Groom upset about hen do!

I think the life drawing sounds fun up until the point that you know the guy...personally I wouldn't feel comfortable drawing someone naked that I knew so I can see where your OH is coming from...would you be happy with your OH seeing someone from your work naked? I think things like that need to be kept to strangers... That is usually half the fun that you never have to see them again if its all a bit embarrassing sorry x

I Agree with the above poster :\ I wouldn't like it so wouldn't expect my OH to

Sorry but I totally agree with your other half on this. Look at it from the other point of view - if my OH decided to hire I girl I hated to pose nude at his stag do, I'd be seriously P***** off about it. Also, it sounds like your OH may be uncomfortable with you doing that anyway, regardless of who the model is.

If you go ahead with it, I would get someone else to pose for you instead. Contact a company called 'Butlers in the Buff' because they do this sort of thing all the time.

I think the life drawing sounds fun but I would feel a bit odd drawing someone I know so I would go down a proper route.

Plus as others have said, if H asked a girl he knew I didn't like to pose naked for him and his mates I would consider that mightily disrespectful.

Nothing wrong with the activity but I'd definitely book through a proper company to avoid any awkwardness.

I agree with everyone else, the activity itself is fine but not drawing someone you know and especially not someone your other half hates, I think it's incredibly disrepectful to your other half's feelings. And yes if you reverse the situation would you honestly be ok with it? It doesnt matter if he has a valid reason for disliking this fella, it doesnt even matter that he does dislike him - even if they were mates I dont think you should be drawing someone you both know!

Sorry I agree with the previous posts too.

Agree with everyone above. Plus, I suspect you, your hens and your Boy can predict that this isn't going to be a master class in life drawing. Girls, cocktails, naked man, hmmmm.

I also agree with what everyone else has said. Are you sure he doesn't have a problem with the activity in general as well? I only ask as you seem unsure why he has a problem with the guy, but maybe he's just using that as an excuse. My OH is a right jealous monkey so wouldn't be happy about it, and would go through the roof if I said Mr X who he hates would be the model.

My friend did a life drawing class for her hen this year and they said it was fun but they were all a bit embarrassed for a while and were all so glad they wouldn't have to see the guy again, especially after some of their, apparently shocking, drawings.

I love the life drawing idea as well! I do agree with the other ladies though- drawing someone you may not know but OH does is a bit awkward for him more than anything; you might not know him, but like the other ladies have said; he does and if the roles were reversed, I wouldn't be thrilled either.

I think the best way to rectify the situation is to find a local art collage and ask if they have a model pool so you can get one that is annonymous to both you and OH; it might cost a bit more, but on the other hand, it saves the idea and the embarrassment!

hope that helps!

This.

Sorry, but I am with the other posters on this. I would hate it if was the other way round and would like to hope my fiancé wouldn't even contemplate it if it was someone I knew. Never mind knowing and disliking!

I agree with the others, the life drawing sounds fun but I can understand your OH not being comfortable with it being someone you both know.

Nothing that hasn't been said by everyone else, but I'm with your OH.

What if your OH was having a *DIY* stag do, and had hired a girl from his work to strip off and do lap dances for them? I can't imagine anyone would be happy with that! Let alone somebody you didn't like(!)

I have no issues with general nakedness on stag and hen dos, but naked STRANGERS, not people you know!

Ha it's all unanimous in here!
