Reputable studies show that very moderate drinking is actually beneficial during pregnancy.

This study is probably junk. Most likely, the male effect is simply a correlate for women who drink, but lie about it, or other societal ills associated with excessive drinking in the family (and which can harm fetal health.)

Shucks, maybe when guys get drunk and have sex, it's more likely they are doing so with a woman with less-than-stellar genetics, if you know what I mean.

Not to mention the fact the moderate to excessive drinking actually increases the chance of pregnancy. The Life Guard of the Gene Pool is off duty during happy hour.
