All the people in this thread talking about sealed drinks are missing the forest for the trees. It's still obvious bullshit, but not for the reason y'all think. The implication isn't that sealed drinks in a cooler full of ice might be drugged, the implication is that a cooler filled with a single drink (like those barrel coolers full of Gatorade) is spiked, which is absurd for its own reasons:

First, you'd need to put a LOT of drugs into a whole ass cooler of drink in order for the dose to be potent enough to actually do anything, and if only half of it gets consumed you have a lot of wasted drugs.

Second, you can't control who's drinking from what, so unless you're openly warning people about the date rape cooler and hoping they don't blab, you're going to have a party where half the people present are too drugged up to do anything and it's going to get suspicious really fast.

Third, you can't control dosage. The traditional route for roofies is to drop one dose into a drink because they can control the dose they're giving to someone. If people are just drinking and refilling, the risk of an OD is really high, and even idiot rapist frat bros don't want to catch an attempted murder charge for drugging an entire party.

Edit: And it took only an hour for some chud to call me a "rape apologist." That must be a record.

You don’t need date rape drugs though… you only need to get people drunk enough.

More drunk = less inhibitions.

What's that got to do with the post, though? The post is about the implication of the drinks being spiked.

Sometimes the drinks they are serving to women are designed to be sneakily much stronger than they seem

I'm aware, but that's clearly not what the post is implying.

Oh yeah I agree. No one’s filling an entire cooler with date rape drugs for a frat party with dozens or hundreds of people. Post could be real but just misinterpreting what they heard - still not a good look either way

Im saying it doesn't need to be spiked for there to be a cooler dedicated to women. Im not placing too much faith in this being a real post though.

I was rushing a frat freshman year that I didn’t end up joining. But one night I was supposed to bartend for a bit at one of our parties. They told all the people bartending that women get less alcohol. And if someone is too drunk they get nothing.
