In the last 25 years, society's attitude toward drinking has become more relaxed and accepting. In the past, drinking was seen as a taboo and was often associated with negative behaviors such as alcoholism and violence. However, in recent years, drinking has become more socially acceptable and is often seen as a way to relax and socialize. Additionally, the legal drinking age has been lowered in many countries, making it easier for young adults to access alcohol. As a result, attitudes toward drinking have become more positive and less judgmental.
