I'm also irregular, but it has nothing to do with wine.I’m an irregular wine drinker. But once a month, sure.
I like to drink whiskey out of a wine glass. Makes me look classy.why drink wine when you can drink whiskey?
I've tried on several occasions and just don't like the taste.
If I'm at an event and there's literally nothing else, I CAN.(just so I'm not the only one not drinking) But it's not a pleasant experience for me. .
Just not my thing
Yes. Big Pinot Grigio and Chianti fan.
Would be interesting to see this broken down by gender.
Neither my wife nor I are drinkers. But she'll get a glass of wine most of the time we eat at a nice restaurant, probably a couple times a month. I might get a mixed drink a half dozen times a year.
I think I’ve had a couple of Vernaccia wines, but no Vermentino nor NebbioloYes. Big Pinot Grigio and Chianti fan.
do you like vernaccia and vermentino for Italian whites... Nebbiolo for reds?
No, it gives me terrible headaches and hangovers.
FWIW... my initial stab at a What's Normal website required signup (and login). This was done to have profile information attached to each vote which gave the site the ability to report on not only "overall" normality, but targeted normality (based on age, gender, marital status, geography, etc). Grand plans...Would be interesting to see this broken down by gender.

Understood. I meant in society at large.Would be interesting to see this broken down by gender.

For better or for worse, if it's on this forum, it's already essentially broken down by gender and age.

Same for me. Add in we are members of a local winery (largely to entertain out of town guests) so we get our monthly bottles as part of the membership. But as we are not consistent drinkers we will go months without picking up our bottles and thus have 20+ bottles on hand at the house most days.I wouldn't consider myself a wine drinker but I will drink wine. I live in an area that has wineries all over the place. Going wine tasting is a thing a lot of people around here do. I will go for the social aspect and try some wine but it's not something I will order on my own.
It’s interesting to me how beer and liquor are thought of as “manly drinks”, while wine is more feminine, at least in this country. Seems like a pretty arbitrary distinction, but I’m sure there’s a historical explanation for it.
Yeah, there’s definitely a socioeconomic component. Still, my wealthy male friends tend to drink a lot more beer and booze, while their wives consume wine.It’s interesting to me how beer and liquor are thought of as “manly drinks”, while wine is more feminine, at least in this country.

Interesting, I might have that perspective with Rosé - which is not a dig @General Malaise, I enjoy it as well! But in general I've never considered wine as being feminine. Maybe it's having lived my entire adult life in or around wine regions (just outside Napa and Sonoma and now in the Willamette Valley), or maybe it's just because my dad has always been a wine drinker.
