Just to give a slice of my own personal experiences, since I am in this demographic:
- People want to buy me drinks or serve me drinks constantly. CONSTANTLY. If I have one drink, I SURELY would be insane to not want more. They're free right??!
- People in group gatherings seem to have a lot of fun with women who are drinking moreso than sober. My habit at parties: Mocktails... I order a cranberry juice, and I will specifically ask the bartender to put it in a legit-looking alcoholic glass. I brought a bottle of sparkling grape juice with an actual champagne cork to NYE this year. There's a picture of me pouring this drink into a glass and everyone giving my positive praise for pouring myself 'another'. I make very pretty, alcoholic-looking drinks and sip on them throughout the night. I have noticed when I have nothing in my hand, people are very upset about it for a variety of reasons... most of them stupid ones. If I'm dancing, talking, and drinking... a thing... people calm right tf down.
- People who like to drink like others to drink. Miss Fortune had a very very excellent write-up once upon a time about how it makes people uncomfortable and forces them to examine themselves when they see someone not conforming to the habit of drinking. To me, drinking should be a side-event to a party.. for most: it ignites and creates it. No one wants to be loud, proud, and have fun without first drinking a few. I don't know why, and I'll never understand why.
