CHAPTER 1 : WHAT HAPPENED IN MICRONESIA

The only difference is that the level of influence here is much more profound. If in the West, suicide is a type of cruel language, in Micronesia it has become a form of communication with highly expressive content, rich in meaning and nuance, and transmitted by licensers. " has the most convincing power. Rubinstein also wrote about the type of suicide that occurred on Ebeye Island, Micronesia - an island with about 6,000 people. For about 10 years from 1955 to 1965, there were no cases of suicide on the island. In May 1966, an 18-year-old man hanged himself in prison after being arrested for stealing a bicycle. However, this case seems to have had little impact. Then, in November 1966, R - the talented, much-loved descendant of one of the island's wealthiest families - died by suicide. Before that, R often had sex with two women and became the father of two one-month-old children born to both women. R decided to hang himself, bringing with him a despair tinged with the novel. . It wasn't until the funeral that the two women learned of each other's existence and collapsed next to their lover's grave.

Three days after the death of the windy man, another suicide appeared on the island. A 22-year-old man took his own life due to marital problems. This death rings an alarm bell. The number of suicides has reached two a week in a community that has gone one suicide in 12 years. The doctor on the island recorded: After R died, many young people dreamed of him and said that he always urged them to end their lives. Over the next 12 years, the number of suicides rose to 25, most in groups of three or four, occurring several times a week. An anthropologist, visiting the island in 1975 , recorded: Some victims of suicides and some young men who tried to commit suicide in the nearby period all testified that they saw a boat carrying all the victims of suicides. happened before was circling around the deadly island, on the boat came voices inviting these potential victims to join. On and on, this story was embellished by many people with the appearance of R. Below is the suicide letter of M., a high school student who dated two girls at the same time: one girl. at boarding school and a girl living on the island of Eybe and when the first girlfriend comes home to visit, M. is forced to deal with both – at which point, according to the Eybe subculture, problems arise. became an excuse to allow M. to end his own life. Please send my best wishes to M. and C. (names of the two girls). How happy I was to have you both by my side. That was all he had to say, because the context of M.'s actions was caused entirely by the movement" of suicide following R. on the island of Eybe. Here, R plays the role of Promoter, Salesman, someone whose experience overrides what others experience when following him. The power of the situation and the characteristics of R.'s death combined to create the power to become an example for younger generations to follow many years after his death.

Does the problem of smoking among teenagers follow the same logic? With the purpose of finding out more closely the reasons why children smoke, I distributed surveys to about 200 to 400 people, asking them to describe what happened the first time they started smoking. This is not a scientific study. The sample of subjects is also not representative of American youth. Most of them are about to turn 30, and live in big cities. However, the answers are interesting and remarkable, mainly because of their degree of similarity. According to the results, it seems that smoking can awaken a specific type of memory from people's childhood - a vivid, accurate and emotional memory. Someone recalls how she used to love opening her grandmother's purse, a purse in which she would encounter the pleasant faint smell of cheap Winston cigarettes, the smell of old leather mixed with the smell of lipstick. lips and cinnamon gum. Another person remembers sitting in a Chrysler car, enjoying the wonderful mixture of sulfur and tobacco wafting from the cockpit window, straight into the nose." Most people associate smoking with the same thing: sophistication. This is true even for those who hate cigarettes, who now believe that smoking is a bad and dangerous habit. Like the language of the suicide movement, the language of smoking seems remarkably consistent. Here are two questions on the survey, both of which describe childhood memories:

My mother smokes, even though she hates it herself - I hate the smell of cigarette smoke. Her mother's fingers were long and slender, her lips were full and soft, always bright in lipstick color. And every time she smoked, she looked so charming and careless that there was no doubt that I would smoke at some point. Mom is someone who doesn't have any courage. She often says: creating your own scent, having your own way of thinking, is daring to reveal that weakness in yourself.

My best friend Susan is of Irish and English descent. Unlike my parents, Susan's parents are young, tolerant and very liberal. Before every evening, they often drink cocktails together. Susan's father, Mr. Sullivan has a beard and often wears turtlenecks, while Mr. Sullivan, the girl, always wears thin sandals and wears simple clothes that are usually black to match his jet black hair. His eyes were covered in heavy makeup, his skin was slightly sunburned, and he always, almost always, waved a cigarette in his carefully painted hands that looked as if it could break in half.

This is the lingua franca of smoking. It is as rich and expressive as the common language of suicides. In this pandemic, there also exist individuals who play the role of Distributors, Salesmen, and licensors. Respondents to my surveys consistently describe the specific individual who introduced them to tobacco in exactly the same way.

