In reply to the discussion: Do you consume alcoholic beverages? [View all]Science Geek
(161 posts)82. Never more than two.
I usually only drink with my evening meal.
Most days, I don't drink at all.
When I do drink, I usually have but one drink.
Occasionally, I'll have two. But, it's becoming a rarity;
perhaps two or three times a month, if that.
I have a weakness for a good margarita on the rocks.
By about age 30 (I'm WAY past that now), I figured
out that I did not enjoy drinking to excess, but before
then I did so occasionally. In the last 20 years, I've
never had more than two drinks in any one day.
On Edit: There's nothing quite like having an immediate
family member drink their way to an early grave, to make
one examine their own alcohol consumption.

This thread had a gender component and I was curious as to how the ratios would match up.
