To shed light on this, I’m reminded of a introspectively
charged quote, “the human mind is like a parachute, it must
first be open in order to function.” Is this a metaphorical
expression easy enough to understand? If not, then
throughout these next few years of vaping escalation, just
sit back and let the Vape Community provide the proper
education, surely then it will be the facts in which you’ll begin
to develop an appreciation. Please don’t judge vaping so
quick, there are too many rumours caught up in the mix. To
those opposing forces, I have no disrespect.
lost if we did not verbally communicate.
Symbolic Interactionism is a theoretical
framework which allows everyone a
chance to see how socializing with other
vapers and remaining united is so crucial
to the survival of our cause to preserve
and ensure the evolution of vaping.
In conclusion, my feelings are that
Sociology is ubiquitous. It can be
anywhere, all the time; basically, it is
indeed everywhere, any time. As noted
earlier, renowned Sociologist Pierre
Bourdieu referred to Sociology as a
“Martial Art” due to it’s power to provide
“self-defense” just as vaping has
grown to be a defense mechanism
against smoking tobacco. Not to
mention, numerous contemporary
Sociologists believe this academic
discipline is more of a “handson”
duty or service to your communal
surroundings primarily through social
activism, civil engagement, & public
service. Other Sociologists feel that
we are merely intellectuals who
articulately identify the social issues and
communicate possible ideas for others
to apply towards resolution. Regardless,
from this indepth analysis of the
Sociology of vaping, I hope you are now
able to see the benefit of this academic
discipline when reflecting on all the

controversy surrounding the vape
community as well as the inner workings
of vaping, affecting our societal
conditions in unprecedented ways.
Therefore, basically, Sociology can be
considered an academic discipline which
will never fail to point out the problems
and give suggestions for improvement
while leaving the “dirty work” for others
whose occupations offer helpful services.
Regardless, I’m sure by now, it’s obvious
that I love Sociology for countless
reasons, while at the same time, I’m
sure it is easy to detect my passionate
stance on vaping. I hope this explanation
about Sociology, assists in describing
exactly why it is absolutely necessary
to implement as a major tool in the war
being waged against vaping and what
it is that these Sociological Theoretical
Perspectives can and will do for the
future of civilized western society,
namely the future of vaping on a global
scale.

before you accuse or assume, focus on
a way to have your strategy in check and
practice how to better reflect. You must
learn respect to earn respect. You cannot
deny how much vaping is in fullaffect,
so who knows what to expect? Stay
tuned in to see what else it is I choose to
sociologically dissect.
