Alcohol usage is frowned upon by people in many of the predominantly Muslim countries. But a recent survey by PewResearch revealed two-in-ten or fewer in Japan, Britain, Canada, Australia, Germany, the United States, Poland, and France say it is morally unacceptable.
In fact, in Japan, 66% say drinking is morally acceptable. Meanwhile, 44% of Russians say alcohol use is morally wrong, but this view is more prevalent among women (52%) compared to men (36%).
