Former Coli breh DJ Akademiks believes that 70% of black women are alcoholics. Does he have a point?

Alot of the judgements and generalizations people make about entire groups of people reveal more about their circle than about the actual group.
If you hang out a clubs and bars all the time, you might get the impression that everybody is a drinker because you hang around nothing but drinkers

But its still dumb af to think that 70% of black women have a drinking problem. only 77% of all women are even over the age of 21. That means by his calculation that pretty much all black women of drinking age, (including the elderly) are alcoholics. its impossible.

If you said all women between the age of 21 and 40 were alcoholics, that would only account for 30% to 40%. and that would still be all of them in that age range. Every single one.


Depending on the source, 6-9% of Americans drink everyday. It's wild to even think that 70% of any demographic drinks 7-10 times this number.

Every single beer and liquor commercial would be targeting black people if it was at 70%. We'd be the primary source of income for the entire industry.

I wouldn’t say 70. A strong 55% is more realistic. I’ve met a lot of women especially recently that either don’t drink or drink very lightly. Now if you talking bout weed/edible heads. They all over the place. I think age is a factor too a lot of women in their 20s are probably going to drink more often than women in their mid to late 30s.

55% is a crazy unrealistic number too.

:dahell: Has this fool seen any white women recently? If he's acting like black women have a collective drinking problem, I don't even know what to say about them :hubie:

Yea not trying to throw on the cape here, but I think a lot of American young people in general are alcoholic and have other vices due to depression and untreated mental illnesses
