4 drinks in a "sitting" for women and 5 drinks for men should be enough to give anyone a pretty good buzz. So they're saying if you get drunk once a week, it's considered high risk behaviour (and/or a disorder).
I can see it. Alcohol is not good for you (known carcinogen) and it's addictive. Not like, maybe sort of kind of addictive if you're prone to it. It's an addictive substance. And its use is totally normalized and even glamorized in society.
I think alcohol is the next cigarettes. We'll look back on this in 15-20 years and be like "holy ####, what were we all thinking?" like many of our parents do with cigarettes.
Or maybe they'll finally find a cure for cancer and then everybody can get back to drinking and smoking to their hearts content.
