Surprised that no one has mentioned the assumptions that are sometimes made when a woman in her twenties or thirties suddenly starts declining a glass of wine at book club or something when she normally indulges . . . . This was always an obvious early “tell” for the women in my social circle . . . . “Congratulations!!” is not an appropriate response when someone declines a glass of wine, but it always felt a little weird to say nothing!
