$2.7M Federal Study: Why Do Lesbians Have Higher 'Risk for Hazardous Drinking'?

Then I should rephrase my question. Vette, just because you can't manage to drink a glass of wine without going out of control, why should the rest of us consider it a crutch as we enjoy the wonderful taste of Gods gift of grape?

And I still don't know what the preferred lesbian drink is.
 
Why Do Lesbians Have Higher "Risk for Hazardous Drinking"?

Because they don't know dick?


It was just a thought....

I was never an alcoholic, but I did drink. Just got tired of the routine and the social crowd that went with it. Walked away from in 1979 without a single regret.

It is OK for you to admit the truth. I do not consider alcoholism a weakness, I consider it a disease. I do not hold alcoholism against anyone who is making an attempt to treat their disease.
 
I just told you the truth. Tough shit if that upsets your narrative.

You just used, "the routine" as concerns alcohol - right there a couple posts above this one. So then you're one of those "I'm better than you because I Stopped Drinking" types. Anyone who takes a drink - must be weak because you defeated the demon drink. At the least, you've posted so many times to that effect that your fear or hatred of drink certainly makes you appear a reformed sot.

And that's just fact, whatever truths hold so dear.

Ice water with a slice of lemon.

Hot Tea at 4:30 PM (sometimes with ginger added).

Coffee at 5:30 AM (with a bit of cream)

That's it - you owe me $2.7 million. Cash please.
 
What I meant by routine was the routine in that social circle, beach parties, card games, pool tournaments, it all got old, including the drinking that went with it. I neither feared or hated drinking. I have seen it destroy people, I just wasn't one of them. Same thing with smoking, walked away cold from that too. It was more about maintaining good health and setting a good example for my small sons at the time.

That fails to explain why you then accuse people who take a drink of "having a crutch" or call Sean an alcoholic because he enjoys a friday night cup.

If you simply walked away and it has no effect on you - why the angst?
 
For the record, I just think it's a waste of and money to do these time surveys on particular group of people. I suspect the reasons for alcoholism, or any type substance addiction, are all the same beneath the surface.

Also, for the record, I don't think it's a good idea for a drunk heterosexual male to broach the subject to a group of drunk, man-hating lesbians in a public bar. Especially when he's doing it alone on a fool's mission of converting them to heterosexualism....just saying.

Hazardous drinking a public health issue. Identifying groups at risk such as can lead to more effective and cost-effective prevention and treatment strategies that can be used by both private and public sector agencies.

If the NIH was researching aspects of hazardous drinking involving military veterans would you object the same way?
