In reply to Sharon.

Sharon, I just cannot imagine you drinking pints! My illusions are shattered 😉

Agreed though… Drink what you like the most rather than what you think you should.

My friend said to me earlier today that in Italy the men would never be seen dead with a pint of frothy warm ale. And in Russis, it is far more blokeish to tuck into endless shots of vodka. So I guess there is a cultural element to it too.

In reply to dave. Hahaha, some good points there Dave... It is basically a body building and development process for men to drink pints of beer, eh?

Being a typically tight northerner, women drinking pints was the norm – Who wouldn’t when a pint was cheaper than two halves!!! I would like to say those days of pint drinking are behind me, however you can’t beat a Magners with ice. Personally I believe you should drink what you enjoy, regardless of the stereotypeing, what’s the point in waking up with a hangover having spent the previous evening forcing down something you don’t actually like.

Brilliant.

Just wondering if it is a rite of passage because women don’t have large enough stomachs to neck a pint in one swig? Balancing two pints in your hands all night builds bigger arms, and nobody wants a muscle-clad woman, because “it’s not feminine”..
cider is a pretty good all-rounder though. It’s ok for women to drink in halves, men in the west country have been on the stuff three meals a day for generations, we have the “dilute with ice” method favoured by magners, and not forgetting the park-bench market, super strength, never-seen-an-apple Trampagne, with the highest possible score on the alcohol:price ratio outside of drinking petrol.

We must be due for the Age of Enlightenment soon?
