Yes Sarah,

Alcohol affects women differently than men. The same amount of alcohol can impair women more than men. It is because women bodies have less water than men's bodies, and alcohol mixes with body water, a given amount of alcohol becomes more highly concentrated in a woman's body than a man's body.
