Yea cuz you won't look like a douchebag drinking red wine. lol...
To answer the question, you shouldn't deprive yourself of life's pleasures for bodybuilding. There are more important things (like being happy). Drink, eat junk food, at times when you really want to which shouldn't be that frequently.

you are young bro. have some drinks with your buddies, go to the bar/party, be social as shit, have the balls to talk to some hottie you mite not otherwise, have anonymous sex. dont sacrifice your prime time to party unless you are seriously thinking about competing, which in taht case you may want to rethink your life anyway.

Yes exactly! I tell you what, try it go out and have a few drinks and if you dont like it then dont do it anymore. I have known plenty of people who tried alchohol and just dont like the tipsy feel....and thats OK! If you find you do like to drink then make it an every so often type thing.
I mean I'm no Doc but I think I can say that alchohol, while it has a lot of destructive potential, is not going to run through your system ravashing and eating away at your muscle upon occasional ingestion. Bottom line is you need to discover whats right for you.

Hey bro i play rugby every saturday, and its a very social sport i.e. all teh guys (sometimes opposing teams together), go out for drinks together afterwards.
This can b very messy if ur travelling bak from a game on a bus trip. I try to keep the alcohol down but it can be hard.
So i usually have a few drinks each sat night. I do however bust my ass 3 times a week in the gym + rugbytraining on a tuesday and thursday and then game on sat, so sometimes i think 'im only human and i deserve to unwind with the boys'
But as i get more and more serious im deciding to cut back more and more each week.
Gotta find the balance between getting consistent bodybuilding results and being 'human' and having fun u know.
davie
P.S. i was 21 last may, i know what ur on about, i suggest a party week or month (may was a big one for me) but after that u go bak to normal.
