Alcohol is a liquid that is absorbed directly into the blood stream from the stomach. Food is absorbed through the intestines, but it must be broken down first. That is why alcohol is absorbed faster.
Alcohol vapourises faster than liquid because it is a volatile fluid
It's not sexist but purely biological. Alcohol affects woman faster as they have a higher proportion of body fat than men. Fat cannot absorb alcohol so it is more concentrated in a woman's blood. Women have less of the stomach enzyme dehydrogenase that breaks down alcohol. A woman will absorb almost 30% more than a man her own size because of this. Also, more obviously, women are often shorter and lighter than men meaning a higher concentration of alcohol.

nail polish remover contains substances such as acetone that vaporise faster than rubbing alcohol.
Men generally have more muscle mass and higher levels of the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase, which helps break down alcohol in the body. As a result, men tend to metabolize alcohol faster and eliminate it from their system more quickly than women.

Fat or adipose tissue does not absorb alcohol. Typically speaking, 20 percent of alcohol is absorbed in the stomach and 80 percent is absorbed in the small intestine. From there, the alcohol enters the bloodstream and it's effects take place usually within 20 minutes of consuming a drink. The rate of absorption depends on several factors. Notably, the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of drink, the amount of food in a person's stomach (food tends to slow the absorption), and whether or not the alcohol is consumed with a carbonated beverage (carbonation speeds up absorption). All things being equal, alcohol usually has a greater effect on a woman than a man of equal height and weight because a man typically has more muscle and a woman typically has more fat therefore a higher ratio of the alcohol will stay in the woman's bloodstream as opposed to being diluted and absorbed by muscle.

It is believed that wool does dry faster than cotton. Many think that wool does not absorb moisture like cotton does.
