Beer goggles

Is it only males who find that "beauty is on the eye of the beer holder"? Or do females suffer similar delusions after a few Bacardis-and-coke?

Hell yeah. I've had the case of beer goggles quite a few times :D (and I'm a woman)

i heard a rumour that a certain amount of alcohol raises the testosterone levels of a woman to that of the average man. thus they become a bit more forthcoming under the influence. i'm not sure how much they need mind you. a tenner should just about cover it!!!

I think there was a study at Glasgow using pics of people from here that found both men and women rated people more attractive after drinking.

So we probably do suffer the same delusions as you guys after a few drinks ;-)

A couple of girls I've woken up next to have uttered the words "oh my god I can't believe I went home with you"

I'm just kidding, girls are intimidated by my beauty so they don't even talk to me, let alone come home with me...That's what I tell myself, anyway...

The first rule of advertising is;

Men are obsessed with sex, but will forego sex to drink beer or watch sport.

I'd never do anything drunk that i wouldn't do sober. Drink really doesn't change anything. (apart from confidence, clarity of speech, the obvious)

It just changes what you think you would do sober.

Aren't men more sex-obsessed an women more love obsessed (that's what I thought anyway). A woman has to love some one - or believe she loves some to sleep with them (I certainly only sleep with people I love a lot). Alcohol doesn't really influence this.

This notion is like unicorns: Quaint, believed in by a lot of people, but there's no evidence to substantiate.

nothing quaint about unicorns, theyre big fucking wild horses with big fucking spikes on them, you see a unicorn, you run and find the nearest silver sabot firing shotgun.

Of course females suffer from beer goggles. The thing about drinking far too much is that you can convince yourself what was a terrible idea sober, has now become a brilliant idea that has to be carried out.

Personally, I lose all common sense (not that I have much in the first place), manners and decorum.

In short, for the sake of my dignity and other peoples' sensibilities, I should abstain from the blessed A.

that is a pretty sexist comment to make. i know plenty of girls who don't care whether or not they love someone to sleep with them and plenty of guys who don't have one night stands...
