College Drinking: Guys Versus Girls

article image placeholderUploaded by @katiecal
You're so drunk. But when a girl does something like that, it's like, Whoa, you need to handle your alcohol. You're being messy. You're being trashy. Like, what are you doing? And I don't know

And guys, it's like, oh, he was so funny. He was saying crazy stuff. So I think that's just an interesting gendered way to talk about men and women handling alcohol. So I'd love to hear other people's opinions on that

When a woman drinks, it's like, oh, that's dangerous. She shouldn't do that. But if a guy drinks, it's like, whatever, it's fine. So I don't know, it just kind of bothers me a little bit that that's how our kind of society works at this point. Yeah, that was a good point about whoever hosts the party. That definitely is true. But, yeah, there's just a lot of different layers to this

If they're causing some sort of destruction in my house, that's going to be on me and the rest of my roommates who live there. So I don't really want them there. And also I don't think other people who are at that party want to deal with somebody who's being a little bit too much if they're being drunk. I mean, of course if they are really drunk and they need help, like if they're puking, somebody should be there to help them

It's hard, but I don't know. I think it's kind of your time to experiment with that almost. But also, if it happens a couple of times, you should learn in your brain, like when to stop, I guess. But I don't know. It's definitely a hard topic to really get under control

It's interesting because I would say my immediate friend group is not like that. Like everyone really knows how to handle their alcohol and knows how to handle themselves. But I would say in regards to like my sorority, we have that issue quite frequently Winley, especially with the younger classmen for sure, especially going out, not being able to handle their alcohol. And we've actually had some girls get banned from France because of some of the actions that they have done when they are drunk

So, yeah, I see the double standard you're talking about. But in my eyes, I think just in general, it's like a College problem. I think alcohol in College is a huge problem. Like, Ben, shrinking is so normalized and just blacking out in general. And people saying, oh, I'm going to go blackout tonight, just like slang term. I don't know. I don't know why it's so normalized, especially when I go to school
