[quote=Anonymous]I like the taste of some alcohol.  I just do.  And, I usually have a glass of wine every night. Because I like it. Can I go without it? Yes, and I have. For many days. For a pregnancy.

I agree that those who drink and drive are pretty awful.  Most of us don't (we use uber when we know we are going to be out and drinking).

I think we can all agree that the college binge drinking is problematic (but I would argue it's not just the alcohol but poor judgment of young people).  I also think your suggestion that "nothing" is being done about it is wrong.  Have you been to college? Because, the messaging is there for sure.  And restrictions (i.e., you could not drink in the dorms at my college).

Beyond that, I don't care that you don't like alcohol.  I also don't care for your sanctimony.  Because, regardless of your intention or the message you mean to convey, it all gets lost in your tone.

I am a vegetarian. And have some pretty strong views on that and a lot of other things.  But, you know what? Sanctimony is a conversation killer.  And, you appear to be the queen of sanctimony, which is why your getting the push back that you are. Reconsider your tone and save your judgment.  I'm sure if we looked, and probably not all that hard, we'd find plenty to judge you about too.[/quote]
