Drinking gin makes you feel sexier - Magical Realist - Jul 31, 2018
"GOOD news gin lovers - sipping on an ice cold G&T makes you feel sexier.
In fact, all forms of spirits were found to make people friskier in a recent study.
People who drink gin admitted to feeling sexier, according to the recent study
This is how drinks make you feel
Some 42 per cent of respondents said they felt sexier and more in the mood when sipping on spirits, as opposed to beer or wine.
But that doesn't mean wine won't get you in the mood.
A quarter of people admitted red wine makes them feel frisky and 24 per cent said the same for white wine.
Just 19 per cent said beer was likely to get them in the mood.
A quarter of red wine drinkers also admitted their choice of tipple gets the in the mood
But on the down side, spirits also make many people feel aggressive, restless or even tearful or worst of all, ill.
Experts from Public Health Wales and Kings College London quizzed 29,836 people in 21 countries on the emotions they feel after drinking different types of alcohol.
They found women are more likely than men to have drinks that make them feel sexy.
Men were more likely to feel aggressive after any alcohol and females more likely to feel any of the other emotions.
Some 59 per cent said they were more confident after spirits.
But the stiff drinks left 30 per cent feeling aggressive."

Too bad spirits don't make the imbiber look sexier.

Well, you could try to lower their inhibitions with something other than alcohol. Oh, ya, never mind. You should stick with the alcohol.

Again, it's rather sad that you can only think in terms of "pickup", instead of emotional engagement. I prefer both myself and women sober. Learn to be free naturally.

Calm down, boy. It was your term, not mine.
Emotional Spiking
Spiking their drinks. Spiking their emotions. Hey, I got a crazy idea. Why don’t you just try treating them like a human being?

Hey, I don't know what kind of rabbit holes you go down. Many people don't know who might have coined any term they use.
So you think giving a woman an emotionally engaging interaction somehow downplays their humanity? O_o
Or are emotions so central to a woman that that's the primary way to help her break down judgmental social conditioning and be herself?
Personally, I'd prefer women to be clear-headed, enjoying themselves, and not feeling any pressure to live up to social expectations. What part of that isn't treating them like a human being? O_o

Geez! Don’t get your panties in a bunch.
I'm just responding to what you said.

How are you planning on doing this when you're constrained to the linear, logical thought processes. O_o

LOL! No one's in a twist. Just won't let you get away with painting me as something I'm not. You do the exact same thing.
Women being primarily emotional and men being primarily logical doesn't mean either is incapable of accessing the other. It's actually a man's logical nature that allows him to be objective enough about the emotions to lead the interaction in a positive direction, instead of being so reactive.

Oh, I see. So you're just manipulating her emotions. Gotcha.

Why, do you feel manipulated any time you enjoy a guy's company? Or do you feel like you got something you wanted?
