‘Hiding the Label’
More Than Just a Vehicle for Getting Drunk”
Previous research on alcohol consumption and leisure illuminates the ways in which drinking practices-including a preference for "craft" products-are entangled with notions of taste and distinction and linked to classed drinking identities and modes of "serious leisure". However, little is known about how this plays out for light drinkers or short or long-term abstainers from alcohol. These supposed non-consumers have traditionally been located o…
Exploring women’s views toward no-lo alcohol products during pregnancy
Background Pregnancy encompasses a period of socially expected and medically advised abstinence from alcohol. The UK has one of the highest rates of alcohol exposed pregnancies globally. ‘Non-alcoholic and low alcohol’ (NoLo) drinks may provide a viable means to support abstinence or harm reduction. We explore women’s views towards NoLo products including consumption barriers and enablers.Methods We conducted 18 semi-structured photo-elicitation …
Reconfiguring Drinking Cultures, Gender, and Transgressive Selves
There is a well-developed body of research exploring gender and drinking cultures in the Global North (De Visser & Smith, 2007; Griffin et al., 2013; Hutton, 2006; Lyons & Willott, 2008). One might
Not Just Living in the Moment
In contemporary, neoliberal contexts, individuals are compelled to display competent and 'enterprising' selves, to get ahead in 'hustle culture' and to prioritise their personal health/wellbeing and futures. Dominant drinking cultures that normalise binge drinking and 'living in the moment' sit at odds with such values, yet these tensions can be navigated through 'responsible' consumption, whereby consumers can continue to buy into dominant drink…
‘I’ve gone from one extreme to the other’
Background With the United Kingdom experiencing a series of ‘lockdowns’ in 2020 and 2021 that disrupted leisure and socializing, the COVID-19 pandemic presents a 'critical juncture’ which has facilitated alterations to – and reflections on – drinking practices.Methods Drawing on online semi-structured interviews and focus groups conducted between the first and second UK lockdowns, we highlight three stages in the development and maintenance of UK…
Some days I am a lunatic that thinks I can moderate’
This paper contributes to emerging research on online 'positive' sobriety communities, their gendered nature, and the intertwined presence of traditional recovery and neo-liberal discourses in women's accounts. Online sober communities offered alternative spaces of support and allowed for sobriety and sober femininities to be framed more positively than within traditional AA conceptualisations. However, those involved may experience tensions arou…
I don't want to introduce it into new places in my life”
This paper expands a currently very limited evidence base and contributes directly to ongoing debates around 'addition' versus 'substitution' (i.e. whether NoLo products are being used on top of or in place of alcohol). Findings highlight both some of the challenges and opportunities of the expanding market, pointing towards the problematic presence of 'addition marketing' but also highlighting the ways consumers might challenge this and use NoLo…
‘When I open it, I have to drink it all’
Sober Curiosity
Our findings reinstate the importance of recognising social class in public health disease prevention; validating that socially determined factors which shape daily living also shape health outcomes and this results in inequities for women in the lowest class positions to reduce alcohol and related risks
Possibilities and pitfalls? Moderate drinking and alcohol abstinence at home since the Covid-19 lockdown
Sober Rebels or Good Consumer-Citizens? Anti-Consumption and the 'Enterprising Self' in Early Sobriety
Former drinkers in the UK are required to negotiate sobriety in a society that positions consumption (of alcohol but also more widely) as an important part of identity formation. A refusal to consume risks positioning the self outside of the established neoliberal order, particularly as traditional models of sobriety and 'recovery' position the non-drinker as diseased or flawed. As drinking rates decline across western contexts and new movements …
I feel like I have to become part of that identity’
You don’t like to tell them their job but it’s your foot at the end of the day”
Dulling it down a bit’
Drawing on qualitative interviews with young women in the UK, this article highlights how gendered and sexualised negotiations of visibility intersect and continue to be important in the ways in which young women self-regulate bodies and identities to manage risk in the Night Time Economy (NTE). Adopting visible markers of normative, heterosexual femininity on a night out can be understood as simultaneously mitigating against the risks of experie…
