Two pints and you're a binge drinker, according to media reports of new Australian health guidelines.
Australian National Council on Drugs executive officer Gino Vumbaca says people would agree with the guidelines - where the equivalent of two pints - or three glasses of wine - in one session constituted a "binge session".
"When you have a big trucker up against a small woman, it's difficult to come up with meaningful guidelines that take them both into account. That's why I think the guidelines should only be thought of as a guide rather than being taken literally."
