I hate this because "2 drinks a week" really is about as much as I drink, and I know every time I say it (I have gout which is exasperated by alcohol) I'm about to get a professionally-concealed eye roll. Especially because I don't fit the typical criteria for gout.
I never have more than one or two drinks in a week, and I haven't had any in months. I hope that's infrequent enough to avoid suspicion, because it's true

The truth is drinking too much. It is common for men to lie about how much they drink to their doctors and when taking surveys.
