Re: Can alcohol make men smarter?

Have you ever been hit on by a drunk guy in a bar?

Well, I have. I can unequivocally answer that without even clicking on the link: aw, hell no, booze does not make guys smarter.

I Think The Researchers Were Drunk Themselves When They Collected the Data...

And though it's been many, many years since I last imbibed, I still have pangs of guilt over occasional lapses into boorish behavior.

Alcohol didn't make the ladies any better looking, but it sure made me think they were...

And it might've had a religious element as well. Sometimes it made me think I was God's gift to the fair sex...

I think Mormonism has that same effect on RM's...

Re: Can alcohol make men smarter?

I noticed one thing. I cutted carbs because I read somewhere that I would increase my libido that way (increase of testo). Actually, my libido decreased. I started to eat carbs again and drink alcohol a few times a week (no strong beverages but beer with low alcohol %), know I notice that the so called harmful cortisol kick-starts my libido.

When I didn't drink, I believed in Mormonism. Now that I do occasionally drink, I don't believe in Mormonism. I have a penis. Do the math.

Re: Can alcohol make men smarter?

All devout people I know live in celibacy and do not know how to treat women well. I am over 30 and still a virgin. Thank you celibacy!!!! ;)

Today I read on a large conservative-nationalistic site that a guy that posted a picture of a very nice female butt had very bad view on women.

No, he have NATURAL urges and TASTE.

If that were true, the RM I divorced would be one of the smartest men alive.

Re: Can alcohol make men smarter?

Let's do a test. Straight men almost always want to sleep with women they just met, and women want to wait until they know a guy before they sleep together. Put them in a room together with alcohol, and the odds of clothes coming off increases significantly.

That's called a 3.2 IQ

As a former bartender, booze certainly makes both men AND women think they are smarter.

Well, if you are an adherent to Cliff Clavin's Buffalo Theory...

naturally, and very quickly, you'd say "YES, OF COURSE!"
