[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Alcohol. (Note: this does not include soccer hooligans)

Because the drinking age is 16 or 18 in most countries, people learn that having a glass of wine with dinner or a beer at a gathering somewhere is just normal. There isn’t a culture of frat bros getting s-faced drunk at parties at universities. [/quote]

That’s complete nonsense. Binge drinking is a huge problem in European countries, for example. UK, France, Spain, Russia. This might be true for Islamic countries. [/quote]

French person here. Not France. Kids learn to drink responsibly at the family dinner table. It's not forbidden fruit. Can't say for other countries. [/quote]

Lol

[quote] French young people are also at high risk. For instance, a 2017 ESPAD survey showed,

44% of underage French youth (17-year olds) reported a binge alcohol episode within a month, and
3 in 10 say they were never asked for age verification when purchasing alcohol.
According to the Weekly Epidemiological Bulletin (BEH) in February, 2019, young people between the ages of 18 to 24 years have fewer occasions of alcohol use but consume more alcohol in one occasion. Over half (54%) report a binge alcohol occasion within a month.

The French binge alcohol use problem
France is also showing that the “mediterranean way” of consuming alcohol is more an alcohol industry myth than reality. Heavy episodic alcohol use is a major problem in the country. For example, binge alcohol use is one of the leading causes for hospitalizations in France. And it affects people of all ages.

A study published in the Inpes Health Barometer 2014 reported that 14% of 15 to 24 year olds and 10% of 25 to 34 year olds engage in heavy episodic alcohol consumption. It appears younger people binge on alcohol more than older adults.
However, older adults (average age 43 years) are the ones hospitalized more due to acute alcohol intoxication which is a result of binge alcohol use.
