Alchoholism is not genetic ! you delelope your own taste ! but alchol tolerance is a genetic thing ! trust me can sit down and drink 3 or 4 pitchers and still be fine ! little bloated but fine ! ofcours big drinkers on both sides of the family !Www@FoodAQ@Com

Smirnoff's don't have a lot of alcohol so that's the reason you weren't that tipsy!. Yeah, if he is an alcoholic there's a higher chance you could become an alcoholic then there would be if he wasn't!. Don't worry too much about it though, just be careful when you drink!. Don't go overboard or party too much!.



Or no, not even that!. Just make sure you don't start to drink on a regular basis!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Some will say yes and some will say no

If your mother was an alcoholic and drunk while carrying you then probably yes!.

The big problem is not genetic, its in ones formative years, seeing and witnessing excessive drinking at a young age can programme the mind to think that it is the normal thing to do and so one can fall into the same way of lifeWww@FoodAQ@Com

i know exactly what you are thinking!. YES alcoholisms is genetics I am 10th generation of Alcoholics and it has all been through 2 family lines!. so i am pretty much F*c^ed if i want to stop drinking!. good luck with yours thoughWww@FoodAQ@Com
