The moral of this story: If the government start banning substances just because they are bad for you where do they stop?
On topic:
In this day and age men are far more oppressed than women are, they are expected to live up to the ideal of the 'Action Man' (Big, macho, goes down the pub with 'the lads' and watches 'footie') and any deviation from this norm or any show of emotion is considered a character flaw or weakness.

I always just thought the government didn't ban tobacco because they make so much money from it. That's obviously still the main reason. Perhaps other dangerous drugs will be legalised someday, though obviously with much bigger warnings on the packets, more expensive etc., based on what you said it's oppression for these substances (cocaine, heroin etc.) to be banned, which it may well be even.
Men? Oppressed? Don't make me laugh, women are
way more oppressed than any male currently is (excluding the son of Bin Laden).
