Which do you prefer beer, wine, liquor or abstinence?

Wine, in moderation.

I like any of them, but only occasionally. My favorite is a strawberry daiqueri.

Well, I don't exactly prefer abstinence...but let's just say I stick with the cola and the ice tea. Not that it's any cheaper -- at a lot of places they charge the same as a beer.

I prefer abstinence from beer, wine and alcohol. I have seen too many families ruined by the use of these. I myself had known alcoholics in the family and know what it does to a child and to the spouse. Many years later died from the abuse of these substances.

Abstinence, assuming we're still talking about alcoholic beverages.

Give me a good micro brew any time! ;-)

I don't drink; not for prudish reasons, just haven't acquired a taste for anything. I guess if I had to drink something, it would be a light, fruity wine or sip on a glass of Bailey's Irish Cream.

What is the occasion?

Jill, 61

I drink beer, but really prefer wine or a good bloody mary. On the whole though I probably have 2 or 3 beers in a month.

Either beer or liquor. Beer is usually my first choice, but sometimes I just want a drink with hard alcohol!

Tracy, 24

All of the above.

I like a little wine or Irish Cream now and then, but I don't drink very often.

Triana, 29
Austin
, TX   USA

Eh. I like a good Shiner Bock every now and then, but overall I usually abstain from alcohol. I can't understand why people drink something that makes them look sick as they swallow it.

Nicci, 27

I definitely don't like beer, and wine isn't my cup of tea either. I enjoy mixed drinks mostly, and the ones I usually end up with have vodka in them. I don't drink very often at all, only on special occasions.

Although drinking is against our religion, I didn't drink when I joined the church and now I have good reason not to start.

Reba, 50+
Silver Spring
, MD  USA

I like mixed drinks but haven't had a drink in twenty years due to stomach problems.

Laney
TX USA

My favorite drink is Crown & Coke but I drink beer more often. However, now that I'm married with kids, I abstain most of the time. I'll drink alcohol 2 times a month on average.

Hmm...liquor or wine...

Kyle, 16
OH  USA

I prefer beer, but I will drink anything that's going. Im easily pleased.

Brad, 21

Wine is fine, liquor is quicker, but it takes 5 beers to have any effect on me...10 to get me drunk.

Liquor. Beer's revolting and wine's usually boring (although plum wine is fabulous)

Talia, 24
Wilton
, CT USA

I do not drink any form of alcohol for the simple reason that it makes me sick. It even sickens me to smell alcohol on someone else.

Tam

Nothing refrshes like a cold 40 of Steel Reserve malt liquor. Now I'm thirsty.

A-Dog, 19

Liquor.

Johanna, 18
OK  USA

I'd prolly say liquor or wine even though I haven't touched any of it since New Year's.

Angela, 18

, AR  USA

I always prefer alcohol to abstinence! If you mean absynthe, I've never tried it, but I'm awfully intrigued by it. Out of the other choices, I prefer liquor, gin in particular. Yes, I actually like gin and tonics. I remember after a particularly bad class last semester, my boyfriend would hurriedly mix a gin and tonic for me when I walked in the door. Thankfully, it didn't develop into a habit!

Uhm, liquor.
