Another Overused Character Description

[p***@gmail.com]

I am so very tired of many, many authors saying that a character who has rosacea excessively uses alcohol. Please check out this link:

I drink some alcohol; no rosacea. My face bloomed, however, thanks to medication for high blood pressure. Look at athletes like Lance what's-his-name, long-distance cyclist. His entire face is covered. Likewise, marathon runners and on and on.

I'm just tired of this very wrong and tedious overuse of the red nose.

I'm done now.

Me again. Years back, I had a fellow worker who was born with blood-shot eyes and a bit of red on the eye lids; it was genetic.

I think I'm done this time, maybe.

Interesting. I did some further research and found that, while rosacea
is caused by genetics, a rosacea flare-up has many triggers, and alcohol
consumption is one among many known factors.

Sunlight, heat and environmental stress are the three most common
triggers. But there are a variety of foods that can bring it out.

Thanks, Francis, that's why I find it darn tedious and so overused and not really appropriate. So many read this garbage in so many books and decide that anyone with such a face must be an alcoholic.

Can't authors find another, better way to describe alcoholism than something that can be attributed to so many other afflictions? They're just using a nasty easy way.
