No Shortage of Obese Binge-Drinking Women in the U.S.



According to news reports, American women are in a state of "unsatisfactory" health.
More women are binge drinking, saying they downed five or more drinks at a single occasion in the past month, and fewer are being screened for cervical cancer. Over all, more women are obese, diabetic and hypertensive than just a few years ago, and more are testing positive for chlamydia, a sexually transmitted disease linked to infertility.
In other words, women are getting to be just as drunk, fat, and STD-ridden as men.
