Cleverest women are the heaviest drinkers

A friend sent me this article.  I saw the title and was immediately interested. 

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/women_shealth/7549959/Cleverest-women-are-the-heaviest-drinkers.html

The article brings to life a few key points.  Clever woman (more educated)
  • Wait to later in their life to have kids (and can drink more)
  • They work with men (who drink more than woman)
  • They drink to fit in
  • Their responsibilities at home at a younger age are fewer and build drinking into their lifestyle
  • Are more likely middle class and can afford to drink
There are some interesting points in the article, but it also points out the health issues associated with drinking daily.  Take a look and let me know what you think.
