The Asian Flush: Does anyone have it?

[damnthosejs]

do dark skin asians(cambodians, filipinos, etc) get this too?

[an dee 51o]

Being Korean

No glow for me.

Most of my homies of other Asian ethnicities get this though.

 

[physicx]

im asian and i dont get this

know a TON of people who do though

 

[kidposite]

i get irish flsuh

my Asian friend gets it though

 

[cor23ey]

I'm half and I'm usually good, but it has happened to me few times.

I think it's when my tolerance is low and I drink a lot too fast.

 

[youmadyoubad]

I have this brown stuff on my face that keeps me from getting dedicated. This is how I am able to stay drunk 24/7 without being noticed.

Yep I get it too. Im use to it. It usually takes 2-3 drinks before it starts.

 

[dcortes23]

it is mostly an asian thing that happends. my aunt whose a doctor claims that asains have less tolerance to alcohol because our liver is smaller or something like that

 

[wearinthefourfive]

Oh the asian glow, always funny to see.

 

[the yes guy]

I do, and I'm white. Must be the Irish side...

 

[luong1209]

Nope, I'm one of the exceptions. I don't see the big deal though.

 

[nawlinsjunkie]

Well aren't you just the coolest guy ever!

Yeah, I have it something serious, unfortunately. I usuaully take Pepcid AC or Zantac prior to drinking but it seems that its effectiveness is wearing off..It's still a lot better than drinking without heart burn relief pills, though. If I drink without Pepcid/Zantac, my face becomes hot and red, heart starts going off the wall, headache, and I'm more prone to throwing up quicker. I basically can't enjoy drinking without the pills

white people at house parties get all red too when theyre drunk

hell yes.

*Goes up for five.

 

[bgl2687]

I have it but mine is different. I get flushed off my first beer. It goes away after about 30-45 mins and I don't get red anymore so I just keep drinking on. I also don't get the heart racing or anything, just red around my face and neck. I shall try to pepcid or zantac thing you guys have mentioned though. It does get embarassing at first, but the people I usually drink with already know so it's not a big deal to me.

 

[drew]

nahhh dude.

 

[krazy]

I only get a little blush on my face but it's pretty minor, probably cause I'm dark as hell.

its not as hot in a bar

 

[nicapino]

my friend's older brother claims to be allergic to alcohol, and that he got it from his mom. His solution is to smoke weed. My buddy took after his dad tho, they both can drink like fish.
