Random Topic! Would you...
Would/did you let your spouse have a stripper(s) at their bachelor/bachelorette party? I would. As long as the look but dont touch rule applied. Besides if a hot girl in her undies can make a man leave, then it wasnt true love anyways. :) ( although it is important to take care of yourself)