When I was about 9 or 10 years old, my parents hired an English maid, Maggie. She came to stay with my family for a summer day. Maggie is probably only around 20. She is very sexy and always wears a Bikini at Campells swimming pool. So, Maggie is famous with dozens of simple guys around her. Some people also say that the top piece of swimsuit always falls off when Maggie dives into the water. Mr. Carpenter always dives and waits whenever Maggie jumps down. Maggie often smoked and I often begged her to let me smoke with her.

The first guy I knew with three-pointed hair who smoked was Billy G. We'd been together since 5th grade, when our differences began to form in our small suburban NJ town. Billy is incredibly sophisticated. He was also the first boy who knew how to date girls, smoke cigarettes, do drugs, drink strong alcohol and listen to exciting music. I even remember when the two boys sat on Billy's sister's bed upstairs, we together separated the poppy seeds from the pipe right on the cover of the Grateful Dead album - Billy's parents were divorced (this is another another first for Billy), but Billy's mother was never home... The allure of cigarettes for me lies in its evilness, the feeling of being an adult it brings, and the way it How great are our complications?

The first girl I remember smoking was Pam P. I met Pam when we were in 10th grade. We took the bus to school together from Great Neck, LI. I remember thinking that she was her. was the ultimate connoisseur because Pam lived in an apartment (There weren't many apartments in Great Neck at that time). Pam seemed a lot older than our 15 years. She and I often sit in the back of the car and blow smoke rings out the window. She taught me how to inhale, how to tie a men's shirt around the waist to make it look stylish and stylish, and how to apply lipstick. Pam has a leather shirt. Her father is rarely home.

In fact, there is a lot of evidence to support the idea that heavy smokers all have similar personality traits. Hans Eysenck, a very famous British psychologist, argued that serious smokers could be separated from non-smokers by simple personality traits. According to him, veteran members of the elite group are extroverts, the type of person:

Very sociable, likes to party, has many friends, and always has the need to talk to people... He craves excitement, likes to take chances, acts impulsively and often an impulsive individual… He likes to move and move, tends to be aggressive and gets angry easily; His emotions are not subject to any strict restraint, and he is not always a person who can be trusted.

Based on countless studies conducted since Eysenck's groundbreaking work, a comprehensive picture of the smoking movement has gradually emerged. Accordingly, heavy smokers have more sexual desire than non-smokers. They are people who develop sexual instincts early and often have greater sexual needs, as well as stronger attraction to people of the opposite sex. For example, at age 19, only 5% of non-smoking white female students have ever had sex, but this rate among white female students who smoke is up to 55%. And according to Eysenck, statistics from male students also show similar results. But men rank much higher on psychologists' antisocial lists: their levels of misbehavior tend to be higher, they are more rebellious and defiant. than. They often make instant decisions and are more likely to face danger. A household with an average smoker consumes 73% more coffee and two to three times more beer than a household with no smoking members. What's interesting is that smokers seem to be more honest than non-smokers when talking about themselves. As David Krogh describes in his thesis Smoking:Atifical Passion. (false delusion), psychologists conducted what they called a lie test, to which statements that were obviously irrefutable were added—for example, such as the sentence I don't always tell the truth, or the sentence: Sometimes I am cold to my spouse.-and if the test taker repeatedly denies the content of the sentences This statement proves that they are dishonest people. When taking these types of tests, smokers are much more honest. Krogh writes: There is a theory that a lack of respect combined with an excess of stubbornness causes these people to become quite indifferent to what others think of them.

Of course, this way of thinking cannot apply to all smokers. But when it comes to making general, broad predictions about smoking behavior, the level of certainty is quite high, and the more an individual smokes, the higher the likelihood of matching the above description. According to Krogh: In the spirit of science, I will invite readers to demonstrate (the personality relationship in people who smoke) by performing the following test: Schedule a trip to an entertainment venue. , entertainment on one side is an actor, a rock singer, a hairdresser and on the other side is the gathering of a construction engineer, an electrician or a computer programming expert, then the Observe how much people smoke there. If your test is similar to mine, the difference will be dramatic.

Below are also some of the answers to my investigation. Let's see if there is an extrovert personality type that is more evident than this!

When I was a kid, he was the greatest person around me who smoked. He is a very great man, a hero when using tricks. He immigrated to Poland when he was just a boy, and worked as a glazier for most of his life. My mother often likes to tell the story of when she first sat down to dinner with him, she thought, at any moment he could rip off the tablecloth without causing any disturbance on the table. Just to help everyone feel happy and comfortable.

I think people have overlooked the important role that smokers' personalities play. If you
