The Bachelors Party
By: Lesley-Ann Graham
You’re about to be a married man. It’s your last few days, if not the last night of being free. All the boys are around to commiserate and celebrate the last night of being single! So they plan a night doing everything you’re going to miss once you say “I do”. They bring you to a place where you can drink ’til you can’t remember anything and have a woman (or women) to entertain you.
Of course, this too is changing (thankfully, for the brides!)
Some grooms don’t want to be debauched before their wedding. The new trend seems to be for the boys to go out and get physical like playing football and having some beers. Sometimes, the friends of the bride and groom even have the bridal shower and the bachelor party in the same place. They celebrate some portions separately, then just merge toward the end. This way the boys won’t have to sit through the giggling of the girls over the presents and dainities and they get to enjoy the food.
Of course, you may still opt to go to a strip club instead of a poker game. You get the drinks and get to see naked women. Of course, naughty boys may try to send one of the naked women into a room with you. Be careful! This is dangerous territory. Think of the consequences before jumping in. If you do find yourself giving in, it does give you something to think of. It may be best to call off the wedding. After all, marriage is supposed to be forever. If you can’t be faithful and committed to your fiance now, better to call it off before you end in divorce.
