#FRESHOUT9jaUpdate Women Drink More Alcohol In College Than Men - Study

A new study which was done at the Massachusetts General Hospital’s Center for Addiction claims women drink more alcohol in college than men. Women tend to drink more alcohol than men especially after the first year of college while men reduce their level of alcohol intake as they get matured but women maintain the same patterns.
    Research has also shown that white young women with college educations making over $75,000, are more likely to have a period of excessive alcohol consumption. College women tend to test their limit of alcohol more than college men. Not only do women drink more in college, women drink more after getting married as well.
Researchers further examined the lifestyles of married, divorced, widowed women and found that married women consume excess alcohol on a regular basis while happily married men drink less than single male friends and far less than divorced men. In conclusion, men tend to exceed the daily limit while women drink more on a weekly basis.
