   I think you have the scale mislabelled. Sweet shit like appletinis or those with cutesy names are for pussies who don’t drink enough. Others, perhaps depend on your nationality. And others are for those who are alcosnobs.

   If you insist, I would be very suspicious of any guy drinking sweet drinks or those with stupid names. Metros will drink imported shit, expensive scotch and wine regardless of whether they actually like it. A real man will drink whatever the fuck he wants and will gladly take it outside if you think he’s a pansy.

   Gin/tonic, vodka/tonic, red wine, scotch rocks = straight

   Manhattan, Pabst Blue Ribbon = old school straight

   Appletini, Cosmo, mudslide, mint julip = gay

   I got two Amstel Light in the fridge so I’m calling that straight yet calorie conscious.

   I’m also suspicious of any man ordering drinks with funny names. Mojito, car bomb, red bull = metro.

   I think your concept here is kind of incomplete. If you’ve ever been over to politicalcompass.org you know that the liberal-conservative distinction is only half the story for politics–you’ve also got the authoritarian-libertarian side of the story.

   The same thing applies here. You also need an up-down axis for high-brow versus low-brow. So in this way, PBR is as far to the lower left corner as possible, Scotch on the rocks is in the upper left, Martini is upper middle, Cosmopolitan is upper right, and Mojito is bottom right. Margarita and Heineken are in the exact center, more or less.

   Amstel Light – METRO
   Appletini – Chick drink
   Car bomb -Frat boy
   Cider – ME (I love the stuff)
   Cosmopolitan – Chick drink
   Gin and tonic – Frat boy
   Heineken – jus a regular guy
   Manhattan – people drink these?
   Margarita – Just a regular guy
   Martini straight up – handle with care, the boy can hold his liquor.
   Mint julip – chick drink
   Mojito – chick drink
   Mudslide – chick drink
   Pabst Blue Ribbon – the only kind of beer I like, oddly enough.
   Red wine – My drink of choice (and depending on what type, a guy who is either a pretensious idiot or someone who actually knows wine. Or both).
   Scotch rocks – Handle with care…the boy will put you under the table. And have gin blossoms at 50.
   Vodka Red Bull – Frat boy
   Whiskey shot – See above (handle with care)
   Whiskey sour – ugh.
   White wine – Gayer than gay.

   If a guy opts to drink a chick drink, he’s either a lightweight, extremely self-assured, or somewhere between metro and gay. I don’t feel you gave us enough options, so I made up my own.

   First off, I would drink all of them if they were free.

   Secondly, I very rarely find myself saying or thinking “Oh my god this is so good I can’t even taste the alcohol” That is gay.

   A margarita on the rocks, no salt from scratch is the shit.

   “Heinken fuck that shit, Pabst Blue Ribbon”

   Red wine rules!

   Scotch on the rocks, rocks!

   Whiskey shots. Yes please!

   Gin n’ tonics kick my ass all over the place for some reason.

   White wine, I don’t even like really expensive white wine.

   Red Bull n’ Vodka, I’ll drink the Red Bull, then I’ll drink some vodka.

   Vodka tonics yum yum yum!

   I’m pretty far from metro. I think i wear the same 5 or 6 dirty shirts and haven’t combed my hair or given it any attention in at least a year. it’s not “look at me i’m a rocker” messy, it’s just unkempt.

   i do agree:

   1. Margaritas – fresh lime, shit load of good tequila that i won’t regret the next day is kick ass. order your margaritas with more tequila than lime every time.

   2. Wine – nothing gets the job done like wine. tasty to boot.

   3. Beer – the old standby. be it in a glass, a boot, a pitcher, a bottle, or mixed with a shot. who gives a fuck what the marketing of the beer is, it’s fucking beer! Every beer has it’s purpose. working in the yard all day, PBR. Want to enjoy something tasty and slow, double IPA. at a bar, whatever the fuck is on draft that’s dark and delicious.

   4. Martini – a good opener to prime the system.

   Booze is what it is. order what you like. the only thing I hate seeing is when someone orders something complicated like a mojito when the bar is packed and the bartender is thumping.

   respect your bartender, aka lifeline to booze.

    I agree I would drink all if free. Except for Wine. First off I dont put labels on drinks on if a Man or Woman should drink it. It is ALL alcohol so does it really matter? Everyone is gettin a hella good buzz or even more so who gives a shit what your drinkin? People just drink what they like why whould they have to drink whiskey straight just to be a “man”? It’s all booz let’s just party!

    i was just wondering if anyone knew if a traditional martini (Gin and dry vermouth) is for gay, bi or straight men. I am nor sure, i think it is for straight men but i am not sure.
    thanks

    Why not just drink what you want?

    Because that’s not funny.

    Haha! What a fun idea.

    Heineken – for straight guys that don’t know better. Stop drinking that shit, guys!
    G&T, mojito and martini – for anyone and everyone.
    Cosmopolitan – needs a classification beyond merely “gay”.

    Similarly, I think the addition of Miller or Budweiser needs something beyond “straight”. Maybe “Straight and proving it”.
