what does the misconceptions go up in
smoke welcome to watchmojo.com saman
we’re counting down the top five myths
about weed before we begin we publish
new videos every day
so be sure to subscribe for more great
content we’ve all heard the propaganda
but how much of it actually holds up to
scrutiny alright number five pop makes
people apathetic yeah help yourself
don’t mind if I do
the lazy stoner is a popular archetype
but you shouldn’t confuse correlation
with causality which came first the pot
or the apathy with its karmic effects
marwan has been widely embraced by
slacker society the problem however is
that is resulted in unflattering
stereotypes about weed smokers in
general but considering the fact that
according to the World Health
Organization an estimated one hundred
forty seven million people consume
marijuana globally including sixteen
point two percent of all Americans this
reputation can’t be applied universally
long term heavy marijuana use can affect
motivation but realistically responsible
recreational use isn’t going to make you
a sloth
number four weed and sex don’t mix maybe
this stems from the aforementioned
apathy myth but people have long warned
that marijuana negatively impacts sexual
performance
[Music]
let’s get the disappointing truths out
the way prolonged marijuana use among
males who smoked daily has shown an
increased risk of erectile dysfunction
it can also significantly lower sperm
count so food for fall but neither of
these considerations lends any credence
to the belief that being stoned during
intercourse takes away from the
experience in fact some studies suggest
that it results in increased sexual
stamina in men decreased stress and
heightened sensitivity in men and women
and depending on who you ask
more intense orgasms for both partners
we can climax number three synthetic
marijuana sunders him in global status
means it’s safe need another argument
for legalizing marijuana how about the
fact that it will effectively kill
synthetic marijuana which unlike the
real stuff has proven to be directly
dangerous unfortunately as a society we
tend to put blind faith in the legal
system to protect us operating under the
assumption that illegal substances are
bad and by extension legal substances
are safe it’s like God’s vagina while
quite a few countries have banned it or
at least put it on their list of drugs
of concern there are still quite a few
places where it’s either legal or at
least unregulated the problem is it
takes time for a newly developed
chemical to find its way on the list of
contraband substances and until it does
it falls into a legal gray area
synthetic cannabinoids bond with THC
receptors to give a similar high but
these various chemical cocktails have
resulted in hospitalization and death
number two it kills brain cells by
screaming right now no part makes you
dumb it’s arguably one of the most
common arguments given against the drug
after a decades-long debate on the
subject a number of studies have been
released since 2010 this seems to
collectively put a definitive nail in
the coffin of the arguments they’ve all
concluded that no marijuana does not
kill brain cells in fact they found that
marijuana may actually be of benefit
brain health according to findings
published in Euro Chemistry
international in 2013 marijuana may
stimulate the growth of new brain cells
that are already forming a 2012 study
found that it may also help to combat
stress-related disorders such as PTSD
number one it’s a gateway drug
time-wise kind of marijuana
best part is yes the piece of marijuana
propaganda that’s been peddled to
children and parents alike for
generations preying on fears of
degeneracy and debilitating dependency
well pop might be a gateway drug but not
in that way people who consume harder
drugs are likely to have smoked
marijuana first but again it’s a case of
causation this is correlation maybe I’ll
have long marijuana don’t waste with
acid no thank you
most cannabis users never move on to
other substances if anything marijuana
is illegal status forces users into a
criminal environment where more severe
drug use is normalized
kalimera a 2014 National Institute on
Drug Abuse study show that while there
are more students smoking marijuana part
drug use has declined overall so so much
for the Gateway theory
