The issue that's being discussed here is not that you should drink alcohol. It's that the mindset that usually causes people to never drink alcohol is not a good one to have. He ends the short telling of friends who ruined their lives for alcohol in the end guys.

judgmentcallpodcast covers this. Partying can promote social health.

When we were teenagers in the late 70's it was very common for us to have "keg parties". We had so much fun! We talked, laughed, danced and generally hung out. Compared to todays kids who rarely socialize in person, I'll take my teen years with the alcohol any day. We all turned out ok.

i never drank til i was 21 and so glad i didnt have people around me that did. i didnt need to "break rules" to experience a wide array of people and life circumstances.

[Paellain]

This is gold. Every teenager should learn this. I was the first one. Too inhibited, passive, basically a coward.

[chrisurban]

Eek I’m so glad I didn’t hear this as a teenager!

[KGS]

"They never drank. They weren't good.They're just cowards" Lol

[gregoryowen]

Drinking alcohol was once expected at most social events. I didn't like the taste of most beers and wines, but i had to pretend to because of peer pressure.

[Klingon]

In MBTI, SJs tend to enforce the rules. SPs tend to break them. NFs like to bend the rules for a good cause and NTs rewrite them after finding all the loopholes.

[claudiamanta]

I got myself almost in alcoholic coma when I was a teenager because I didn’t drink alcohol. Not nice. I am old now and I still don’t think that drinking alcohol as a means to socialise is a good idea.

[pitfighter]

Youre not a coward. Youre smart.
Its wise to not do something dangerous and stupid.

Dont drink. Ever.

The elderly breed fools to plunge into unknowns for them.

The elderly breed fools to work for them.
They would bave you prove yourself here...
Having created you insufficiency by removing your fathers ....

The elderly use the young to live longer.

Don't give yourself over to miserable people.

[gregoryowen]

Reality is for those who can't handle alcohol.

[calitune]

drinking down yes but drug use up I would guess.

[gregoryowen]

So the well-behaved "good kids" need to Party, just not too much.

[paweplaszczyk]

Speaking so broadly about this fenomenon is a big misconception. It is obvious that balanced life is the best way to develop. But it doesnt mean you cant have fun or party and socialize without alcohol. "People who didnt drink alcohol in his high school are cowards". It is so subjective reasoning. In my opinion he himself regrets drinking alcohol when he was younger and he is trying to justify his decisions. If he is giving a piece of advice to peaple, then why is he guided by feelings. It all sounds like he is belittling teetotalers. I really support him on many issues, but this claim is not something I agree with.

[pitfighter]

This is one time i am utrerly opposed to Jordan Peterson

[gregoryowen]

Mormans and Muslims never drink alcohol as it is forbidden in their religion and look at how they usually turn out. 😮

[grstginge]

Go to prison and then follow rules, thanks jordan

[Mr_Hewitts_Psych_Class]

I agree a lot with Jordan but he seems like he has his words and/or thinking twisted here

This might sound crazy, but Im too good at socializing. In my head, "why do people need alcohol to socialize?". Being social comes very easy for me, but People liked me too much and is actually a huge problem in life. Many people obsess over me. When I was in the military where supervisors which have way too much power over their employees will literally screamed and severely punished me for not sitting with them at lunch or go to their parties. It is like a famous entertainer who have his or her craziest fans having complete control of the entertainer's life. I thought I was a normal guy, but people really notice when Im not there. They get super offended when dont to every single event. I cant go to every single event because I need to rest sometimes. People get super jealous of me too. People see me as a treat to their close friendships. Other People liked me so much that they get really frustrated that Im not show that crazy amount of like back and it comes out as raw anger. It is crazy. My former supervisor in the military would completely abused the crap out of me and they saw me again after a few months after I transfer or they transfer and acted like were bestfriends. Hell no! I let them know I dont like them. Even the people who are level headed who i really like, when i told them i have to leave, the look of saddness in their eyes. I acutally became an introvert and only talk to my wife and kids. There is work, but now I can quit. They also get super heartbroken or spiteful after I leave. I thought "Didnt people have left before? Why are they so upset?" I will 100% leave if I get a hint of it. I know what happens when I stay from the military. I avoid most people now because they become so obsessed with me. Crazy. There is a thing of being too likable. I didnt think it was possible too until I experienced it.
