Not only this subject, but in my opinion discussions that begin with health and moderation can go downhill to prohibitionist sermons and advocacy of Nanny State imposition by some of their beliefs about vice and virtue.
Morality in other words.

I’m sure (because I’ve heard it) that in the USA kilt wearing might meet someone’s definition of “improper” behavior.

Behavioral judgments can be a slippery slope.
Behavioral judgments codified in law in my opinion have a mixed record.

Larry, this is exactly why I suggested that a topic such as this one might be better suited to other forums.

Hey, my thread right? Can we close it down before it scoots off in the wrong direction?

Thanks.

I'll just try and get my bit in before it does get closed. There's nothing new about the Scots, or the Irish, being drinkers. I say we should all live and let live. Nobody thinks that alcoholism is wonderful, or drunken riots for that matter, but with respect I doubt if non-drinkers have much conception of what constitutes normal social drinking or why we do it.
