First, if you trust your fiance, why do you need to send your dad or your brother or best male friend, and to plan your bachelorette the same night to take your mind off your worries. Or to send him to a remote area--"too remote for strippers." (By the way, there is nowhere too remote for strippers.) He should not be doing anything that makes you want to have your brother or dad there. Also, why the low self-esteem and thinking you can't set ground rules. For instance, saying that a total ban on strippers is ineffective because he has no control on what his friends do is just plain stupid. Is this guy two years old? His friends will not ignore his wishes if he makes his wishes clear. And just because he proposed does not mean, believe it or not, that he is ready to settle down, as stated. If his friends are going to ignore your wishes (and maybe his) and he is not man enough to speak up, and you have to worry about his going to strippers in spite of your discomfort with them, and perhaps even wanting to go to the strippers, then he is only ready for YOU to settle down. Get real. This article is addressing women who are uncomfortable with strippers. It is reasonable to be uncomfortable with strippers if you think that marriage is about your commitment to each other and that other naked women do not belong in your relationship. There may be women out there who don't feel that way, but if you are not one of them, you have every right to expect that your fiance and his friends will respect your feelings.
