Episode notes
Called 'Princess' Buying Rosé
- Anney describes buying rosé and being called "princess" by a man in the shop who talked about her in third person.
- She uses the story to show how drink choices trigger infantilizing or dehumanizing reactions toward women.
Gendered Marketing Shapes Drinking Habits
- The alcohol industry heavily gendered products and marketing toward stereotypes of toughness for men and beauty/weight for women.
- That marketing shapes drinking choices and can create harmful behaviors like 'drunkorexia' and stigma around women's drinking.
Drinking Serves Different Social Purposes
- Older research finds men and women drink for different social reasons: men for effect/agency, women for social bonding and ritual.
- Those role differences help explain patterns like men drinking faster in bars and women drinking wine slowly at gatherings.
