Beer Goggles

Researchers in England rounded up some folks in London pubs and gave them Breathalyzer tests and showed them photos of people. The thinking is that beer goggles is a physical phenomenon, whereby alcohol takes away our ability to detect symmetry or balance. This is worse for women than for men. So my followup theory is that women actually have a worse case of beer goggles and drunk judgment, whereas men are more likely to take the excuse. Unfair but probably not untrue.
