Ok, I'm trying to convince my fiance that I have the right to ask him NOT to go to a stripclub or get a stripper for his bucks night, as he's convinced that it's tradition to do these things as it means it's the last time as a "free man to do so and not get in trouble".
I'm having a hard time justifying this as have had friends before who have opted not to go down that path in order to please their ladies, and themselves, not to mention the fact that it seems to completely contradict the whole point of marriage.
Your opinions are much appreciated as both of us seem to be set in our ways, which isn't helped by both parties being backed up by other friends on the matter.
Are you a gay male?
no, are you?
Cancel wedding, move to tasmania, start gift shop.
not too far from what i was thinking
You're young. Maybe you should wait a while to get married.
Buck's nights are pathetic anyway. If he really wants to have one then he's probably a bit of a dick who shouldn't be a husband anyhow. Srsly.
i've often thought that about the people who have to go to those lengths to do such things, that really seem like a pointless waste of time, energy and money at the end of the night
my personal opinion is that you shouldn't even have to ask him not to do those things. if you do, and you really don't agree with them, then that's pretty shit if he still wants to do it.
i like the idea of a hucks night - joint hens/bucks night anyway. the typical hens/bucks nights make me feel ill with cheesyness & sluttyness.
i'm the same as you blue o, i think a combined hucks night seems to make a lot more sense, not to mention the fact that we can both enjoy all aspects together, regardless of what is thrown at us
does he not like that idea?
I think he wants some exclusive poon tang, if you ask me.
P.M me for best bucks prank ever!!!!!
it's all about the men vs women, and that the "tradition as far back as hundreds of years ago" is to pay women to dance on your lap before you get married
He wants to feel the nouvelle tang on his lips for the last time. Jerkwad. I don't think you can win out by telling him what he should and shouldn't do though. Bad introduction to marriage. And you're still young.
buck's nights have always seemed like such a bogan thing to me, i avoid them like the plague.
what if its the other way around.......where you treat all your pathetic single loser male friends a good night out ...and have none of that lap dancing for yourself..........?
yeh i agree with bee're bees that you can't really win if you're going to tell him what he can/can't do on his bucks night.
i have no bloody idea what you should do really. you can't guilt him into not doing it because that's just emotional blackmail, and i personally would feel really uncomfortable with my husband-to-be getting lap dances just before our wedding.
let us know what happens!
well i did suggest that if he wanted to go to a stripclub, why make it exclusively about the "beginning of marriage" and instead both of us go and enjoy it together, at a time that didn't make it just about that.
i think it's a bit naive to think that you can sit watching your friends get lap dancers and not expect to get any either..
bees do i know you?
oh for gods sake, it's just strippers. it's not like he's asking for permission to go fuck someone else, he just wants to look at boobies for a little bit before a lifetime of our boobies.
lighten up.
our=your. whoops.

I had to go to one of these on Saturday night. In Kings Cross. It was awful. First we went to the KX Hotel where the dj played Africa by Toto and Wham! Then we proceeded to Bada Bing where all the wannabe gangsta Lebs dressed up in their finest Ed Hardy shirts and big gold chains. I stayed begrudgingly till I could take it no more then fucked off home at the magic hour of 3am when the cabs have their changeover. From there I proceeded to see 2 more fights, both involving steroided cunce with fully sick crosses tattooed on their arms and chests with their shrits off. It was fucking wonderful. The next time I'm in that situation I'm throwing myself in front of a bus.
been to a bunch of buck's parties lately
not a single one has had a stripper or a hooker...
come to think of it, i can't remember one that involved stupid hats, strippers, brothels or nudie runs - they've all been great times though!
we're not drooling fuckwits so i don't know why we'd suddenly start acting it on a bucks night...
The last few I've been to have involved paintball... and I'd probably prefer the strippers to be honest.
Don't get me wrong - the guys are awesome and I love them but Kings Cross can eat a big fat cheesy dick.
Well this is it, most of my male friends are married by now, and the bucks parties I went to of theirs were fine, just drunken fun. But this is my sister's fiance's crowd... and he's a nice quiet sort of guy but I fear his mates could be the sort to take things downmarket a notch. Anyhoo, guess I'll do the lunch then disappear.
You will be fine. Generally people seem get all worked up about them and then they turn out to be a bit of harmless fun and evryone wakes up with a headache. I went to a friend's a few months back and we had all the usual shenanigans without overstepping the mark.
Having said that I used to work in a bottlesho/pub that would often have bucks parties in their upstairs very upmarket function room. On quite a few occasions I would bring grog upstairs and there would often be a couple of faux lezzos kissing in a bubble bath while blokes in tucked in chambray shirts would hoot and holler. And as oceloti mentioned yeah the buck did get blown and so did all the boys (one in all in) but they were dirty bogans and I wouldn't think that this would be the norm...
Well, call me a prude, but EW.
ocelotl is a prude.
Ok so I just received an email from the dude who is organising the bucks for my brother's wedding. It goes from Fri at midday to Sun afternoon. WTF? My bro's friends are some pretty vulgar CUB's / yuppies and the thought of spending more than a few hours with them let alone a weekend is pretty godamn painful. Is it rude to opt out?
I got surprised and was taken on a weekend to Tasmania.
Stayed in a cottage outside Peppermint Bay, went to Salamanca Markets, spent the day at MONA, argued voiciferously about MONA afterwards while getting boozed, got outrageously hammered and cooked a shitload of meat and stayed up till all hours watching a doco on Stax records and talking shit.
Plus, we drove through Snug multiple times listening to Cradle of Filth.
Unfortunately Striborg did not deign to make an appearance.
It was fucking awesome. Take note.
sounds like a tops weekend.
chimpass, that is just greedy, I dunno why these things now take several days instead of hours. I did about 6 hours of the bucks' day I posted about above, and that was plenty by me considering they were my sister's fiance's mates. If you're not all that close to your bro (and sounds like you're probably not) then surely a day-subscription could be acceptable... though I guess it could be out of town somewhere?
My experience will be nothing like that top expereince MD. I expect a lot of booze, lezzo shows, topless barmaids and the like for one night and then probably getting up and fucking some prostututes for the second day. Kinda like King street but in Sorrento.
Maybe if i take drugs I could get through i? ...nah make an appearance and fuck off...that's how to do it.
Apparently it's what the cashed up do these days.
any non-awful bucks party ideas that don't involve jelly wrestling, poker, paintball, go-karting or any other bogan wank?
The best buck's I ever went on was an overnighter in the mountains with: a big bush walk, beers, casual sport, beers, out to the pub for dinner, beers, beers, bright idea to get groom a nipple piercing, groom refused until 3 others participated (I still have mine), scotch, collaborative DJing and dancing (yes! blokes!), scotch, scotch, sleep.
Really nothing at all ridiculous or out of control and yet it was the best thing ever.
Conclusion: it's all about the company.
yes, this is what we want to do flukazoid (sans bush walk and nipple piercing), but getting accomodation for 22 people on two weeks notice in the country = not so easy!
the only bucks party i've been to was a day at 'the farm', an excellent beach where we surfed and swam and drank beers. it was really fun
Tried this site or similar Jones?
www.rent-a-home.com.au
Maybe don't mention the whole 22 people thing when applying.
I just spent a few days at an amazing property out past geelong that I found on this site. There were ten of us, and it was awesome.
And definitely don't mention the word ''bucks''.
