Would You Buy Alcohol Made 'For Women Only?'

It's a man's world, so the saying goes. But one company has set out to rectify the unjust disparity in liquor marketing between the sexes. Wait, what? A French company, By Necker, is selling "GIRL," a liqueur created with just the ladies in mind. It's a blend of premium vodka and Cognac flavored with lychee and raspberry. Yum!

Do women need their own specialty designer drink? By Necker certainly seems to think so. Their website claims that "A few inventive chefs bring in exciting new culinary experience. A few bold vineyard owners operate a revolution in the wine industry. Yet in the spirits department ... a desperate void. Most of the products have been around for half a century, inflame palate, head and stomach lining."

But GIRL (and their other designer drinks) provide "smooth and gentle alcoholic beverages with sensual aromas, low sugar content, as an apertif or for nightlife, in distinctly contemporary packaging, for authentic, self-respecting seekers of new emotion."

Wow, they pack a lot into what looks like a giant jug of Pepto Bismol! What do you think? Elaborate marketing gimmick or is By Necker really filling a "desperate void" in the ladies booze department?

    Ummm I am a girlie girl but also a complete tomboy and I think liquor just for girls is a great idea. I go shopping all the time and spend hours to get ready and also enjoy getting muddy and 4wheeling

    Ok. What's the point? Women can drink anything they want. Just like men. So why make alcohol only for women?

    Nope. The idea of mixing anything with cognac kind of sounds horrible to me. The berries and the vodka sound ok together, though.
    Gender drinks? Asinine idea.

    I think... halfway. Alcoholic beverages usually are a bit strong for girls, but I also think that men could benefit from not having 40 proof drinks that will have them over the legal blood alcohol limit in a trice. But guys get Yorkies, so time for a girl's only treat;
    yorkie bar

    By the way; Yorkies taste goooooooooooooooooood.

    WTF... women for years have been crying the "equality tears"...now there are all these questions about women's drinks, salons just for big women...why did out ancestors burn their bras just to have them strapped on again by all of these "women Only" type of things.

    I don't like Jack but I agree! This is a stupid idea. The closest thing I've seen to a "men only" liquor is Gentlemen Jack lol And I'd drink it anyway. I don't drink for taste. I drink to get drunk. And that's why I don't drink much!
