I had a thing for Paul Johansson. He was in that awful Highlander spinoff. It was weird because I knew his brother, and it made me feel guilty.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Huh. I got this sense among my friends, but I thought that was a self-selection thing. [link]

I'm not surprised, but I don't think that article is doing a good job at distinguishing between different types of drinking.
Drinking daily, if it's one glass of wine, is a healthy choice. And it seems like they are lumping that in quite easily with people having problems or abusing alcohol.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I didn't see it as lumping in so much as that there are (generally) 2 pools of people educated women and less educated women. More educated women are likely to drink. Then, from the pool of educated women who drink, more are likely to admit to an alcohol problem. Also, but perhaps unrelatedly, from the pool of educated women who drink, more are likely to have 1 drink a day.

Also, I would think that educated would have more disposable income, so can spend money on drinking.

But that would dispel the myth of the blue collar beer binger.
