    Are certain drinks more suited to different genders?

    I usually drink a pint of beer or guinness. But lately I've moved on to gin, is this a feminine drink?

    Discus.

    I got an Appletini once before (Scrubs product placement) and drew more than one awkward glance from the locals I must say..

    Women do tend to go for sweeter drinks than men, though it obviously varies. I love cosmo's, didn't go down well in a bar in Australia one time. If only I cared.

    Why yes! if you drink Budweiser you're a little pansy bitch or a little skanger trollop with hollahoops in her ears. Where as if you drink Guinness, you're a rugged manly man... or a very hairy lesbian ^_^

    Pints for the fellas and a Glass of white wine or fruit-based drink for the ladies.
    It's not hard. Those are the rules.
    And if we didn't have rules, where would we be?....France!

    I guess WKD is more for a girl. But just the blue kind. I don't mind drinking the orange kind.

    Then again I can't stand to drink vodka so I might be a little bit of a girl myself. :D

    I suppose going back a few years pints were off limit to women and if a women did order it, then it'd be poured from the pint glass into a feckin; half-pint glass.

    No. This is just a ridiculous Irish/ British thing. Go anywhere else, no one gives a crap what you drink or what size glass it happens to be served in.

    Unless it's wkd blue. Only scangers and people with no taste buds drink that nasty crap.

    Yes. In that it's the drink of Victorian prostitutes. But also Victorian children.
