I have a question,
I'm Korean-American and, like everyone else here, I get REALLY red in the face and neck when i drink even half a beer. But I have also found that I have the tendency to get really red in the face/raised temperatures in other situations, like playing casual sports with friends. My face always gets really really red even if I'm just playing laid-back volleyball for an hour. It looks like I ran a marathon, and no one else looks like I do and even though I don't get tired or anything I get really red and sweaty! Is this somehow related to the redness connected with drinking? Is this a result of the asian "glow," or "curse" or is this something else? Does anyone else experience this?
