Young College Girls are Drinking More and Wearing Less!

  • Posted on October 17, 2009 at 11:31 pm

Researchers have found that college girls are drinking a lot more and wearing a lot less at college parties than ever before.

The new research has been published in the Thursday edition of the journal Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research. The researchers went to 66 different college parties to try and get a feel for what college life was all about in the modern era.

He stated that “One of the most surprising things to us was the theme-party finding that women drank more at these. We started going to theme parties like toga parties or costume parties, with highly sexualized themes and with the women wearing not very much.”

“It was surprising that at one of the places we visited the women actually out drank the men; we’re not exactly sure why. It could have something to do with fact that they aren’t dressed.”

The results of the study show that 61.3% of those who responded to the survey stated that they were at a party in college to socialize. 45% were there to have fun and be motivated, while 40% were there to simply get drunk.

21% were trying to meet a sexual partner.

The basic premise here is that at college parties it is no longer the guys tearing their shirts off and getting drunk, it is the girls doing it more than ever.
