    Wimmins can drink whatever and however they like.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    Quite frankly, I'm disgusted.

    Why? The mind boggles sometimes...

    I can't see the poll, but yes I like both.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    When I was younger I used to spend most of the nights on pints...I could have about 7 or 8. Now I can't even have one, I feel way too full and bloated. Although, I can't even have a bottle of Bulmers, let alone a pint, so it's probably just that my taste has changed, not my capacity :)

    Please expand the comment dearie..as it stands it may be seen as just you being you, or you may be really interested in the transexual surgery that I obviously have planned...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,492 ✭✭✭Thomas828


    Five pints of anything would have me in and out of the loo like a yo-yo. If you can hold your drink, whether you're man or woman, then that's fine. But I've known too many people who can't, and just get drunk for the sake of it. I've no time for them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41 SteeveSmith


    a woman drinking pints? disgusting

    this is why women were made to drink out of sight.

    A slightly ignorant and sexist post, no?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,057 ✭✭✭Krusader


    Women drinking pints just looks wrong
    Buy pint then pour into glass


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,554 ✭✭✭✭alwaysadub


    I used to drink pints in my younger days when i could hold my drink better. It meant i didn't have to go up to the bar as much! Nowadays though i usually get a bottle or glass. With ice in glass if im trying to take it easy.

    He's likely lying - and just saying it to justify his pining for women to be "ladylike" and drink pretty, fruity drinks.

    I drink "girlie" drinks (vodka and tonic mostly) but I'd drink pints if I didn't have poor wheat/yeast tolerance.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,487 ✭✭✭aDeener


    Women drinking pints is a bit of a turn off, i have to say. looks too butch for my liking. don't see too many of them though

    Wimmens can drink what they want when they want... most of my female friends drink pints... doesnt seem butch to me... makes it easier for rounds too... although they can be a little slow sometimes.... grr


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,850 ✭✭✭Cianos


    Am I missing something here? Why does anyone care what size glass others drink out of?

    Re: the fruity thing. I love wine, but hate drinking wine in pubs, especially when it's from an already opened bottle, and no choice, and secondly, I would drink vodi or a gorgeous bombay and tonic all night...but pub measures are ridiculously small and expensive...I do occasionally succumb to the vicious shorts or wine after a while...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,255 ✭✭✭anonymous_joe


    Who cares what people drink?

    I couldn't give a fcuk if someone drinks a gender appropriate drink. :pac:

    And when did I "cast aspersions"...settle. And as opposed to those who drink pints of carslberg, heini, guinness, apple bulmers?..anyhow, as I stated at the beginning, this is not about the alleged laxitive effects of pear bulmers, so catch up...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,772 ✭✭✭✭Whispered


    I can't drink out of a pint glass - by the time I get to the end whatever is in the glass has gone flat and is slightly warm. I'm too slow. :(

    It's cheaper to do that.

    When I used to drink larger I always ordered a pint and asked for a glass of ice.

    Ice ended up in one of the plant pots in the pub and I had my two glasses of larger only cheaper than if I had ordered them separately.

    And what about the poor potted plant?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,859 ✭✭✭✭Sharpshooter


    It was forever grateful for the slowly melting water I provided, as the pub certainly didn't.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,986 ✭✭✭Red Hand

    Just thinking of those poor plants, many of them no doubt at your local watering hole, the Hartbreak Hotel. Sitting on the floor, hoping to pick up a cute little hydrangia or maybe a sultry chrysanthenum. Then you come along and ruin their evening by pouring ice and resulting meltwater over them.

    Its not easy being green.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,058 ✭✭✭✭Abi


    What a strange thread.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32 pennylane22


    I love my pints but I couldn't drink them all night, I normally have them when I am doing a bit of afternoon drinking while watching a football match or whatever. (Although normally I am not paying much attention to the match, its just an excuse to go to the pub at 2pm)

    Same here.

    Beer gives me serious Belly ache so I have JD's and ice.

    I love Jack Danniels so much.

    The first time I seen girls drinking pints was in Bruxelles in Dublin when I was 15ish (and so were the girls :))

    Must admit I did find it odd as I was used to seeing female relatives drink larger out of the slender half pint glasses.

    I thought it was just a Rocker Chick thing but slowly started to see more and more girls drinking pints.

    I do think it's very sexy to see girls drinking beer from a bottle though :)
