      Some people are so deeply insecure in their sexualities that they believe the color and flavor of liquids you ingest will make you suddenly want to participate in same-gendered coitus. It’s really pathetic.

        So a gender identity thing?

        And what about wine? Hard boys only drink the strong stuff, no?

        Beer? Has female hormones in it!

          No, it’s a sexual orientation thing.

          They think that liking “girly” drinks means you’re gay.

              Nope, it’s a binary thing to them.

              Liking things that women like = being gay. They’re not very complex thinkers.

            Other than wine that’s about the cheapest abv you can get in Oz. One of the worst countries in general I’ve been to for drinking on the cheap.

        Mead is Viking drink, must be manly! But berries add fruity flavours and colours that are girly.
