I'm worried about Men

12Next →View All

YorkvilleBeerLover Permalink
YorkvilleBeerLover Attended a Bachelor Party this weekend. It came together last minute but I'm really worried men are becoming really soft in 2012. Men of the 1950's are laughing at you.

Seriously - no girls, my fiance or wife doesn't allow it.

No change of clothes so your wife/fiance doesnt smell the stripper vanilla cinnamon perfume?

Did you really let that stripper give you a hickey?

2 of my buddies were kicked out of their homes for the day for a few hours of fun they had the night before.

What is wrong with the United States of America?

I'm sorry - I grew up in a kinder, gentler nation where men were men - we threw ourtragous bacherlor parties and we shut our mouths about it. When did it become ok to commiserate with your wife about the exact details of "last nights fun".

That's it - I'm going back in time to find some real men! I am done.

I, for one, am glad men are no longer "real" men.

I know what went on in those days. I've seen Mad Men. Okay, I only watched the first episode, but.....it was still enough for me to come to this informed conclusion.

johnnyd @YorkvilleBeerLover - but does the fact that you are worried about men make you less of a man yourself? Worrying is for ninnies.

walstib Permalink
walstib 1950's women wanted to express outrage about their husbands hanging with hookers but weren't allowed to because it would get them beaten, and back then claims of being beaten only resulted in more beatings.

What the OP describes is actually progress, not regression.

TWO WORDS.....Social Media

.... you know someone will take pictures on phone and text, tweet, post to face book, my-space,
or whatever media they think will make them cool...and blab about every moment with lack of respect to the "Man Code"...
Also, people getting married these days are late 20's early 30's or older and have more to lose then the "Men" of the 50's that were marrying at 18 and could get away with just about anything....

welcome to the 21st century

Having married a former stripper I have never had these issues.

YorkvilleBeerLover I'll give you one tidbit
I had the best rack of lamb ever - way too much sangria - I was asked by an officer of the law if I wanted to go to jail or spend the next 3 hours in the ER. I chose Plan B.

The best part was I had a dougourt and battie in my front pocket the whole time and didnt get popped! Thank god for making bad decisions! and good LUCK!

YorkvilleBeerLover Re: the whole stripper thing. I've been over that racket for some time. I worked the door at a Strip Club in Brick/Lakewood NJ for a year when I was young....much like the time I finally got bored of Carvel Ice Cream when I worked there for 3 years - I got bored so strippers.

I don't like to give away my hard earned loot for a thrill. Saturday I did - and it was fun.
The funniest/worst part of the evening may have been that I had a horrible condition of Pink Eye - so I didnt let any girl close to me, and kept warning them of my contagious condidtion. I'm beginning to think that is also why the officer didn't want to get too close. Imagine the horror of a drunken man with a pussy eye. :)

Its all in how you drink it. If you slam three bottles worth of it and end up with another 3/4 of a bottle on your face and shirt, it's definitely socially acceptable at that point. I would suggest supplementing it with vape hits and a 12 pack.

Yes - Officers of the Law need love too. I also called the Nurse. Once really to thank them, but also to maybe generate some facts in an otherwise grey evening.

muggleballs I don't understand why women don't understand that strippers/dancers/escorts don't want your man, they just want his $. It's generally the women who are closer to you (IMO) who want a piece of your happy home. I have a few friends who work in the entertainment industry & only 1 has ever hooked up with someone she met while working & now she's married to an old unemployed wedding DJ & making his child support & alimony payments.
