Why is it such a bad thing???

Okay so over the weekend my husband had gone to Atlantic City for a Bachelor party. He left Friday at about 4pm and got home at 1:30am. Didn't even spend then night. Well I had no illusions about what he was going to be doing. They ate, gambled (Which I'm thankful for since he came home and was only $6 short of what he went with. YEAY!) drank, walked around and went to a strip club.

Now let me just say when I got married Josh (yes I'm tired of my abbreviations, his name is Josh not J. lol) did not have a bachelor party. Well not in the true sense, he didn't have a stripper or anything, there wasn't even really drinking. He was 19, I was 18. And I don't regret it either, I mean even if we were older. For some reason I don't mind him going to strip clubs for others bachelor parties but I would have been bothered by him going prior to our wedding day with a bunch of guys.

But back to the story...

Of course I gave him a hard time about it. Not him going just about what he'd do at the strip club. I told him that he was NOT allowed a lap dance. My thinking is touching is cheating, look all you want. But also he doesn't get any for three days after going to a strip club, which I got that from Holly (thanks girl). lol. So any way, they go have a good time, and that's the end of it.

Well during the day that he was in AC I had lunch with my aunt (she's only 4 years older than me) and her two kids. So we're talking and I say how Josh is going to AC and he better be good and all. You know, just jokes. I trust my husband.

Today my aunt called me and jokingly says "so was Josh good?" me, "yeah, ha ha ha." her, "no strippers?" me, "oh there were strippers, there just wasn't a lap dance." her, "WHAT??? You allow that? Nicole." (yes I said Nicole, that's my real name and I will be using that, stay tuned for a post on the why's and details...) and I'm all "What? I don't care if he goes blah blah blah." basically she was shocked that I was okay with him going to a strip club. I'm all it's not a everyday event! I mean sheesh, I let him go when there are bachelor parties. What's the big deal?

What are your thoughts on this? Would you allow your husband to go?

When Josh and I have been in AC together, we've joked about going together. We never really went cause I think he thought I was joking. But really???? I'd go. Why not?

Would you??? Am I strange for wanting to go with him? I've never been. Shouldn't I know what he's seeing when he's there?
