You'll Drink To That? There's Your Problem
-
Is there a possible problem brewing in the proliferation of media images promoting the idea that women love to drink wine? A few years ago, all you had was "Absolutely Fabulous," and in that, Patsy and Eddie were depicted as losers who drank wine and "champers" and were oblivious to their own ridiculousness. But now, there's a LOT of wine drinking on TV and you don't have to look hard for it -- Kathie Lee and Hoda raise glasses on their "Today Show" hour in the morning, for example. And alcohol consumption, and problems, are up among women, who also start drinking earlier than men. It might not be cute and funny to celebrate this anymore. (Minneapolis Star-Tribune)
