Vegas and Strippers

So my DH is off to Vegas for his brothers stag do. There's a whole bunch of them going together which is fine as they'll have a great time.
My concern is I've overheard them on their video chat speaking of going to a strip joint.

I don't want my DH going to a strip joint, like what the actual fuck, just because it's a stag do doesn't mean they have to act like idiots and all excited about seeing strippers, it makes me sick as to how sleazy men are.

I spoke to him after his video chat and he said if all his boys are going to the strip joint he doesn't want to be the only one not going. I told him that I class it as cheating and for him to make his decision but not to lie to me and to tell me the truth if he ends up going or not.

I'm standing firm on this.

I personally would be find with my husband going to a strip club and no, I am not submissive nor weak...if anything I would consider myself the more dominant one in the marriage.

I am very confident in my body and my husband's sexual attraction to me and I am not threatened by him being sexually attracted to other women, I actually think it's natural. I would draw the line at touching/lapdances because that's a level of intimacy I believe should be sacred within a marriage, but looking is fine.

The women are working a job and being paid, it's not like they are into my husband. I don't get your judgement on others' choices, it's really not your business how other people feel about their OH going to a strip club, clearly this is an issue in your relationship so maybe you should focus on that.

Prostitution is legal and common in Vegas, which is much worse than strippers.

There’s also ridiculous amounts of gambling in Vegas. It is a city without culture, decency, or beauty. Everything is very new, and it’s in the desert. My parents and brother have been for dealer conferences, and didn’t care for it. Having a stag there might eliminate all need for a wedding. I wouldn’t want a fiancé who bought lottery tickets, let alone all of that. I was brought up Quaker, and have seen what gambling does to people.
