    Young (1977) examined identities of the different substances and recognised that there was gender attached to them. Young (1977) explained within his chapter, that ‘many of the plants, chemicals, or substances used, furthermore, have male or female qualities attributed, or their cultural use or proscription is gender specific’ (cited by Young 1977) (MacDonald, 1994, pg 62). A similar theory has been exercised by Smith and Grey (1983) from when they evaluated ‘The Policy Studies report on the Metropolitan Police’ and found that ‘mascu-line cult’ (McDonald, 1997, Pg 62) was present within the police force as a majority of the CID detectives were heavy beer drinkers.
