In men, the ability of alcohol to stimulate greater release of dopamine and affect parts of the brain that play a role in regulating pleasure and addiction. Even though the amount of alcohol you drink the same, but the effect is still more powerful in men, so the risk of men to continue his drinking became larger.
 

In their research, experts from Columbia and Yale University compared the effects of alcohol consumption in a group of male and female college students who like to drink alcohol.
