Matt Lauer interviewed two ladies, one a doctor and the other works for Marie Claire, about an article in the October issue of Marie Claire by Yael Kohen. The interviewees explained that highly functional women are lighting up to unwind from a long day at work and not having to endure any hangover the next day.

Matt kept pushing, what about the negative aspects, and the ladies explained that there really wasn't much negative except the illegality. They did a good job dispelling the stereotypes, and presented the topic entirely from a positive point of view.

    • as a matter a fact these two are right about the smoking kills thing, because inhaling carcinogens period even by cannabis is still harmful. One thing they haven't thought of yet is the fact that "vaporizers" filter out almost if not all of the harmful tobacco, and carcinogens, not only that but bongs also filter out a lot of harmful things. there are various way of ingesting cannabis such as eating and supplementation, but cannabis pills don't really work... well not like eating or inhaling, the effects aren't the same, also you can overdose on the pills because its chemically altered, but smoking's never had a single overdose case in its over 3000 year history of usage by humans.

    • I love this article. What is the difference between drinking a glass of wine and smoking a "j" after a hard work day? Oh I know, smoking a "j" doesn't destroy your liver.

    • we need more people like these two lovely young ladies, who present their selves in a confident independent and intelligent manor dispersing with all the stereo types of pot heads being slow dimwitted and lazy. cannabis users are smart dignified individuals who's work and pay taxes just like the parson who wants to drink a shot to unwind or smoke a "cigg" to lighten the mood, except we aren't becoming violent wife beaters or cancer patients.

      honestly people, those who are for legalization should become more educated in this subject so that we can completely leave behind all stereo types and prove myths to be false and show facts to be completely opposite to the previous assumptions and fabricated lies. and we should educate our fellow neighbors and community residents about the facts on marijuana both positive and negative so that the individual can make their own education opinion and choice on the matter, instead of just being brain washed by the opposition using scare tactics. We are above that and we need to show it.

      educate yourself and then educate your neighbor, its the key to ending all this.

    • The Jamaicans often smoke a spliff to help them accomodate the weakening effect of working out in so much direct Sunlight. It is radiation after all, and any form of radiation will affect the heat regulation of the human body. They use formen who don't smoke to supervise them so they don't slack off and take too many breaks. And these people don't smoke on the job. They stay in the shade if it's available. As the point's been made, you have to stay active to focus your conscious mind on some activity. Otherwise, you should inhale it if your nearing ready to go to sleep so as not to waste time. Cannabis is one of the sedative/anesthetic/hypnotic class of substances. If you drink alchohol, you'll pass out but not sleep, and wake up with a hangover because your body was never shut down to eliminate the waste products, which is why you absolutely need to sleep. In fact, it will be even busier metabolizing the alchohol. But Cannabis is metabolized efforlessly because it's not a toxin, and doesn't cause the liver problems. If you smoke too much you will get narcoleptic sleep and wake up hungover anyway. Everything in moderation.
      Before Cannabis Prohibition it was so commonplace that it was de facto legal (as small quantities up to 5 grams of ganja/hashish or growing up to 3 plants) is currently in the U.K.of the Netherlands. It never had to legalized because it was never criminalized in the first place. After many States have decriminalized it, the
      paranoia mindset of intimidation fades.Without that overpowering fear emotion to extinguish reason, the normalacy of using common sense dispells the lies
      and superstitions. Without lies and superstitions,the T
      totalers(totalitarians) can't maintain brainwashing to keep people inexperienced. The average inhaler isn't an axe murderer maniac (which the Hearst newspaper propaganda of the 1930s editorialized on the front page with to push the Dupont nylon rope products which were angling for Defense contracts at the time.)
      Hemp was used as anchor rope on the Brittish navy shiips during American colonial times. The Crown forced farmers to grow hemp for next to nothing which is why they emigrated to the New World, ironicly.)

    • The only true negality of cannabis is habit. If someone smokes weed constantly for long periods of time with few breaks to sober up, they lose touch on reality. Especially if it's a non-active smoker, meaning they smoke and just watch t.v. or sit and "space out". This will turn your brain into mush. A great example would be the two girls in the article, who smoke recreationally to relax from the work day. They do not get high all day, only after work.

      If you smoke weed in moderation though and stay active on the high, like doing sports or a hobby, than there are no negalities. This should be publicly known, but instead the government just labels any form of cannabis use as harmful and addictive (NOT TRUE)
