Liquor no longer holds the allure it once did for “sober curious” women.
Inside the New Sobriety Movement
“Sober” used to equal alcoholic, which used to equal rehab or AA, followed by—if you were lucky—a lifetime of careful teetotaling. No more. Today, sobriety, like so many things, exists on a spectrum. You’ve got your absolute, old-school nondrinkers.
Even people who don’t consider themselves anywhere near addicted are beginning to question our culture’s deeply ingrained script on alcohol, rejecting the assumption that women in particular need that glass of rioja to wind down, to be “yourself,” to loosen up—or just to feel baseline okay after a day of work or even a day of play. Which could make for an interesting holiday party season.
At each of the Wing’s nine locations, sobriety support-group meetings are led regularly by licensed therapists. The Wing declined to comment other than to say, “As you can imagine, we really try to preserve the sacredness and privacy of that space for our members.” But their existence seems telling.
