Swan. escribió:I hate alcohol culture and I especially hate when my friends are caught up in it. I hate that drinking is seen as a rite of passage, and I hate that turning 21 in the US means you have to publicly declare and prove that you love alcohol by making terrible decisions all day and night. I hate that it changes people, and I’m not talking about the drinks themselves but all the lead up to it and the aftermath. I hate that getting “shit faced” is an actual goal and not even for a vague sense of enjoyment but rather as a notch on your belt because you haven’t lived until you’ve gotten drunk…or some shit like that. I hate how alcohol manages to amplify all your worst qualities. I especially hate alcohol in the hands of men, for whom it is yet another tool (or excuse) to be violent and predatory. I just really hate the culture surrounding alcohol.
