Same here. I don't know if it's because of the rebel feeling of drinking illegally or if it's the fact that I'm not a heavy drinker.

Never liked beer myself, whether or not it was chilled.

I remembered this subject was brought up in my house a few weeks ago and my younger cousin (19) was rather excited so at least, he could drink legally if it ever passes through.

Interesting debate indeed, especially when Eda mentioned about being 18 and having to join the army but you need to be 21 to drink. As far as harming your health goes, you can purchase cigarettes when you reach 18 but that thing kills you slowly. I had always wondered about that.

And then I remembered that outside the US, the drinking age is a lot lower than the standard 21.
