Does drinking MAKE you do things you wouldn't normally do?

Perhaps we could have a healthy discussion on this topic?

I'm pigheadedly of the opinion that alcohol cannot MAKE you do anything you wouldn't do or consider doing or want to do when sober.

To say you are not in control of your actions while drunk, to me means using alcohol as an excuse.

When I drink, I definitely know what I'm doing... and would not do something that goes against my nature... eg, I wouldn't have an affair, I wouldn't kill someone, I wouldn't hurt or molest a child... I don't see how drinking can cause one to do those types of things. I think we have SOME degree of control over our actions when drinking.

What do you think?
