How bad would it be to skip my sister's bacholertte party?

The MOH is planning on starting with a stripper and a sex toy party. Once all of that is over, then she wants to go to the bars. By the way, we are supposed to bring over alcohol for the beginning of the party at her house. So I imagine most people will be pretty drunk before even going to the bars.

I love drinking, so that isn't the problem. Not a fan of private strippers. Strip clubs is one things, but when this goes on at someone's home there aren't the same rules as a club.

Really, this isn't my thing. I work all week and the weekends is my time with DS. So you think it would be really bad to skip?

    No.  I would skip too. 

    Then take your sister out for a special day - just the two of you - instead.

    Could you just meet them at a bar for awhile after they go out?

    Some people are really put off by strippers, like myself... and I would just say that's the reason. ?Then I would say "I'm just too old for that." lol...

    while i love a good night out i think of myself as a parent first, friend second.  i just think of the hella-hangover that awaits me in the morning.  that is enough to keep me from going overboard.

    maybe attend for a little while, but come home at a decent hour.

    This. I know drunk people can be annoying, but it will mean a lot to your sister even if you just stay for a little bit.

    I agree about the stripper thing.. not my style. I went to a bachelorette party once and a stripper showed up. They made us all sit in chairs in a circle and this guy danced around. Sooooooo awkward and gross.

    In this case, I would do the same thing.  Or maybe just join them at the bar.
    It would be really hard for me to miss my sis' bacholerette party, but strippers are a no for me.

    would she be mad if you skipped? ?is the MOH completely unwilling to plan something else?

    i know how you feel about the stripper thing.... I endured one for my SIL's bachelorette party and it sucked. ?maybe you can show up just for the bars once DS is in bed??

    Meeting them at the bar is probably the best compromise. The bar where they are going is about 45 minutes from where I live. Another reason I thought about just staying home. By the time they get to the bar, I will be in my pj's. I'm old.

    I'm not a fan of strippers either ick, but I wouldn't miss either of my sister's bachlorette parties. Could you ask her to do the stripper first so you can show up after he leaves and then hang out for the rest of it?

    i have a different answer unfortunately. if it was my sisters party, i wouldn't miss it no matter what. we do a lot for each other and it is just one of those things. I would suck up being tired, and just ignore the stripper- it usually is only 15 mins. I hate it too and makes me uncomfortable but whatever.

    I would skip the stripper (male strippers, yuck!  I do not get turned on by their penises bouncing around in their tight, shiny underwear!  I'm not into girls, but I would so much rather see a female stripper, female bodies are much prettier) and go for the sex toy party and bars.

    I even managed to make it to my sister's bachelorette party, I was 4 days out from just having gallbladder surgery and my DS was only about 4 weeks old.  I wasn't much fun and it hurt to dance, I didn't want to drink more than a couple of drinks spread out over the entire evening. . . .but I went and it meant the world to my sister that I was there.
