Alcohol is just like any other drug it's effects are determined by a person's amount of consumption and their body weight. Most girls weigh less than guys. A person's tolerance plays an important factor also. It may take a regular drinker more than one drink to get drunk while it may take a person who hardly ever drinks only one drink to feel the effects of the alcohol.

Body weight, chemical susceptibility, how much they've had to eat, what they're drinking, how fast they're drinking it...

What would really be weird is if people all got drunk at exactly the same rate despite all the differences.

Women tend to have a higher proportion of fatty tissue than men and, as a result, a lower volume of body water. Equal amounts of alcohol will, therefore, result in a higher BAC for a 60-kg (130-lb.) woman than for a 60-kg man. When you also consider that women are generally smaller than men, the differences in BAC between men and women can be profound. Women should not assume that they have a lower BAC than a man simply because they have had fewer drinks.

Girls dont BECOME horny after they drink but rather leet go of inhibitions regarding sex.Women do enjoy sex almost as much as men do,but when they are in a sober state,they are not as open about their sexuality as men are because they are afraid as being labelled whorish or easy.Drinking removes these inhibitions and allows women to release the sexual beings that they are deep dwon indside

Drunkenness is caused by the concentration of alcohol in body fluids. The more fluids, the more alcohol needed to raise the blood alcohol level to that degree. Big people have more blood than small people.

Also, women require less alcohol to get drunk -- and suffer from Alcoholism more -- than men because they do not produce as much of the enzyme that clears alcohol from the system, which means that the concentration builds up faster and stays high longer.

They don't. What you're probably mistaking as someone getting drunk really fast is actually someone chugging hard liquor every time they go to the bathroom, while in public they've only had a few beers. In fact it is very rare that someone who is considered a "lightweight" or who doesn't hold their alcohol very well will develop alcohol dependency.

Id say women only because after one I'm rat arsed..but i guess its down to the individual and what their drinking..i can handle vodka better than lager which i think is strange but there you go hope that helps.

Men and women probably become intoxicated at approximately the same rate based on body type and tolerance.
