NEW YORK — This summer, hide your bridesmaids.
So warns the promo for this weekend's new movie, "Wedding Crashers", which is about a couple of bachelors who show up at weddings uninvited to prey on lonely bridesmaids and especially desperate female guests.
The movie cashes in on two common stereotypes about weddings: that women hate attending nuptials alone, and that men, realizing how vulnerable weddings make single women feel, use the occasions to their advantage.
But how are true are these generalizations?

If you actually had class you could claim high standards without insulting some innocent ladies. Despicable.
In some places, formal social graces are the glue that holds civilization together. It's a poor substitute for welding, but you don't have to break a sweat, or get your hands dirty.
I won't see the movie.... unless years from now on TV.... I could care less.
You invented whole scenarios of what would happen if we allowed "____ and guest" to appear on our invitations, or didn't have some seating nazi enforcing place cards. Good grief! My pretty cousin will be forced to sit next to a crasher.... evidently, without nopardons running things, both she and her fiance will be incapable of escaping the crasher sitting next to her! I can understand her being afraid to move.... with you around enforcing the seating chart... but what's her fiance? A mouse?
Girls with morals, girls without. It doesn't matter, it's all a dance. If women didn't want everything, men wouldn't be compelled to do great and amazing things. Why would we even dance at all if it weren't for women always wanting to (especially at weddings)? Take your motivation where you can get it.
Heh... I like social graces. Not "allowing" a single friend to bring a guest if she likes doesn't sound like a grace to me.
I guess grace, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.
It worked quite well, and no one overindulged. A professional bartender is well worth the money, in my opinion.
You forced my hand. I wasn't going to say anything about the lesser regions. But hey - you guys are trying. Just the other day I turned on the TV and there was a NASCAR race in CHICAGO.
You and you alone invented the original scenario. You are also being purposefully obtuse; to further your own agenda. Fine...doesn't really matter to me at all. I continue to look forward to your posts, for the giggles.
Oh - well we can't have that.... so I'll stop. Good night.
So, in other words, you don't cares what you have to do, short of getting married, to seduce a woman and have noncommittal sexual intercourse with her. Is that it?
Good night.
Unfortunately, the bridesmaid's at my sister's wedding (last one I attended, 8 years ago) were all married, although I did wind up getting three dates out of it.
Well we do care what we'll have to do, but what we will do is another matter. Whether single or married almost all our goals boil down to one thing. Power, wealth, chick flicks, and dancing. It's all for one thing. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
Oh, sweetie... your credibility, which is already zero, is being further stretched by your shrillness. Just give up.
See, my family is pretty wild - they love to dance and really only get to do it at weddings. I've been to other cousin's weddings where my family are the only people dancing. I figured ours would be like that, because his familiy comes across as very conservative and not the dancing type at all. Were we wrong! We needed a bigger dance floor! :-)
Ping.
