I work with a bunch of mild-mannered, otherwise-polite (mechanical) engineers and I had to stop attending the company holiday parties because of the overt social pressures to drink (that would generally begin after people had tied a few back).

I don't blame you. At a work holiday party a few weeks ago I ordered a cider and some got some rude comments because I ordered something with low alcohol content (what?)

I love berry ciders, but I’ve heard people saying these are ‘for the girls’, because, well, colorful sweet stuff. The weird pressure exists even for those who drink...
