Why do Romance Heroines Smoke Cigarettes?

[Kate18]

Reading novels from the library on my computer, "e-books."

In these tense moments, why do they smoke cigarettes? 

Ach! Not good role models. 

I have moments when, as I read this novel, I want a smoke. 

CRAZY. I'm so over smoking, but I understand the heroine's reaching for a cigarette. 

I suppose that triggers will never end. 

I stand steadfast. NOPE

Its funny how that would have been such a non issue if we were still smoking huh?! I find myself noticing smoking in any movie I watch and then looking at the year it was made thinking maybe it was made before everything we know now about smoking.....
