      It can actually be a problem for those of us who don't drink alcohol to get the same networking and business opportunities because so much of our social and professional activities revolve around drinking.

          I don't drink alcohol or coffee and try to limit pop/soda (various health reasons). I can barely go to a restaurant let alone networking parties.

          I do agree no one should judge others for not drinking alcohol, but I hate you saying it puts you at a disadvantage. The whole mindset of thinking you’re at a disadvantage is what makes people unsuccessful. If you are confident, educated, and skilled you will succeed!

          Ugh ain't it the truth. I usually just say "I'm an alcoholic" and then maybe the ensuing awkward silence will inspire them TO STOP FUCKIN PRESSURING PEOPLE.

          In Germany there is a lot of pressure on this, as drinking somehow is part of our culture? I really don't like it

          Well, I missed the chance at some tarte Tatin this week because I had a little too much to drink after a conference banquet. It’s just a silly example, but drinking so easily goes from “fun social opportunity” to regrets.

          I became a teatottaler about 10 years ago and I've experienced this. The worst is that some people who do drink take my not drinking as some kind of negative judgement towards their decision to drink.

          should probably ban drinking alcohol.

          Some cultures more than others, for clarification.

          What if tolerance for other opinions found its way into said culture? Is there room for that?

          Well, my question is about if the culture has it already ingrained into it. How would that work with the views Anita has here.

          Original question was "What if it is a part of our culture?" aimed towards Anita. As it is a strong part of, say, Eastern European or Nordic countries.

          So what if it is part of a culture? Then it *is* someone's business if someone else doesn't drink? Then it *isn't* ok for someone not to drink?
