A good question dear. I’d like to share a small passage from one of my favorite modern Buddhism books

“Buddhism is often perceived as a moralistic religion. When I was in college, I would tell people that I was a Buddhist, and they would balk at the beer in my hand and the hot girl on my arm. They assumed that Buddhists aren’t supposed to drink or have sex. But Buddhism is not some super-religion that is more puritanical than other religious traditions. Just as in other spiritual traditions, there are some Buddhists who choose to live a life of abstinence and others who do not. In fact, many Buddhists are wonderful drinkers and lovers.”

Just got to remember to keep the right intention in mind :).
