when you think about how many people and how many times those people drink and drive.....it makes it seem safe...most of the time, like 99% nothing happens when drinkng and driving, so 99% of the time taking AS you are fine....i like those odds...

I think most of you are missing the point. In this text it is stating the "perceived harmfulness", not how harmful it actually is. People obviously believe the hype about steroids being dangerous and it shows in this chart. I think the point of the chart is also to show the difference between what a teen thinks is harmful and what their parents think.
What bugs me about it is smoking. What do these people think? Most people who smoke all their lives die from some type of related cancer. Yet it is the second lowest on the chart. Where are these people's brains? It's like seeing a guy workout hard at a gym and then go outside for a smoke. He obviously works out to impress the girls and doesn't care about his health.

I work out and then go out and have a smoke afterwards, that doesn't mean that i don't care about my health. I enjoy smoking and am prepared to take the risks. It is a simple matter of whether or not u are willing to smoke. It has nothing to do with working out to impress women. That is a narrow minded attitude.

SMOKERS ARE PEOPLE TOO!!!!!!

PEACE!

I never met anyone that really "enjoyed" smoking atleast not after the buzz wore off and they are addicted. What a stupid perception, roids don't kill you unless you are stupid about it, but smoking fills your lungs with scar tissue and fluid so you end up drowning in your own liquid, sick!

Like ontariowrestler said, "this is percived harmfullness". The general public are very ignorant about AS and it's effects/side effects. They don't know any better so they just belive anything they hear and all the hype that the media, t.v., or the movies can dish out. But yes, it would be fun to be in the class when you go over that chart. I think a lot of people would get a real eye-opener when you start debating with factual info. & research. Have fun! ):

This is the perfect example of the way people are in America... they react instead of think! How many people do you know that actually research what they are debating about or believe? Most of us just rely on the media to spoon feed us our information. And that information is nothing more than colorful charts, and stories that evoke emotions, instead of real thoughts.

Thats amazing & its pathetic that people are so ignorant, but I'm really not surprised by the numbers. I doubt most of you were surprised either. The ignorant masses put AS on equal terms with cocaine & other degenerate shit. I dont drink (my liver has enough shit to do), dont smoke & I've never done drugs, but I have no problem with using AS in a safe, responsible manner. People need to get a fucking clue.

Well, if I debate this shit when we get to this chart, I look like a roidhead, but if I dont, I have to sit there and listen to the FUCKING CRAP that the prof and the students will be saying like..."Steroids score the highest risk, that makes sense since you have to inject with a needle it must be really dangerous!" I have to know how to legitimately debate this without looking like I use them.

How the hell can sniffing glue be as bad is steroids? That shit should be a 6 on that scale. Go sniff glue for a year and then stop. Then go take juice for a year and you tell me what is worse. Tell your teacher its an idependant study and when ya can't spell your name cause of the glue sue his ass.
