i love beer
>>43029056switch to white claw
>>43029056Foids prefer wine on average
>>43029056Any favorite brands or styles?
>>43029056It's malebrained to drink alcohol every day. Liking beer is fine, especially if you're from one of the big beer countries
>>43029056One of the prettiest cis girls I know is a craft beer snob
>>43029140belgian beers, ales. im broke atm so drinking a lot of shit lager.
>>43029155Nice. I’ve always liked leffe as far as that kind of thing goes. I generally prefer pilsners though
it is obviously malebrained to drink beer every day. but is it malebrained to drink vodka every day?
>>43029056>consuming alcohol>fast tracking rapid aging of your body, let alone damaging your chances at passingishygddt>imagine also going outside without covering up or applying sunscreen and letting your skin degrade rapidlyc’mon people be better than this
>>43029196even more malebrained
>>43029209a little bit of alcohol occasionally is nice. every day is way too much though
>>43029231Agreed. I switched from drinking a few times a week to only at social events, and feel much better for it
>>43029211noo but it's like the cheapest alcohol that tastes decent and i need to get drunk
>>43029231>>43029261It’s literal poison for your body. How is it that none of you can find literally anything else to consume that’s not as destructive? Or not build relationships hinging on the consumption of something abhorrent to the longevity of the human body?>but it’s just once in awhilethat shit adds up and the laziest of you fail to fathom the ramifications of said decisions until it’s too late.
>>43029318Ah yes, but you’re overlooking the fact that it tastes good and I like how it makes me feel
>>43029345As long as you don’t give a shit about suffering the consequences in your later years, or hamstringing your own progress in transitioning, then do what you want with your body.
>>43029318It's true that alcohol isnt cool anymore but that's only because every few years people like you switch up which common drug to get outraged over, and normalize the other ones.
>>43029406Oh, I’m not trans. I was just curious about people’s take on whether beer is a boy or a girl.
>>43029426>normalize other onesthey should be discouraged and discontinued. Fact of the matter is people use them due to the hell they’re enduring and the lack of community/familial support (compounded by the corporations). Cannabis is bad (and has studies now showing developing brains being stunted), smoking is bad, vaping is bad, drinking is bad, yes they’re all bad.
>>43029462Next you’re going to say specialty coffee and anal sex are bad, then there’ll be nothing left to enjoy in life
>>43029493coffee’s negative effects are far more negligible in comparison to the rest of the drugs we’ve been mentioning, it’s why there isn’t a restriction of age to consume it nor is it a scheduled drug.>anal sexunironically, I’m willing to bet there’ll be a study in the future linking to anal sex and increased risk of cancer involving the colon and areas involving the anus.
coffee is good for you
>>43029293alcoholism is malebrained. stop drinking regularly>>43029318it's unhealthy, but most fun things are. a burger every day would be hell on your arteries, but occasionally its fine and makes life more fun. same for most substances people use and abuse
>>43029551Okay, so I can keep making pour overs and blowing other dudes. Can I do anything else pleasurable, or is that it now? You gotta give me something after everything you took away :\
>>43029631>burgerthis is another point to bring up: fast food and processed foods are extremely unhealthy and carcinogenic as well. We should be moving to an almost entirely vegetarian diet. Why the fuck do we allow Big Milk and Big Bacon to influence and dominate our way of life? Technology has come a long way in making meat-alternatives actually tasting similar to meat. Also reduce sugar from your diets too!>>43029657>can you give me something else?Millions of other outlets in life you can explore and do. Hundreds of cuisines from different cultures to get lost in. Hobbies ranging from botany, skydiving, playing musical instruments, backpacking, researching history, developing new engineering breakthroughs, writing and reading stories, embracing cinematography, wood working, clay modeling, helping the poor and homeless, becoming a chef. There’s so many things in life you can do that doesn’t need to be just sucking dick or being stuck on your nightmare rectangle you sometimes use as a phone.
>>43029551>I’m willing to bet there’ll be a study in the future linking to anal sex and increased risk of cancer involving the colon and areas involving the anusand even if it does, I will continue doing it. Your setting yourself up for a joyless time optimising your life for a vague concept of health, rather than enjoyment
>>43029718>im gonna still smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol daily and never exercise because life’s more fun for me that wayyeah you sound exactly like those before you. I can’t help you if you lack the creativity to think of literally anything else to spend your life on other than consuming and being a product for others.
>>43029056i drink beer because its cheap and ive got more pressure on me than i can handle sober
>>43029056misato drinking beer is cool because she remains functional at her job. sadly i don’t have a job so drinking would just be pathetic and gross
>>43029709People like you are so insufferable. Never leave your house please, the sun is harmful and will give you cancer and the roads have cars that might run you over. Only scroll tiktok and sext people on discord your entire life, never fuck, never connect with or kiss people. you wouldn't want to get herpes or break a bone. live your healthiest life!
>>43029709processed meats, sure. but milk? milk is amazing
>>43029709> There’s so many things in life you can do that doesn’t need to be just sucking dick or being stuck on your nightmare rectangle you sometimes use as a phone.Oh well sure, I am a polymath whose life is a rich tapestry of friends, travel and wide ranging interests. But I like sucking cock and bugging people on /lgbt/ too. Hey what’re you doing on here given all those cool things to do with your time you just rattled off?
>>43029056It's alcoholicbrained I did that for like half a year and recently got up to 15 a night since I'm an addict and am now slow tapering off because it was beginning to fuck up my life unsurprisinglyIf it's like 1-3 a day that's not so bad but it'll affect health in the long run
>>43029800I was drinking 1-3 per day for years, stopped a year ago almost completely. Last week I started again because the state of the world is stressing me out and I'm piss drunk after just one a a half beers
>>43029756>you’re insufferable for arguing an alternative way of living that isn’t self-destructiveand you’re delusional>>43029795>what are you doing here forWaiting for laundry to be done, and I like to occasionally scour this board for art pics and counter-arguing shit takes.
