No, the effects are men on average are less intense that for women.
This is because in part due to weight differences. Men on average are heavier than women, the large body size allows for more ethanol and it's byproducts to be distributed throughout the body. Which increases the amount of ethanol required to produce the effects of inebriation.

Why have men got a higher alcohol allowance than women?
Women are affected by alcohol more rapidly because they tend to have a higher proportion of body fat than men. As fat cannot absorb alcohol, it is concentrated at higher levels in the blood. Women also have less of a gastric or stomach enzyme (dehydrogenase) that metabolizes or breaks down alcohol before it enters the bloodstream. Because of this, women absorb up to nearly 30% more alcohol into their bloodstream than men of the same height and weight who drink the same amount of alcohol. Women are also usually shorter and lighter than men, further concentrating alcohol in their blood. Therefore, when women of average size consume one drink, it will have almost the same effect as two drinks do for the average-size man. If women eat little or skip food entirely, that compounds the effects of drinking alcohol.
Does soft drinks reduce the effects of alcohol?

Why are men more likely to be alcoholic?
Genetics have a great deal to do with gender differences. Male pattern alcoholism is a well-known subtype. Overall, men do outnumber women, in terms of rates of alcoholism. However, in one subtype, self-treatment of depression, women are more likely to use alcohol when already depressed, than men. (Part of this is due to the higher rates of depression in women, but this higher rate of depression does not account for the higher proportion of women who abuse alcohol when depressed).
