I’m curious about cd alcohol use compared to the public in general. Please honestly answer the questions. From the National institute on Alcohil Abuse and Alcoholism.
70 % of people reported drinking in the past year
55% of people reported in the past month
25% of people reported binge drinking in the past month
6% reported heavy drinking in the past month
how do crossdressers stack up?
No alcohol for me, my esoghogus won't take it. Haven' t had alcohol for over 4 decades.

I've had a few beers (one at a time, or on rare occasions I'll have two in a row) in the past month, which is pretty typical for me. Used to have a beer every other night or so but since the end of 2019 or so I've been drinking a lot less.
Haven't had anything to drink while dressed up anytime recently, though.
Hi Jennifer,
The curse of surveys strikes again - I'd have preferred an 'all of the above' response.
People might like to see a definition of 'binge' and 'heavy' drinking, and unfortunately definitions differ - the following may be controversial (Famous last words?)
Binge - drinking anything between 4 and 8 drinks in any one session
Heavy - depends who you listen to :
- four or more episodes of binge drinking in a month, or
- around 15 drinks a week for a mans physiology, 8 for a woman's
Everything in moderation as they say, whatever the drug. Unfortunately no one can agree on what 'moderation' means. If you take so little that it has no effect, is that moderation?

I have maybe one small beer or glass of wine a week at the most, I have never really liked alcohol or the effect it has!
I even drove to my own Stag party* so my Best Man could drink lol.
* Batchelor party (US) or Bucks night (AUS) 😀

Hi.
Well I love a drink...in moderation.
Definitely not more than one, usually none, when grace is out and about.....she needs a clear head to operate.......staying alert is very important.
Crossdressing and alcohol don't mix......in my opinion.

I am cursed by a German heritage that causes a love of beer 🍺, a Canadian side that causes a love of rye whiskey 🥃, and my girliness that loves a glass of wine 🍷.
Not a binge drinker however, slow and steady.... wins the race? 😁

I have a habit of not drinking alcohol.
I quit drinking almost completely 5 or 6 years ago. Might still have a couple of beers to celebrate my collage teams bowl game. once a year, which might happen a lot more since this last year they spent a lot of the season ranked in the to[p 10 for the first time ever. GO CYCLONES!!

I have that darn German heritage too. And being from Wisconsin. Taverns are everywhere and that is where most people socialize. I tend to drink my fair share. Not everyday but a Malibu and diet sure tastes good some nights.
Hi! Nopes to alcohol. Ruins a girls figure! I’d rather a touch of edible 420 once in a while just for giggles! Silly me!
Hi Jennifer Alcohol and other drugs were very much apart of my CDing during my teens. Gay night clubs and bars were the only places I knew that I could dress and have fun. Wow!! I am truly amazed i made it out of my late teens and the life style I was living at the time. Drugs and alcohol continued to be a part of my CDing into my late twenties. I stopped drinking not CDing during my thirties. Luckily i found and became a member of a private club for girls like us. No alcohol allowed it was a great time. Occasionally a few of the girls would come to the club to get dressed and go out to a gay night club on drag nights I did go out with them several times but I only drank bubbly water. I guess you could say alcohol and cross dressing have always been a part of my life. Fortunately I never had a problem with alcohol aside from occasional slight hangovers. I know for some of the girls alcohol was their poison and regretted their actions the next day. Now a glass of wine with dinner and a mixed drink on weekends suits me just fine. Thank you for the memories.
Luv Stephanie
Not so much drink but when i was a teenager i used to take speed to keep my dress size at 10 uk plus it would make ones bits shrivel up too, id never eat and keep my dress size at 10 or 12 xx
I don't drink. coffee or water maybe
Non-drinker here; during my working years, I would use "uppers" occasionally, and I would grab a cold brew at the NCO club after duty...but that is all far in the past.
