Women Too Like To Drink
In recent years, internationally renowned brands of beers, wine, whisky and other alcoholic beverages flooding Indian market as it is growing at an exponential pace. Along with the menfolk, many Indian women too are taking a liking to drinks like their counterparts in western countries where drinks are normal. This is notable because for so long Indian society has been perceived as conservative and drinks by even men has been a taboo. But since the liberalization of the economy started, along with emergence with new economies like software development, IT enabled services and entry of all major foreign TV channels - a whole new society - flush with cash and avid fan of wester culture has emerged. For drinking drinking together in pubs and discos is social activity. A recent study in metropolitan cities shows that almost 30 percent of ladies are into drinking. Small cities are not far behind with more than 15 percent womenfolk liking a peg or two!
But drinking is not confined only to the upper class or affluent section of the society. It has been found that even women belonging to the lower strata of society, who eke out their livelihood as domestic help are drinking fondly along with their menfolk.
while drinking to relax and socialize is good, alcoholism is not good. Finding chronic drinkers among women in India is also a reality. In fact, over the last fifteen years or so, the problem of alcoholism among women has spread worldwide cutting across economic and social barriers. Besides, it has been observed that, women become addicted to alcohol much quicker than men.
Now, lets discuss why are more and more women taking to drinks!
Experts say that the main reason behind the phenomenon is nothing but want of enjoyment in life and forget problems. A recent report in Germany confirms that of the approximately 1.7 to 1.9 million alcoholics there, 30 percent are of fairer sex. Women too want to feel the magical effect of being drunk and forget all the storms of life. Some women also believe that drinks will give them the feeling of ultimate orgasm and drink only so as to achieve it during sex.
Alcoholism among women is hardly recognized for what it is except in some developed countries where rehabilitation centers have mitigated the situation to some extent. Researchers have found that, women who drink too much are twice as likely to develop breast cancer than those who are not addicted. Alcoholic women are also less social than normal ladies and are likely to loose their normal beauty.
So drink and enjoy but don’t get addicted.
Cheers
