Drinking is a popular past-time that has continued to gain appeal over the generations. It is essentially the consummation of alcohol such as beers, wines, and spirits. Each style of alcohol has different levels of positive and negative effects on the body, some are stronger then others. They inhibit motor action, and cause the conscious mind to become less alert or slow. Too much drinking can result in behaviour that is unwanted, that is dangerous, that is lethal, and is disaster on spike.

Despite the negative effects that can arise in drinking, many people of all cultures gather in order to partake in the activity which suites leisure times, and any time in-between work and play.

So who drinks more men or women? That is a question that is debatable, there are short and long term issues which will sway the vote. Generally its best to divide the genders in order to get an overview of how much the male or female drink, and the reasons why.

Male:

Males are the type who can hold more liquor. They have bodies which are capable to work even under the spell of alcohol over-dose. They generally consider it to be a show of strength. Like always, they practice the task until they get good at it. It's like winning a medal when a person can down a lot of alcohol at one time, whereas other will simply sip of small amounts on what they have. The victor to a binge drink competition gets praise and sometimes even loot to spill over as those hops and spirits sits on the bottom of the stomach. This is considered an important part of social initiation.

So on a general term it might be said that the male drinks the most alcohol when they are in the mood for some drink. However saying that they generally drink at social functions, or when watching the sports on the weekend. This means that they save their binges for special occasions.

Female:

Females are the social drinker who is supposed to stop at two and a half cups, before they are raised to the risk of overdoing it. Most women actually stay within their limits, but some break out in order to be as big as the boys who are parading around with litres inside of their bellies, or even a little bigger. The females who loose it, really loose it. They walk around until they begin to trip and pass-out. This is very bad image for the female drinker, however it is done more for show in order to make themselves stand out.

However not so many women take it to the limits. They often drink within their cups, however they do it more frequently. Reasons why they do it are because they get more hungry and need the alcohol to subside their hunger pangs or to give their bodies energy and fill; or they need the drink more then food in order to keep their weight down, and to ensure they don't feel like they are starving themselves by watching their weight; or because they are manic depressive and need something to fill their insides in order to make their bodies respond. These are other reasons why women drink. This makes the woman a more continuous drinker, as they do it alone more often as well as in public.

This is why women is the more avid drinker.
