people like it ...
for me ..i HATE wine but i will drink other types of alcahol...
when people start to drink alcahol it is when they are mature enough to drink it sensibily ...like some people just drink and get wasted just to look cool and tell there friends about..

but it is totally normal for kids to like alcohol even if there not aloud to buy it in stores!

People drink it for the thrill of doing something illegal, to get drunk, to loosen up, peer pressure, etc. Some people might not like it a drink it anyways just to fit in with a certain group of people and others who dont like it just dont drink it.

There are TONS of reasons why people drink. Some people like the taste of alcohol. Some people just drink to fit in with a certain group of people, since so many teens drink. Maybe people drink to loosen up and feel more comfortable. Also, some drink because they like the feeling of being drunk. Some people drink to deal with their problems. There are tons of reasons, and it really does vary from person to person. I can guarantee that some people that drink alcohol don't even like the taste of it.

people drink it for a lot of different reasons...
some drink it with meals because that's their heritage, fit in in high school [which i don't recommend], to get drunk &/or forget their troubles [alcoholism], to loosen up & dance, or just to have a good time. if you don't like it, don't drink it. no one will make you. before you completely condemn it tho, turn 21 & try other kinds besides what you have tried already. you'll probably end up liking something by that time. oh, by the way, a lot of people do hate the tase of alcohol but figure that after a couple swigs, they won't care/notice what it tastes like anymore. <3

I don't like it either. Everyones taste buds are different. Some people just simply like the taste. Others do it to fit in [which is probably 90% of teens, actually, probably more]. I don't see how alcohol would make you "cool", but that's just me. Some people do it because everything else in their life is falling apart. Everyone is different.

-- To answer your question, it wasn't so much as I got older, because I'm only 19 (that's the legal drinking age here) and I've only been drinking for just under a year. It's not so much about age, it's more about trying it a few times, finding a kind that you like, and getting used to the taste and feeling you get from it.

There seem to be a lot of negative emotions regarding alcohol!

I personally enjoy some alcohol. I found that beer and wine are acquired tastes, so although I didn't like them at first, I do now, because I both enjoy the taste, and like many other drugs, it makes you feel good IN MODERATION.

I do not, however, drink to get drunk. I never have more than 4 drinks at any given time. A couple beers with friends, a daiquiri on the beach... that's just fun!

When you drink to solve your problems, that is not a common reason. That is alcoholism. Just to clear that up.

People drink for a lot of reasons.


The most common reason is because they think it's helping them to solve their problems. Alcohol is a depressant type of drug, so people with problems will take it because it has an effect on them that they like.


Others drink just to get knocked on their ass from being so drunk. In other words, they drink just to do it. Some do it because they like it, and others do it because getting drunk is a "cool" thing to do.


However, if you don't like alcohol, then don't drink it. It's that simple. You don't have to drink it, so do yourself a favor & don't. You're better off without it.

Personally, I like alcohol and the taste of it.

Some people like it, and some people don't. Not everyone has to like it, or drink it, but most do. Everyone has different taste buds and are entitled to their own opinion. Also, everyone drinks it for different reason's too. There's : to relax ; to act cool ; to get drunk ; and a way to make new friends.


Hope I helped ?

Personally, I like to drink alcohol while sitting at home and hanging out with my husband on weekends.

Some people just drink for the effect- to get nose-in-the-dirt drunk. (Well, they generally intend to get just drunk, but typically end up with their nose in the dirt...)

Some people, like myself, drink because they like it. I like to sip on whiskey. To me it just tastes good. That is my personal preference.

If you hate drinking, then don't EVER feel as though you have to. Drinking alcohol is not good for you, so you are doing your body a favor by choosing not to. :)
