I don’t like wine, and I don’t like beer, though I’m trying to learn which ones I do like. Mostly I don’t like beers that taste like beer, so I stick to bourbon and ciders. I also don’t drink every night, so there’s that.

Same thing happens with weed. Do you know many people have no idea what strain of they're smoking?

WTF else are you supposed to do at 81. Sounds like she's living the life and you're just jealous.

Maybe because there are a lot of options to pick from? i know there are a lot of options when it comes to beer as well, but maybe more men feel insecure about drinking wine? I know a good bit of men who drink wine.

My grandmother use to start drinking wine every day right after lunch until she went to sleep. If you went over to her house in the evening, she was feeling right.. On the weekends she would drink more. Her daughter, my aunt.. Who is now in her late 70s is the same way, but I think she start at lunch time.

My dad use to drink a 6 pack every night.. And would drink wine from time to time, my mom didn't drink as much but when she does its usually beer.

I am a tequila man myself.

Because wine tends to be sweeter and easier to learn to like than beer for most people, imo


I am a pretty indiscriminate drinker, I will drink most kinds of beer, wine, and liquor. I've tried getting more into wine but I always come back to beer.

Why do men do the same thing with beer? Men laugh at beer memes, think it’s cool to order an odd beer, and think drinking beer is manly.

There’s nothing wrong with enjoying a glass...or bottle of wine occasionally. I know exactly what type of wine I like and which region it comes from. I find most of my female friends are the same.
I find most guys don’t know a lot about wines...I think that has more to do with it being viewed a “less manly” to drink wine vs. beer.

Advertisement & Social media. Damn near every girly show that comes on has women drinking wine. They get together and watch The Bachelor and drink wine. Then they go to yoga and drink wine. Hell, you can't go to a child's birthday party without these moms busting out the wine or champagne. All while posting pictures all over social media, with a reference about wine.

IMO, women's have just taken it to social media more than guys - therefore, it's in your face...if you're on social media.

I like wine because it comes in those convenient, single-serving bottles.

because deep down they are all whores, if they drink wine they have a crutch to blame their behavior on.

The same reason men like beer... it's relaxing.

It's a little better on the waistline too.

It's just one of the many benefits of drinking wine. I like beer also, especially all the craft ones these days.

But a couple glasses of wine won't make me get up 2-3 times in the middle of the night (I'm old).

Where I live there are quite a few nice wineries. I love bold reds and have learned alot about making it. So much so a couple of years ago I began making my own. It's not great, but drinkable. And a helluva lot cheaper than buying it.

Yes women like wine. I've poured a few times for my favorite winery at large wine events (I'm a saleman at heart). Let me tell you, women like wine. And that's just fine by me.

I’m convinced most of them don’t really like the taste of wine, but they view it as a woman thing, a socially acceptable way for a woman to get drunk.

Replace the word women with men and the word wine with beer and the same argument holds true
