I'm kind of shocked that no one has mentioned this and/or gave this guy shit about it but... your first drink is at 21? Dude there is not one person I know that hasn't got drunk by the age of 16, AT LEAST 
I was 18 the first time I got drunk.
Me too. The summer after high school. Didn't really drink much except for holidays until I was in college though.
I didn't get drunk until I was 18 and in college. My neighbor Buffys' Halloween party + keg of Rolling Rock = Drunk Snake.

Wow. American teenagers lead sheltered lives.
I suppose the fact that you can do a lot of drugs in high school makes up for it, though.

Yes. Choosing not to drink means we were "sheltered."

I was under the impression that you guys weren't drinking much as teens because booze isn't very freely available to the underaged.
If I'm wrong, then feel free to substitute "well-behaved" for "sheltered," if you prefer.

Why should people give him shit about not drinking before a certain age? I've never understood this mindset.
I didn't drink until I was 22, and had no desire to do so beforehand. Some of my friends who are over 30 still have never had a drink, and probably never will.
