About 37.1 percent of women in Jiangsu province suffer from second-hand smoke. In Nanjing, that number reached as high as 57.6 percent, dsqq.cn reported on Jan 4.

They usually have to bear others smoking at home and work. On the other hand, a larger group of women smokers has emerged, because more and more tobacco companies set their aim at young women by promoting advertisements indicating liberty and losing weight.
