===Social=== Smoking in public was, for a long time, reserved for men, and smoking by women was sometimes associated with [[promiscuity]]; in Japan, during the [[Edo period]], prostitutes and their clients often approached one another under the guise of offering a smoke. The same was true in 19th-century Europe.{{sfn|Gilman|Zhou|2004|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=mM5bYb_uVcwC&pg=PA92 92β99]}} Following the [[American Civil War]], the use of tobacco, primarily in cigars, became associated with [[masculinity]] and power. Modern tobacco use has often been stigmatized; this has spawned quitting associations and antismoking campaigns.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Durkin |first1=Sarah |last2=Brennan |first2=Emily |last3=Wakefield |first3=Melanie |author-link3=Melanie Wakefield |year=2012 |title=Mass media campaigns to promote smoking cessation among adults: an integrative review |url=http://tobaccocontrol.bmj.com/content/tobaccocontrol/21/2/127.full.pdf |journal=Tobacco Control |volume=21 |issue=2 |pages=127β138 |doi=10.1136/tobaccocontrol-2011-050345 |pmid=22345235 |s2cid=3053297|doi-access=free }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |author=Mullin Sandra |year=2011 |title=Global anti-smoking campaigns urgently needed |journal=The Lancet |volume=378 |issue=9795 |pages=970β971 |doi=10.1016/s0140-6736(11)61058-1 |pmid=21741699 |s2cid=7532790}}</ref> [[Bhutan]] is the only country in the world where tobacco sales are illegal.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2005/01/the-first-nonsmoking-nation.html |title=The First Nonsmoking Nation |work=[[Slate (magazine)|Slate.com]] |first=Eric |last=Weiner |date=January 20, 2005 |access-date=October 23, 2019}}</ref> Due to its propensity for causing [[detumescence]] and erectile dysfunction, some studies have described tobacco as an anaphrodisiacal substance.<ref>{{cite journal |pmid=28723353 |year=2015 |last1=Verze |first1=P. |title=The Link Between Cigarette Smoking and Erectile Dysfunction: A Systematic Review |journal=European Urology Focus |volume=1 |issue=1 |pages=39β46 |last2=Margreiter |first2=M. |last3=Esposito |first3=K. |last4=Montorsi |first4=P. |last5=Mulhall |first5=J. |doi=10.1016/j.euf.2015.01.003}}</ref>
