Based on gender how much alcohol can one consume before getting drunk?

Answer 1

it depends on how much you weigh, say you way around 140 it would take 7-9 beers to get teen drunk. hard liquor it would take 5-7 shots. and it also depends on how old you are


To be considered drunk its 2 beers

It takes 1 beer to make you tipsy!, and 1 and 1/2 to get arrested for drunk driving! So, stick to 2 beers, and really if you are a teen, you may want to not do this because you are a teen and you need to have fun doing kid stuff for now.

Answer 2

That can't be answered based on gender alone, except to say that -- all else being equal, which it rarely is -- a given amount of alcohol will make a woman more intoxicated than a man because of women's reduced production of the enzyme that metabolizes alcohol.

Other variables would include whether the person is accustomed to drinking, their body weight, and whether they have developed a tolerance to the drug -- one of the first signs of an addiction -- and even race.

In general, just about everyone will be legally intoxicated if they drink three drinks in one hour, less if the drinks have more than .6 ounces of alcohol in them.
