Back when I was young...which was only a generation ago, nice girls didn’t drink that much as a routine. I once got drunk enough to be hungover and puking the next day, but not enough to make stupid decisions, or pass out. Once hungover, enough for a lifetime.
Boys were somewhat different. My brother got puking drunk, beat-up drunk, crashed while drunk, stupid while drunk, many times. And bad girls were different.
But now there is no difference. To tell a young woman she has a lot to lose by getting that drunk is to “slut shame,” which is supposed to be a bad thing. And young women in large numbers at party schools and English pubs and American bars tell each other that getting that drunk is normal and fun and the proper social thing to do.
Getting passed out drunk, or seriously impaired drunk is simply a stupid thing to do no matter if you are male or female. A lot of bad things can happen to you (and others) as a result of getting this drunk. People do not make good decisions while drunk.
I think we should do more drunk-shaming of both sexes (or all 57 of them or whatever).
