[reply][reply]drink whatever the fuck you like. to say a certain drink is for a man or woman is extremely sexist.
So is saying that men shouldn’t wear high heels and mini-skirts.[/reply]
Not based on the gender roles set forth within our society, it’s known as a cultural norm. As a sociology guy too you should know this, unless you’re just fuckin’ with him. Then fuck away.

Sociology schmociology.
I’m talkin’ 'bout REAL science here, Son.
If your drink has cherries, whipped cream, or umbrellas in it, or is named anything sexual (“screaming orgasm”, “buttery nipple”, “blow-job”) you’re gonna grow lady parts. That’s a scientific fact.
That being said, DJ pointed out an exception and that is that when you’re on an island, or on a beach (especially if no one knows you) you can drink stuff as fruity as you wish, straight out of a coconut or a pineapple even. And additional umbrellas or extra added fruit doesn’t make it gay, because the fruit actually counts as a meal, and when you’re 6 deep into your pina-coladas you can put the umbrellas on the sand and pretend there are tiny sunbathing tourists under them as you loudly screach Godzilla sounds and slowly stomp the miniature society under your feet.
I’m not sure why this is so hard to grasp for people. Do what you like. It’s your life. Just don’t come crying to me and asking me to buy your tampons because you’ve gotten your first period and weren’t prepared for it.
lame. sounds like you’re trying to be “manly” a little too hard there bud.
Nah. Not “trying” to do anything. I’m just more of a man than you are. You’re the one that gets butthurt that people look at you cockeyed when you order a Zima. I’d tell you to grow a pair, but due to the amount of estrogen you are consuming in those Cosmos and Appletinis, it’s just not biologically possible.

you know you sound like a 7 year old, right? “i’m more of a man than you are!”. lol :P. and btw, i don’t even drink. i just think it’s fucking retarded to say “this drink is for women, this drink is for men”.

Besides “Light” Beers… are other ones more manly than others?
Is Guinness more manly than say… Budweiser or whatever it is you Yanks drink?
I was more making a point about diet beer more so than “manliness” no dude will be caught dead drinking a beer that says “diet” on the can.

Yes, there is “diet” beer, as in low calorie. And Grumpy is right in that you cannot market beer with the word “diet” on it if you want men to actually buy it.
There was a recent (over the last few years) a bit of a throw-down amongst the major brewers to put out the lowest calorie beers possible. I think a “normal” light beer is probably about 120 calories. Then Michelob Ultra put out something with like 80 calories, Miller put out MGD 64 (64 calories) and Budweiser put out Select 55. Yeah, 55 calories.
Select has only 2.6% alcohol, by the way, so unless you’re 45 pounds soaking wet, or Lord-of-Lard, good luck catching a buzz.
