Nobody I care about much is telling me I can’t have alcohol or polyamory, and yet I find that my fun does not involve those things. I would appreciate a less normative endorsement of the options you list.
Isn’t the point simply that what’s-most-fun-for-Wednesday might well turn out to involve those things, and that it’s not good for her options to be reduced drastically without good reason?
My apologies… gjm summarized my position quite well. I also listed smoking (which I don’t do), and some more mainstream sexual pleasures… I certainly did not intend a normative (or even a personal!) endorsement.

That’s what I think. ChrisPine’s phrasing implies something stronger.
