Why are some alcoholic drinks given sex names?

[Deja Q]

'Screaming Orgasm'
'Sex on the beach'
'blow job'
'hard dick' (if you do not believe me)

and so on?

I surely couldn't go into a bar, especially a gay bar, and ask for any of those above - especially the "h. d." one! :scared:

Good grief, I can't even think of any of these without getting embarrassed. Double entendres can be fun, but these are too much IMHO.

1. because they're usually drunk

by young people, mostly girls, who think the combination of alcohol and sexual innuendo is endlessly funny.

2. It's almost always women who order these drinks, in my experience.

They don't seem to be as "inhibited" as us ;)

3. Isn't slippery nipple a drink?

or something to that effect...I don't know because I stick to beer and hard liquor! Dammit!

5. One of my favorite drinks in college

was a buttery nipple. It was Butterscotch Schnapps and something else, can't remember.

My GOD it was a good drinking. Sip it, slam it, didn't matter, just GOOD.

6. That sounds like that would give me...

a banging hangover! I can't drink anything that is too sweet

4. I don't know, but I know I like a Sloe Screw ;)

:evilgrin:

(That's a screwdriver made with sloe gin, for those of you with dirty, dirty minds. :D )
