Out on the beach for a while today, i ran across two people waving for attention; turns out they were stuck right past the ‘4wd only past this point’ sign. I got them unstuck, made sure they didnt need anything else and was about to head on my way. One of the women offered me a couple road sodas, and i declined- i havent drank alcohol in about 13 years and have no inclination to start again. The other woman actually scoffed, and said ‘what man isnt going to accept a beer from a couple women on the beach, are you a f-slur?’
So i left.
Why the fuck do people who drink alcohol act this way around people who dont drink?
Agree here, like a blend of the attempt to shame you into being “normal”, perceived insult at the assumption you view them as lesser, and their indignance at being internally promoted to confront their own morals.
