly used, refers to a tobacco cigarette but can apply to similar devices containing other herbs, such as cannabis. They are colloquially known as 'cigs', 'smokes', 'ciggies', 'cancer sticks', 'death sticks', 'coffin nails' and 'fags'.
Cigarettes are proven to be highly addictive, as well as a cause of multiple types of cancer, heart disease, respiratory disease, circulatory disease and birth defects.[1][2]
A cigarette is distinguished from a cigar by its smaller size, use of processed leaf, and white paper wrapping. Cigars are typically composed entirely of whole leaf tobacco.

i'm going to flow with the transgender/transsexual element... lots of the time, they instruct transgender or transsexual human beings as "very almost yet purely not fairly" their genuine gender, particularly with transsexual women. Like somebody who seems very almost like a woman, yet with a hideously exaggerated deep voice, or besides the fact that... Or somebody who seems very almost like a guy, yet then they label him lesbian or some junk. The LGBT community is critically lacking in a reliable "T" help. I even have been fully shocked to be sure people who avidly help gays and lesbians denounce trans-human beings, and gay and lesbians declare that transmen and transwomen are not "actual adult adult males" or "actual women"... you think of those human beings might understand greater effective than to declare such hurtful and ignorant issues! It purely seems the LGBT media usually falls into a similar "adult adult males in dresses" and "perplexed lesbian" stereotypes that everybody else does... and that's undesirable. Trans-human beings decide for a brilliant style of help, and seeing people who could desire to be supportive being as hateful as anyone else... it is totally disheartening. i might replace it via including suggestion cubicles approximately trans-human beings to delight activities (or floats, because of the fact the case may be!), introducing much less stereotypical trans-human beings to television shows/radio shows/magazines and that form of element... Cheers.
