Countless studies have shown this has absolutely no affect on smoking or any other area where its applied. Fear based motivation seems like it should work "Well show them horrible pictures of STDs, no one could want to have unprotected sex after that!" but it just doesn't.

I dont think people care about second hand smoke for health reasons, its because that **** stinks and its insidious as ****. Sit next to a smoker and hours later you can still smell that **** on your clothes, and its incredibly unpleasant. You just don't realize it because your are a smoker so you are literally incapable of noticing that smell at that level anymore.
