Do you have the impression that alcohol consumption that was pretty normalized a few years back on every social occasion is getting questioned lately? What do you think about it?

In my friend group (in Germany) certainly.
Maybe it’s aging as well, getting more severe hangovers and from less alcohol. But alcohol free beer has gotten so much better in the last 5-10 years, there’s ones where you legit can almost not even tell anymore. And there’s alcohol free wine and champagne as well.
I hear “Why aren’t you drinking?” way less.
More than half of my friends still smoke, though. Not a poor people thing here.
Yeah I got the same impression, Germany here as well.
And I wasn’t sure if it’s just a thing in my friends group and if it has to do with a certain age and not being able to drink because of pregnancy and having kids that normalized it. That’s why I asked.
I heard of the spooky two days hangover by some my age, but never experienced it myself. Still I lost motivation for drinking, somehow.
