Etiological differences of alcohol dependence between males and females have not yet be known, but both environmental and genetic factors have influenced the onset of the disorder. And due to females’ own roles in their families, female alcoholics could produce more effects on their children than male alcoholics could. The effects of alcohol on the body are different between males and females.
