    Bad :(

    Smoking is disgusting, and women smoking automatically gives them a bad name..
    Why would anybody do that to themselves anyway? It smells bad, the yellow teeth, fingernail and fingertips are not attractive, and the breath is beyond eekh lol

    I’m sorry, I’m sounding like such a teacher lol

      Smoking is bad for both men and women! Its just our society that gives a woman a bad name when she smokes! But when you look at it, its disgusting and not so smart to smoke, and I mean for BOTH genders! And yes, you sounded like one LOL ;-)

    What does the fine font say?

      Although they have a designated room for smoking, they do not want to be held responsible! So its like smoking is bad for you and we care… blah blah blah

    With the vision-proof exterior, it looks like whoever’s idea it was knows of the cultural stigma of women smokers but it’s not going to protect its occupants.

    It’s really a 4 x 4 box that provides bored gossipers with an easy source of ‘flana al flan smokes? OMG’-style gossip.

    Doubt you’re going to see any locals in that status death-trap.

    I don’t know why people waste their time, money and energy on things that ruin their health (as well as others) just to temporarily feel good. They’re fooling themselves :/

    I really think that it can be accepted nowadays. with all the tred to the “equality” and so. Anyhow, I’m against smoking cigarrets for both genders. However, it’s not like sheesha. :P

    I believe that sheesha (either for a man or a woman) is an activity/socializing not a habit. so yeah I think it is ok for a woman to smoke sheesha but it depends on (where). if they have it in a decent cafe or a lebanese resturant then it’s very fine by me.

    Btw, if you took that pic. we work at the same building. =)

    Does that mean the days of women smoking in the toilets are over .

    After getting most of our young people and teenagers addicted to smoking ,the big market for cigarette companies is the middle east and of that segment the women . Meantime whoever in charge of health is either asleep or bribed to stay asleep

    Women are always asking for equal opportunities and now they have their own smoking room :)
    But seriously smoking is a disgusting habit and its a turn off seeing a beautiful lady with yellow teeth and stinky breath

    I am 100% against smoking but if they want to limit smoking in one place i think its good that they have a place for women…… because ive seen these small places in the airport their are tiny which is gonna be uncomfortable for women……….. lets be realistic there are women who smoke in public maybe not as much as men but there is a handful and in order to implement the rules the smoking room is a better idea than to to increase second hand smoking………

    so……. i think it is good so that the toilets will be smoke free

    Interesting comments! And yes smoking is bad for both :)

    Personally… I find it disgusting.
    However its a personal choice. If a person wants to ruin their health its their call as long as they don’t smoke around me. So a women’s smoking area is a good idea ;)

      I have been passing by this smoking room for the past month and been seeing a lady that smokes in front of it everyday. The way she smokes and lights her cigarettes look %100 manly :P

      It’s her personal choice to smoke or not, but at least she needs to stay feminine while she does it in public.

    lol i wasnt commenting on what you meant… i just got pissed off at the idea of smoking that this society has… its not that big of a deal if a guy smokes.. but it is if a girl does :P
    Anyhow i just think smokers should chew tobbaco cuz that way they only affect themselves as opposed to people taking in the second hand smoke :D
