Is it normal for women in their 30s to act like stupid school girls on a night out?

I'm not a massive fan of nightclubs and heavy drinking at the best of times so usually avoid the work's nights outs. I did however agree to one a few months back and was left a little disalusioned by it to be honest and can't decide whether I'm justified in that or simply too old for my time!

Firstly before the night even begun it was determined that the sole purpose of the night was to get as drunk as possible by the end of it. I remember thinking this way when I was 16 and the thought is a little alien to me since I grew up!

Secondly I was shocked to see one of the women going around sticking her camera down everyone's tops to take a pic of their cleaverage (which would later end up on facebook). This is apparantly a tradition and everyone must have a boob picture taken Hmm

Thirdly a few of the women seemed to morph into exotic dancers and started feeling each other up, spreading themselves across a pool table in rather luring poses and pole dancing around a beam for the benefit of the DJ.

And apart from this - the night seemed to turn into a free-for-all with regards to snogging random blokes despite the fact that their husbands would later be picking them up from outside the club!!

I thought maybe it was just an extreme night but I noticed on facebook photos from this weekend and it looks like a repeat of the night I went on. Boob pics, exotic dancing, pouting into the camera like a 13 year old school girl and random snogging.

I won't be going out with them again. Is it me?? am I too old before my time or is this just not normal for 30+ year old women, some of whom are married with kids and professional careers etc.

Helena what is a zombie thread? Keep hearing people say if but don't know what it means?

Gwenhwyfar · 15/01/2017 21:53

A zombie thread is an old thread. It doesn't matter in this case as the discussion is still relevant.

StealthPolarBear · 15/01/2017 21:54

The snobbery and misogyny on this zombie thread is dreadful. Far more shocking than a 50 year old woman dancing.

Gwenhwyfar · 15/01/2017 21:56

Where's the snobbery and misogyny Stealth? Are you going to argue that this behaviour is empowering because anything a woman chooses to do is empowering?

StealthPolarBear · 15/01/2017 21:58

No of couse not.

" Catsuits coupled with white patent knee highs with grubby tassels"
"adult women who need a slap"

" What made her sadder was that the women were in their 50's plus!! Getting off with fellas left right and centre as well."

StealthPolarBear · 15/01/2017 22:03

Just properly read the post about the woman drawing cocks on the frosty car windscreens. ..brilliant!

Gwenhwyfar · 15/01/2017 22:04

Need a slap isn't nice, but grubby means tacky and is basically just a personal taste thing. The criticism of women in their 50s is to do with their childish behaviour I think, not criticising middle aged people's right to enjoy their sexuality.

I wouldn't dream of doing this on a night out...

Well, unless I was in some sort of disguise anyway

Btw I'm loving the word cleaverage op, was that intentional?
