Seeing as it was all lads though and there wasn't huge peer pressure to join in then I dont see the big deal. Although when I went to college (from UK so we were 16-18) our student union arranged several trips to Amsterdam where we got stoned and went to sex shows for 4 days so perhaps my opinion isn't the most balanced? Guy probably told his gf and was forced to apologise! | ||

Its a casual gathering of dudes, with no pressure. As what other people said i';d be more concerned about the naked guy., In fact, any gathering where its cool for someone to be naked the whole time, its fine for pretty much anything, strippers included. Its kinda lucky they came. imagine if your reunion was 75 dudes in a rooom and one was naked. i'd write a fucking letter about that | ||

The guy in the letter is worried about it alienating certain people, which it certainly does. If I don't drink and you do, then you drink, I don't, and we can still hang out. If one guy doesn't like to see girls and another does, it makes it kind of difficult for both of them to simultaneously get their wishes. | ||

Someone would def be sending out the letter about the naked dude if strippers hadnt saved the night thats for sure. I agree with what everyone else said. No one was married and its a 5 year get together of some mates and so this seems fine. Everyone knows you can just step out to the bar or outside for a bit if you dont wanna watch the show and just continue the shinnanigans after the strippers are down. Either way this sounds pretty awesome and i hope you enjoyed the get together | ||

But the real issue is, if you know these guys for so long, why not just say it instead of sending an email? It's a highschool reunion, most likely most people barely know each other by now. Many people are uncomfortable with strippers, just like, say, if you were to hand out drugs, or play loud black metal music, people have different tastes and attitudes towards these things. So when organizing such events, it's not smart to pick one of those things with a high risk of annoying people. I definitely wouldn't want to go to a reunion with strippers, since it would feel awkward when among various people I knew somewhat when I was 16. -- and besides, it's distracting from the very point of a reunion. | ||

I can't really think of any other reason for a man to feel alienated at a stripper party, especially if none of you were married. I would say those people had the option to leave, so they should have, and if they were made to feel uncomfortable they brought that upon themselves by staying. No reason to ruin the fun for all the other guys just cause a few dudes want male strippers instead. | ||

Out of 75 men, it is likely that there were some homosexual men (possibly the 3 that left) and this person who felt alienated could have been one of them. If you were gay, and you were at a reunion and female strippers were there, wouldn't you feel alienated?

A lot of people would probably go just to catch up and suddenly had to witness a sex show, it's very much in bad taste. | ||

A reunion of classmates who weren't that close of friends, not expecting it to happen, inappropriate. I'd have to go with not inappropriate by what you explained at the end. Also you said this happened at 11pm at the after party. I'm assuming that the actual reunion started a lot earlier? So people got time to catch up if they wanted to, than had some fun afterward if they wanted to. | ||

So people got time to catch up if they wanted to, than had some fun afterward if they wanted to. this is true, it started around 5, decent enough time for banter. the naked guy is one of my good mates, he's in no way gay, but it confused most of us. i personally think it may have been a "hey im a fun guy, pick me to do lapdances on" kind of ploy, or maybe he was just drunk, not sure. adding that may have derailed this a little, but i think it was funny anyway =) | ||
