Why do folks who drink alcohol feel the need to harass others who choose not to? (hexbear.net)

Out on the beach for a while today, i ran across two people waving for attention; turns out they were stuck right past the '4wd only past this point' sign. I got them unstuck, made sure they didnt need anything else and was about to head on my way. One of the women offered me a couple road sodas, and i declined- i havent drank alcohol in about 13 years and have no inclination to start again. The other woman actually scoffed, and said 'what man isnt going to accept a beer from a couple women on the beach, are you a f-slur?'

So i left.

Why the fuck do people who drink alcohol act this way around people who dont drink?

There's a saying that behind every f-slur there's an h-slur.

Obviously these ladies f-slur less otherwise they know. Pity them. Anyways sounds like a couple a jerks who are not fun to be around. Dogged a few bullets there . Always respect people's decision not to.

Sorry, what's the H-slur?

H-slur might be considerd misogynistic.

"Hag"

In this manner it's endearing, as in a woman confidant. Like Will and Grace or Karen.

Ahh, thank you! I didn't know that at all.

I thought it was an age-based slur.
