am i at risk smoking cigars and pipe tobacco?I am 16 years old, and i smoke cigars and pipe tobacco. I don't smoke it on a daily basis, but in the past 2 weeks i have had MAYBE 3 quarters of an ounce of pipe tobacco between MANY friends and probably 4 or 5 cigars between friends. I know its not a healthy habit to be into at my age, but it is kind of a social thing, and i would even make a stretch to say that cigar smoking is classy, opposed to cigarettes. The reason why i ask if i am at risk is because cancer is a number 1 killer around the world. I could stop cold turkey, but i don't just because its fun, and they taste good. What is the equivalent of cigars to cigarettes? What is the equivalent of pipe tobacco to cigarettes? I do not inhale the cigars or pipe tobacco always, most of the time i just exhale and enjoy the aroma from the exhaled smoke. So there is minimal smoke in my lungs, and i don't smoke them that much. So can i please have an EDUCATED answer on the risks of smoking cigars and pipe tobacco? Thanks.
another reason why i don't stop smoking is because i have prior information that smoking cigars isn't half as bad as cigarettes, but i am trying to find out if this information is true, or to what extent that it may be true.

Keep smoking a pipe, its a great relaxing hobby, and there is information available on www.pipes.org on the health effects of smoking a pipe. Cigars have the same health risks as smoking a pipe.

What Jacob said, but I disagree with the pipe - I'm a cigar man who occasionally enjoys a bowl, lol!!!
