Its been long since I last posted a topic in here. I always feel that this place is open for meaningful discussion on relevant topics of facing the society. I was watching a movie named "Hattrick", and saw a Hen Party being organized in the most 'normal' way. Which really got me thinking...
BACHELOR PARTIES! ... Are they OK? ...
For the male, the bachelor party is supposed to be organized by his friends. They are supposed to keep it a surprise! In these parties, the groom is made to enjoy(?) everything that might not be acceptable after marriage. This includes drinking, gambling, dancing and hiring a stripper for the night!
For the female, bachelor parties are also known as 'Hen parties'. In such parties the women are supposed to do more or less the same as the men. Drink, Dance, Gamble, Hire a Male Stripper. Do everything that might be classified as unacceptable after marriage by the spouse.
Bachelor parties and Hen Parties are increasingly popular in the Metropolitan cities of India (such as Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata. The men and women who are just about to get married and pulled and teased by their friends to drink nuts, or sometimes do something otherwise considered 'sinful' in traditional Indian culture.
Although 'One Night Stands Pre-Marriage' is not that much popular yet, still it is not an unknown concept among Indian men and women.

My curiosity towards this whole even is this:
How acceptable are bachelor parties? Are they really something entertaining? Who would I (as a future husband) like to do something that my wife or any pure soul would disapprove just prior to a new beginning?
Or is it an important part of any 'Modern Society'??
I wonder.... what do you say?