>>43029800yeah its 2-3 a day for me, sometimes ill have a day off. ill basically never drink more than three in a day. been like this since quitting smoking weed 2 years ago. im aware of the long term risks, but ppl have mentioned it affecting transition, in what ways can it be detrimental?
>>43029875If it's self destructive to drink once or twice a month at social events, and to get fucked in the ass by your partner when you both feel like it, then I guess I love self destruction. Wouldn't even want to live any other way
>>43029909Like I said, if you want to be the old boomers we hang our heads in shame who smoke, drink, think lead in food is no big deal, or cars that contribute to green house gases, then that’s fine make your bed then.
>>43029949No, I don't want that. But you seem to be arguing that any potentially harmful thing at all should be avoided. Of course its bad to drink alcohol daily or even weekly and of course you probably shouldn't bareback a stranger every day. But the idea that ever drinking alcohol or having anal sex or whatever is bad and should be avoided is just way too much
>>43029875> Waiting for laundry to be doneSounds good anon. I actually think you seem cool and appreciate that you take your long term health seriously. Even your militant straight edge attitude is kind of charming. I do take care of myself have an interesting life I’m happy with- I was just having fun teasing you for being a square :p>>43029863Careful anon, it’s easy to slip back into old habits. I agree though, the world is scary
>>43029990>it’s just way too much to not indulge in this one clearly harmful behaviorThe reason it should all be heavily denounced and discontinued by everyone is because its existence is an advertisement that continues to plague society and overall harm the group total. The normalization of consuming or partaking in these self-destructive activities results in more people involving themselves with said harmful activities. This doesn’t fix itself until we put down the beer bottle. Again, literally millions of other things in life to experience other than these two or so habits you want to die for.
>>43029462>yes they’re all bad.Okay so there is no reason for me to listen to you because you have zero social capital. You can demonize alcohol but only if you allow people to smoke and you can demonize smokes as long as you allow peoppe to drink. If you demonize everything at once nobody will like you.
>>43030106The third option is you can still demonize both just remove the factors that contribute to mass reliance on said vices for emotional and mental outlets: billionaire predators grinding people to dust; corrupt governments preventing the ability to address and alleviate the struggles of their people; neglecting the existence of alternatives to said vices that could be equally if not more fulfilling.You just sound like an addict to me regardless if it’s “once in a while” consumption. If you can’t live a life without one of these vices, you are by definition an addict.
>>43030073I'm going to actually sincerely defend moderate alcohol consumption here, even though I think it will fall on deaf ears.I believe its no coincidence that the drastic decrease in alcohol consumption in young people also coincides with a loneliness epidemic. Alcohol is known as a social lubricant for a reason, and chronic loneliness is known to be as harmful as smoking a pack of cigarettes per day. If we could end the loneliness epidemic at the cost of having the average zoomer get drunk once or twice a month, I believe this would be a benefit to public health and to life satisfaction
>>43030269> If we could end the loneliness epidemic at the cost of having the average zoomer get drunk once or twice a month, I believe this would be a benefit to public health and to life satisfactionAgreed. I have a lot of younger coworkers, and it’s crazy how common severe social anxiety is among them.
>>43030269Why not tackle said loneliness epidemic with better systems in place, instead of a cop out that is harmful? You forget to mention the cost of legalizing alcohol is a contribution to violence resulted from drinking too: vehicular manslaughter, domestic violence, rapes, etc.Were intelligent sentient creatures we can find a better solution than this.
>>43029056No its california brained
>>43029056yes
>>43030384>why not reorganize all of society top to bottom using a patchwork of decrepit political systems and a stalled out geopolitical world order?I mean sure we should definitely do that, but the kids are lonely now, and that’s all on gonna take a generation minimum to do. Why not have a drink occasionally and unwind until we live in a utopian society?
>>43030384I mean, the better systems are a prerequisite for any improvement, but I firmly believe an actual alleviation of the crisis would go hand in hand with more alcohol consumption. People drink to socialise, and socialise to drink or get inebriated in some other way. That's a constant in all societies throughout history. The mindset demanding constant self optimization and restraint that is behind the decrease in drinking is also behind social isolation. Sure we're sentient creatures capable of rationality, but if we try to be just that, we become less human
>>43029056it's repperbrained, don't do it if you have something to live for
>>43029056Beer lowers testosterone, but also causes a myriad of other health issues. I think regularly drinking alcohol is like the greatest sign someone is literally cattle.
No, it signals a nutrient deficiency.
>>43029709>YOU CAN'T EAT A BURGER BECAUSE THIS MAKES MY CLITTY LEAK
>>43029056>every dayyeah kind of. Every few days isn't so bad though, my mom does that.
>>43029209>>43029709this kind of attitude is the real poison. refusing any indulgence because you're afraid of looking old at age 60 or w/e. less people like you, please>>43029756agreed (but do wear sunscreen please)
>>43029631>alcoholism is malebrained. stop drinking regularlytfw my mom is malebrained ;_;
>>43029196If Eastern European yes. Elsewhere it's a women's drink.
>>43038522fwiw though i gotta say drinking EVERY DAY feels pathetic and miserable, it ceases to feel good or be any fun at all if you do it too often.
>>43029462they're actually extremely fun and especially uppers contribute more to social harmony than basically any other thing. Almost all highly sociable, happy and influential people engage in a moderate amount of drug use.
>>43029056Plenty of women drink beer, being concerned about it is retarded. My cousins wife is the girliest girl's girl ever and she drinks beer
