My FH had his bachelor party over the weekend and ofcourse they went to a strip club and ofcourse I filpped out. Am I the only one who hates the mere thought? A lot of my girlfriends find it so easy to brush off, but not me! Can't stand it!!!

Personally, it doesn't faze me in the least little bit. Strip club, no strip club - whatever. I just want him to have a good time with his friends and come back in one piece.

personally it wouldn't bother me if they went to one, FH is pretty responsible but it really isn't his thing anyway and i think that him and the boys are going to play golf and then do a pub crawl.

I should show DH these threads so he realizes how good he has it.

I am with you girls- Jake has no idea how good he has it- I was upset when I thought he wasn't getting a stripper- I wanted him to have the whol bach party experince- I know he hates strippers- but it's tradtion!

It's a man thing, I don't care.

Re: How does everyone else feel about this?

My fh's brother/best man had a stripper come to the hotel they were at in Atlantic City- I knew about it... I was not thrilled but I figured what they heck, my father, his father, and a gm who is my best guy friend will all be there, plus I trust FH 100%...it was one girl for like 45 minutes, with a bouncer there- he even said it was nothing special- they tried to embarrass him (which happens easily)
I actually saaw pictures of her- she had an okay face but was NOT in the least attractive- even her body was just okay-

I too went to a strip club- time square hunks and I had a fabulous time-

It is not like either of us are 'into' it, we arent but it was a good time ...if he were going every single weekend- or even month- I would be angry BUT this was the first time since he was like 18/19 years old.

Re: How does everyone else feel about this?

I totally agree. It makes me feel uncomfortable. I wish my FH didn't want to do anything like that for his bachelor party, but there is nothing we can do about it. You are definately not alone!!!!! I think we can trust our FH til no end, but I am still going to be uncomfortable with him being around naked women(or not completely naked) trying to show him their stuff.

It's so cliche and immature...My FH doesn't want to do the Stripper thing at his but unfortunately it's usually one of their childish friends who insist...

It doesn't bother me. I know my FH well enough and trust him. JMO

It does not bother me either. It is not reality, I am, and really I have no problem with the guys going out & letting off a little steam.

my FH knows if he goes to a strip club for his bp I will call off the wedding without second guessing my actions. He can explain to everyone why we are not getting married I'm sure his grandma would love to hear that one.

I don't like the idea of them either - but I've kinda accepted that he will probably go for his bp.

A few things that help make me feel ok with it: he doesn't normally go to them, he's said that they are most embarassing for the groom, and I would rather him go to a strip club then have a stripper come to the house/hotel/whatever. At least in a club it is a controlled setting.

I agree with everything you wrote!

Re: How does everyone else feel about this?

I really hate them. they are so gross. even trusting my guy, i wouldnt want him going to one of those places. i do not see the need for it.

Re: How does everyone else feel about this?

The age old debate, I will tell you what I say in all of these strip club threads,

If I did not trust DH , I would not have married him

If you don't want him going to a strip club, there IS a trust issue (people will debate that I am sure )

I would NEVER tell my DH what he can and cannot do, just like he would never tell me what I can and cannot do...

IMHO, it is not worth fighting over
