If I were looking, I'd list myself as a smoker.

Somebody that is interested in you and thinks you are a smoker isn't going to be turned off because you vape.

Somebody that is interested that you told you don't smoke may very well be turned off because you vape.

If I'm advertising on a dating site, it is because I am interested in meeting somebody, not because I want to make some sort of pro-vaping political statement. Being honest (In THEIR eyes) is kinda important.

I could claim I weigh 120 pounds, too- and it would be true- If I were on the moon.

And telling people you smoke when don't smoke is a great way to scare off a huge number of potential dates.

If I told someone I did not smoke, and they found out that I vaped and therefore disagreed...
And if after I explained it to them they still disagreed and still felt I smoked...

Well they are either too close-minded or too stupid for me to ever date.

And if they have an issue with me using nicotine...
--They damn well better not be drinking any coffee
--And I wouldn't date someone that judgmental anyway

Would I list non smoker before or after the 10" part cause if I can pull that off its a moot point:D ...

Agreed.. LOL Since 99.99% of all internet dating sight profiles are 75% self aggrandizement and 25% accurate, it probably doesn't matter. (Show me a profile photo on an internet dating site that isn't 20+ years old) .;-)~

As DC2 said, listing yourself as a smoker would scare off potential dates, however, smokers would more likely accept vaping as a lifestyle (if that is not a category to check) than non smokers. So if vaping wasn't a choice, I would have to go with smoker.
