How to Choose Which Games to Play at a Bachelorette Party

A Bachelorette Party is supposed to be a slightly wild affair, a chance for the bride to let her hair down and howl one last time before she is married. For that reason, they are not appropriate for small children or the stick in the mud types- just leave them at home.

Because these things can become a little wicked, a little naughty, I must restate my previous warning: These games might be "R" as in raunchy, racy and really, really fun!

1) Strip that man: . Put regular clothing on a male sex doll and then time each other as you work to get him naked. Each person will take two turns, once normally and the second time with a "handicap" that the bride selects from a hat. These can include: being blindfolded, one hand tied behind your back, hands tied together, etc. The times can be added together, or a prize can be given in both categories.

2) Pin the Penis on the Stud: Select a good sized poster or fold out of a beefcake and then either draw and photocopy penises (penii? Help, what is the plural of these things? No, it's not "men") Blindfold each person and then have them pin the penis on the stud muffin- closest to actual proper placement wins.

3) I bet you never... This is a classic drinking game, but the classics never die, do they? You make a statement that begins with I bet you never and then finish it with a wild and way out there suggestion. If the person you are asking did in fact not do the deed in question, then they drink- if they did, though it is you that has to take your own medicine. It then becomes that persons turn. They make statements until they find one that no one has done and then that person takes over. The game ends when either everyone is passed out, or every major felony has been confessed to.

4) I was this age when... This is a variation on the previous game. The bride starts by announcing that she was a certain age when she did something of her choosing, whoever was the youngest when that same act was completed wins the round and begins the next. An example would be: I was 10 when I was first kissed. Anyone who was younger than age 10 wins the round, and was a naughty, naughty preschooler.

5) Finally, and my favorite of the bunch: Bash the Ex. Every woman has a torch that burns inside her little ol' heart for the most ridiculous of her past par amours. Now is the time for her to cleanse the thought of that man from her soul. If you can get hold of one, blow up a picture of the ex in question and then hand the bride a cupcake or "cream pie" made of whipped topping. Tell her to say something negative about the ex and then let him have it, right in the kisser baby! Everyone who was privy to the relationship can join in- the guy no longer has the magic hold on your about to be wed friend, and besides, how much fun is trashing some guy's picture?
