There are a lot of people who consider themselves "social drinkers."
They drink when they go out, but they know when to quit and don't drink until they're intoxicated. That's not the same as binge drinking...and binge drinking can have some all-too-real consequences that people don't consider.
Binge drinking can result in a variety of health problems. It can also result in social problems that are just as devastating. How big these problems become usually depends on how often a person goes binge drinking.
