"Women don't want to talk to drunks"Fact or fiction?

My theory regarding the corellation between being tipsy and drunk came to the fore again last weekend. We had just won our first championship match of the year and went out for "a few pints" afterwards. While I was in clearly happy form that we had won, I wasn't overly fussed about getting as drunk as the rest of the lads as I had work the next day.

Anyway I did the usual, had a couple of pints and plucked up the courage to get talking to a few women. Getting a long grand with one of them when one of the lads, my eldest cousin, in his "drunken charm" interupted our conversation and saind to her (she was a few years older than me in his defence) "all ye ould wans want is to ride younger lads. Go easy on my cousin". She was mortified and actually went home after her next drink.

Now I'm not saying I would have pulled her and that he broke my balls or whatever, but I will say I've finally discovered the threshold between being tipsy and being drunk and the effect it has on meeting women. And I've also realised why of all my drinking buddies I've been,let's say....the most successful, in recent weeks. Not making a show of myself
