NY Mag has an article about how my fellow females are consuming an intense amount of alcohol these days. In the world of NYC, alcohol is basically the second food group to cupcakes.
"Drinking is our go-to activity. Meeting a friend implies going to a bar. Having a meal implies a round of cocktails beforehand. A party implies a serious hangover"
For some reason, the article relates this increase of intoxication to the feminist theory that drinking equals power for many women. The power to work hard and play hard in many male dominated industries.
I say true on some accounts and false on others. The S theory is a little different - it could potentially boil down to the idea that when you work till 4 in the morning and sit for 17 hours in a chair, who wouldn't want to kick back the vodka? No feminist theory, no shenanigans regarding power, just plain and simple - the need to release, drink up, and have fun.

I legit just read this article a hot second ago. It's fascinating...also I probably clicked on the link to it from the blog, lets be honest.
Keep up the fab work ladiesssss, you keep me entertained while I sit through hours of meaningless classes about glycogenolysis.
