In a survey of 6,000 males and females throughout the United States, this study found that people who live in Rhode Island and New Hampshire cheat on their partners the most on bachelor and bachelorette trips.

The Temptation Trap: Cheating During Bachelor and Bachelorette Parties

Bachelor and bachelorette parties have become synonymous with wild nights out, unforgettable adventures, and a last hurrah before tying the knot. These pre-wedding celebrations often involve copious amounts of alcohol, party games, and a sense of liberation. However, amidst the revelry and excitement, an age-old question lingers: How common is it for people to cheat during these parties?

The Pre-Wedding Celebration Phenomenon

Bachelor and bachelorette parties have evolved considerably over the years. Traditionally associated with a night of debauchery for the groom and his friends or the bride and her squad, these events have transformed into full-blown weekends away or elaborate destination trips. The focus has shifted from mere celebration to creating lasting memories.

The Temptation Factor At Bachelor and Bachelorette Parties

When it comes to discussing cheating at bachelor or bachelorette parties, the underlying temptation factor cannot be overlooked. The combination of an exhilarating atmosphere, alcohol consumption, and the presence of attractive strangers can create a potent mix. The pressure to participate in risqué activities or engage in flirtatious behavior can sometimes push individuals outside the boundaries of their committed relationships.

Studies and Surveys

Several studies have explored the prevalence of cheating during bachelor and bachelorette parties. However, due to the sensitive nature of the topic, acquiring accurate data can be challenging. One study published in the Journal of Marital and Family Therapy reported that approximately 21% of individuals admitted to cheating or witnessing cheating behaviors during pre-wedding celebrations.

Most recently, Bonusfinder.com conducted a survey where they asked 6,000 US men and women about cheating on bachelor and bachelorette parties. "Cheating" ranged from flirting, to receiving lap dances, to downloading dating apps while at the party and having one-night-stands with strangers. The results were astonishing. 70% of people on those types of parties cheated on their partners. But some states were worse than others and two New England states made the top 10.

Rhode Island People Cheat On Their Partners

According to the study, "... the people can’t resist getting frisky over in Rhode Island as 84.2% of respondents admitted to getting up to no good, of which 47.4% were during bachelorette parties. The majority of two-timing in Rhode Island was the act of getting a lapdance, which 18.75% of respondents admitted to."

Strip clubs are in Rhode Island. Just saying...

New Hampshire Is Right Behind Rhode Island

According to the same study with bonusfinder.com, "New Hampshire is home to iconic sites such as Mount Washington, and it’s a tale as old as time that where there is a bachelor or bachelorette party, there will be wild debauchery. Coming just a few points behind West Virginia, New Hampshire lands in joint-ninth place with 80.0% of respondents doing the dirty. 36.0% of this behaviour is taking place at bachelor parties and 44.0% at bachelorette parties."

New Hampshire has many oceans, lakes, bars, and temptations. Live free or die, right?

Poles & Dancers: A look at New England’s Strip Clubs

If you haven't driven past the Golden Banana or the Cabaret Lounge, then you haven't actually visited New England. It's a right of passage.

I remember as a kid our family would drive up to New Hampshire. We'd take Route 1 to get to 95 North. And every time we passed the Golden Banana strip club my sister and I would giggle and always ask my dad why that place's parking lot was always packed. For many years he would lie to us and say it was a truck stop. But as we got older we were finally told the truth. That it was a strip club. While I still have never been to a strip club ever in my life, many of you have.

There are 20 strip clubs in the area. While I've never been, the Google reviews are all I need!

These Google Reviews Are Everything

Today, I take a look at 20 strip clubs from across New England and some of the funniest Google reviews I have seen. I was SHOCKED by how many people admit they took their children (not teenagers, but children) to a strip club - I was even more surprised by how many people said they enjoyed it as a family outing! Who in their right mind would bring their child to a strip club to see naked women dance on stage? I would NEVER do this with my kids, no matter how old they are. Even on their 21st birthday you will NOT see me in a strip club.

But anyways, there's many strip clubs around New England. From the Jay Ballet to DBs to the Foxy Lady, New England is home to some truly unique clubs. Are they good strip clubs? I have no idea! Do they make good drinks? I would not know. How good are the dancers? That's something I will never know. Because let me remind you, I've never been inside a strip club, ever.

"Last night a bunch of us went to the club and boy did we get an unexpected surprise. At first it was ok the girls we were with weren't really having fun and we kept hearing the DJ announce the feature that was coming on usually we would of just left because we have seen features before and they aren't really that good but one of the girls told us they we really ante to stay and watch. so we did and i'm glad we did. As soon as she came out dressed as Macho man Randy Savage holding slim jims to the slim jim commercial everyone at my table even the girls started smiling and went right to the stage. I think i remember her name being Madison. Now that girl is a performer. She changed the whole night and we stayed even after. I was told that some of her shows are way better than what we saw last night. What ever the Millennium Cabaret is doing to keep her keep doing it. She belongs in Vegas or Florida. I would like to know how I would be able to see another show? I looked on the website but they don't advertise her or any of her shows." - Bill Thompson
