He doesn't by choice, not because I don't allow him to.

I always equate strip clubs with 3 groups: guys going to bachelor parties, very young single guys (very young 20s)  with too too much time and money on their hands and mechanics that usually go to the clubs for lunch.

The guys who go to a strip club for a bachelor party usually don't go into a club otherwise. It's just strictly a bachelor "his last single night out" kind of thing.

Since i've known him (5 years) he has only been twice, and those were for his buddy's bachelor parties.

Since you didn't have any one time thing options, I didn't answer. But DH has only ever gone once and that was for his bachelor party. He said it sucked, so I doubt he's ever going back, unless we go together.

He's been to one once for his bachelor party, and he didn't even want to go then.

Yeah, this. Add another option for "Never: He thinks they're skeevy."

I answered "other".  He never goes, but not because he's "not allowed" to.  WTF is this "not allowed" crap??  I have to ask, that if that is the case, are you his wife or his mother?

Ditto bubbly.

He doesn't go because he's not into that, not because he's "not allowed."

Derniermot

He went once in 2006 for his friend's bachelor party.

He went once in 2007 for work.

He is "allowed" to do whatevertheheck he wants.

I too am a special snowflake and answered "other". DH doesn't go because he doesn't want to, not because I control him. I'm his wife, not his mother. I would never marry a guy who wants to spend time in strip clubs.

BunMom90

3-4 times in the past 20 years and those instances were for bach parties or at someone's else event. He doesn't go because he finds it skeevy.

LovelyMissNikki

The boyfriend goes a couple times a year during the big get togethers him and his buddies have. I don't really care, but he's pretty indifferent to them and says he feels like they're a waste of money and that the idea of a stripper isn't a really appealing or attractive one.

My husband doesn't go. We don't have to ask each others permission for anything.

Exactly. I'm not his mother, he doesn't need my permission to do things. However, on the very rare occasions that he does go to a strip club (like a bachelor party) he tells me ahead of time. I'd be more offended if he felt like he couldn't tell me about it.

Bachelor parties. The last one was probably 4 or 5 years ago now.

Ditto this. He says they make him feel gross. 

Tough Taters

I also picked "other" for lack of a better choice. I don't tell him what he can and cannot do, he just simply doesn't go to strip clubs.

Calumet

Never. But not because he isn't allowed. He just doesn't go. If he wanted to, I think I'd be fine with it, unless it was all of the time. I also wouldn't mind going together, I think it would be fun.

ashleym909

i picked other b/c he chooses not to go, not b/c i don't "allow" him to. im not that kind of wife that tells my DH what he can and cannot do..

Amy_Justin

FI doesn't go because he doesn't want to, not because I tell him he can't.

Same here.  Plus there aren't any here and he's mentioned in the past that they don't interest him.  [thank heavens lol]

This.  I'm sure he'll eventually go for a Bachelor party which I'm fine with

As it is I've gone with him to a strip club twice now.  Otherwise he's gone once more without me and I couldn't really care if he went or not.  He's attached to me and I trust him so I don't see any need to worry.

shexmix

One more "other" vote that would have gone in the "never" category, if not for the ridiculous "he's not allowed" bullsh!t.  Allowed?  Seriously?  Who are you people?

If he wanted to go, I wouldn't care and may even want to join him.  But he has no interest.  He doesn't find them "skeevy" like others have said, rather they hold no appeal for him.  As he says, why waste your time looking if you can't touch?

NoNotTufts

I don't have a husband, but speaking as one, 90% of the time I go to strip clubs it's because I'm at a bachelor party. The other 10% of the time it's because we're out drunk and someone throws the idea out there. 

On average, I go about once a year.  I don't find them gross, it's just that there is not much of a payoff.   

The_Quiet_One

We went a couple of times together in college when some friends wanted to go.  Since then (and before, come to think of it), he hasn't gone because it's just not his thing.  I have never had less than a hilarious time, though.  So I voted "Other".

The whole "not allowed" thing is not exactly what I would call a sign of a healthy wedded relationship.  I'm his wife and partner, not his freakin mother, to "allow" or "disallow" things.
