It's wedding season, that time when we drop everything and pay anything for our girlfriends who are blushing brides. For some, this might include attending her bridal shower. Now, sure, some bridal showers are co-ed and casual, but being gay might grant you entrance to some of the most traditional all girl bridal showers around.
In this episode of Mores for Gays, Daniel takes us though the paces of being the man at a bridal shower: from dress code to presents to party games, its all covered.
Watch it after the break!

Now can we see one about being in weddings?
Future epitaph: "It seemed like a good idea at the time."
I've done the Best Man thing twice, the Person of Honor thing once, and been a supporting groomsman/usher twice. Mores and customs have shifted around a great deal, so it'd be nice for a modern recap. (Fortunately, I didn't have to plan any mondo showers or bachelor/bachelorette parties.)
Adorable
Damn, Dan, you are one CUTE mofo.
I heartily agree..

I thirdly Metabaron's comment.
Dan, I tend to get sidetracked by you beauty, beautiful chest. I may have to close my eyes to concentrate on what you're saying.
Live Long and Prosper
Fun stuff, Daniel. I've
Fun stuff, Daniel. I've only been in one wedding, and I was a groomsman. I was also one of the primary participants at the bachelor party. At the bachelorette party, it turned out that all of the guys got bored and wanted to drink, so we just had a big get-together with all of the girls. In summary, I haven't been involved in the ladyside of wedding things. Interesting nonetheless!

I'm a bit confused as to why
That's what "mores" means.

You're wrong and he
In my most humble opinion, a guide to how gay men should behave at a bridal shower is more a question of etiquette. "Mores For Gays" is a catchy title. Mores and etiquette aren't the same, but whatever. If you'd like to have that discussion, go ahead.
For the record, I very much look forward to this particular v-log, so keep it going. :)
edit: why is this comment in bold italics?
Well...
Well, I do think that one of the definitions of "mores" is not all that far off from meaning "ettiquette." At any rate, I do enjoy these videos!
mo-res pl.n. (môr'āz', -ēz, mōr'-)
1. The accepted traditional customs and usages of a particular social group.
2. Moral attitudes.
3. Manners; ways.
I'm like a superhero, with no powers or motivation...
Forgot to mention that
Forgot to mention that despite the slightly off name (which isn't that big a deal), I really enjoy your videos. :)
Though, you forget to mention to bring flowers for the brides mom. That's usually the person who cares if there are blokes at these events (in my experience).
;)
And here I was thinking...
"mores" was the plural of "more". :)
Shows what I know.
good advice
