5 drinks? I also read in a different article that it is four for women?
Does anybody else think that is a pretty low amount of drinks to be considered binge drinking?  To me it seems that number would make the vast majority of drinkers binge drinkers.

I never had thoughts like this. I was raised in the wild, wild country. What I was able to consume when I was 17 would possibly be conserned unbelievable in US and I would be possibly crucified.
Very important is that people come to contact with alcohol early, so they have a few incidents and they know where to stop after on. I suppose drinking in pubs is the most intensive part of our culture. It's considered a shame not to control yourself after few hours of drinking, on the other hand the trouble is that there are quite a lot of drunken drivers - that's the worst part.
Our country is 160 litres that makes about 42 gallons of beer/ year per person including kids, women and abstinents.
