A man ordering gin & tonic is a known turn off / red flag to women?

[Anonymous]

Every millenial man I know over the past few years that still drinks has switched over to drinking gin in his middle age. I guess it’s manlier than a vodka tonic!

I drive a Forester and DH loves a gin and tonic. We must be in a lavender marriage.

You drive an LAV (Lesbian Assault Vehicle).

I think it has more to do with whom you heard this info from.

No of course not. It's just a drink.

Gin and tonic is the perfect drink. According to Douglas Adams, virtually every planet in the galaxy has a version!

“Jynnan tonnyx is a drink invented by the Golgafrinchans, which the Captain of the "B" ark is fond of and offers to Ford and Arthur. It is noteworthy because roughly 85% of all planets have some drink with a similar sounding name, all of which were named before the planet made interstellar contact. The drinks themselves vary from plain lukewarm water to something that can kill a cow from a hundred paces. The only linking factor is the name. Other versions of the name include gee'N'N-T'N-ix, chinanto/mnigs, tzjin-anthony-ks, jinond-o-nicks and gin-and-tonics.”

Gin and tonic has some effeminate and/or gaydar insinuations?

Depends on the temperature outside. If it's 90 degrees or more, I might order one. Or, more likely, fix myself one. Anything cooler and that's 100% fairy territory.

I've never met an American male Anglophile who wasn't gay or bi.
