Fruit in men's drinks: girly?

[Che]

Say you're a male (if you aren't), and you're out at a bar on a Friday night. You order a beer and the bartender asks you if you want a lemon in it. Would it be considered girly to say yes?

This goes for limes, and any other types of drink/fruit mixes as well.

I usually get a boulevard wheat (because its on tap where I live and it's good on tap) and it comes with lemon, and I accept. And then I eat the lemon.

I went with dudes are too manly. Ordering fruit in your beer is like... well...

IT'S LIKE THIS!

[Furore]

It's only girly if the guy drinkin it is girly. Clint Eastwood can get away with it.

When a hardass wants his damn Mai Tai, it better be looking pretty damn elaborate.

[loaf]

Only beer you should be asking Lime with is a Corona.

Anywho, I don't think it's girly at all. Have your drink how you bloody want it. Fruit is just... fruit.

This is girly though:

[Dodie16]

I find that in any situations such as this, it's always important to ask yourself one very good question:

What would Jesus do?



Anyway, who cares if there's fruit in a drink? If you think it makes it taste better, go ahead. You gotta get your recommended daily amount of fruit intake somehow.

[Jin]

Girly or not, Strawberry Daiquiri flavoured Bacardi Breezers are delicious.

[Sasquatch]

No fruit.

Sure, Clint Eastwood could get away with it. But he wouldn't have to.

Now, of course, there are exceptions. A lemon or lime with a shot of tequila? Acceptable. Eating a cherry? Acceptable.

Having a piece of fruit in your drink? Not acceptable.

One could say, "well Corona is supposed to have a lemon in it." To which I respond: "Why the hell are you drinking Corona?"

Seriously. You don't see Guinness or PBR commercials with fruit in them, do you? Nope. No cherries, no lemons, no limes, no oranges.

The one exception is if the entire point of the drink is to look girly. Like the Cosmopolitan my friend ordered me at Applebee's the other night. Of course, I still laughed -- whether I drink it or not, whether I order it or not, a man with fruit in his drink should be laughed at.

[Josh_R]

I don't think that it is girly, but I sure as hell wouldn't. Only place a lime needs to be is next to my shot of tequilla. Hoho today is thursday half off drinks at The Beaver...They don't card either...

That's probably the best name I've heard for a bar that allows underage people into ever. Actually that's probably the best name I've heard for a bar.

[Meier Link]

Take it you have never heard of "deadwood" then, its (was?) a bar near the campus the university of Iowa.

Anyways to be on topic. Yes, I think it is girly. Even worse is the ones that come prebottled with some kind of fruit juice in them. Bud light lime anyone? ****ing sick.

I don't use any type of fruits in my beer almost makes me sick thinking about ruining a good beer like that. And before you ask, yes I have tried them like that.

That just reminded me of a fruit beer. Fruli.

It's yummy, if not a little filling and sickly if you drink it quick/have more than "just a few".

Does anyone consider fruit beer to be girly as well then?

[Pete]

I think there are only 2 times when it's acceptable. Tequila and Blue Moon. Corona is just plain nasty. If you're putting fruit in any other beer, I'm gonna have to worry about you.

Seriously, Blue Moon on tap with an orange wedge is pretty phenomenal. Then again, I usually go to the bars with PBR tallboys and shots of Jack.

And if a girl is drinking PBR and doing shots of Jack, it can only mean one of two things. She's trouble or I'm gonna wind up marrying her.

And stuff like Smirnoff Ice is girly. No doubts about it.

[Walter Sobchak]

Throughout the local bars, I am known as Mr. Cranberry and Vodka. So no, it is not feminine.

[loaf]

Cranberry and Vodka is one of the only ways I drink Vodka, it has to be with gray goose though.

[Maridia]

You can get away with it. I tend to find the idea of being macho funny especially when drinking. You wanna fight **** and piss like a race horse.

I have drinks that normal to manly and I like girly drinks too. You're drinking to get drunk not put on a show. Blue moon needs an orange just like I like my gin and tonics with lime. Why? Cause it tastes better. At the same time a jack and coke is acceptable. But I'll take a white Russian (aka caucasin soviet) over it anyday.

I've seen people who won't dare touch a magarita or a pina colada in front of a girl but in turn piss themselves from having so much hard liquor and losing control.

Will I take the strange look from people for my lime over urine soaked pants? Yes

and corona with lime doesn't mean you're fruity. You just like the taste of Mexican piss in a bottle. But that's their prerogative.

[Che]

Remember that time when it was cool to drink corona? Or was I just hanging out with the wrong crowd?

Boulevard is a local Kansas City beer, so most of you might not know what that is. Having a lemon in your boulevard is like having the orange in Blue Moon, only Boulevard is better than Blue Moon.

Smirnoff Ice isn't really girly as much as it's just for pussies, or people who don't drink often.

Props.

My sentiments exactly. The majority of my drinks are straight, mainly because I can't be bothered to go to most bars or actually buy all the ingredients.

But who the hell would say no to a carribean Pina Collada or a Mai Tai or anything with rum in it, for that matter?

That said...outside of sours, bitters, lambic, Rum mixed drinks...I don't drink fruity drinks. But I don't shun them because I think they would endanger my masculinity, for chrissakes. If your masculinity is that frail and dependent on stereotypes, then you definitely shouldn't touch fruity drinks...lmao.

[Alpha]

Lemon/lime in a Corona = summer.

But what about a strawberry in a glass of wine? Soaks up the alcohol, then you eat it, which sort of defeats the purpose, but it's damn good. I don't see how gender comes into it at all. Who's telling me what I can and can't put in my drink?
