In case you were unaware; a real martini has nothing to do with vodka. It is gin poured into a glass previously laced with dry vermouth. So, it's straight gin. With olives and olive juice (if you like 'em dirty).

add to the list of girliness: anything containing redbull.

It really is a shame that gin is little more than excess Pine-sol production with the color removed.


Ooooo, them's fight'n words!

that is because you wear a skirt.

This coming from a dude with a girly icon as an avatar. Oh the irony....

I'm not sure how beer drinkers can call a lemon drop girly.
Beer: 3-6% alcohol
Lemon drop: at least 20% alcohol

I guess my mancard will be permanently revoked, but the other night, I ordered a rasberry lemon drop :Q
It had to be around 30% alcohol because it was lemon vodka and some kind of raspberry liquer. No extra lemon juice or anything.

Personally, I wouldn't consider anything that's at least half vodka to be girly. Wine coolers and fuzzy navel's on the other hand...

Bombay Sapphire goes way better with juice than Pine-sol, no matter what the black lady tells you in the commercials

Screw whoever says anytyhing, drink what you want and have a good time.

Mojitos are certainly not girly...anything considered a good drink by Hemingway is automatically excluded from the girly list.

No. Hemmingway is famous for loving daiquiris too. Are you going to say that a daiquiri is NOT a girly drink?

Thought so.

I rest my case.

Yeah...and there's also a very good chance Hemingway liked little boys...so what does his beverage taste have to do with this debate?

every female in my family and most of my female friends drink beer.

Gotta love Georgia :laugh:

Same applies for Texas :thumbsup:

You are what you drink. I drink Bud Light and straight vodka, exemplifying my heritage of both Alabama and Eastern Europe.

Hmm. Is a screwdriver considered a girly drink then? I don't usually consider them girly when I see them ordered but some people here are defining anything with fruit juice as a girly drink.

Depends on the alcohol to juice ratio as previously mentioned.

But if you're out at a bar, you have little or no control over how the bartender decides to mix it. From a economic standpoint, it makes more sense for him to pour you more juice and less vodka, and so he probably will.
I am overthinking this.

Hmm. not really; it's just ghetto. Or simply lazy. Or you've run out of kahlua, tonic, whatever...and you need to pound some vodka. It's good in a pinch. ...just don't order at a bar

Only if the bartender is also the owner. Someone working for a measly wage is usually more interested in making tips than increasing the profits of the owner.
