Boyfriends and Hooters Restaurant ...Whats Your Opinion
 

Ladies would you be mad if your guy was going to Hooters?

Guys, if you've been to Hooters, is there anything to get upset about or is all harmless fun?

I wouldn't be bothered at all..there's nothing wrong with looking, just no touching! I'm pretty sure the Hooters Gals aren't up for groping..but who knows!

Okay, the food is good but it isn't THAT good. :rolleyes: So, we all know why the guys are REALLY going to Hooters. However, I wouldn't mind if my bf went there with 'the guys'. The main reason why I feel this way is because I've seen some of the girls at our local Hooters and I wasn't impressed. Considering the name of the restaurant and what it's known for, I'm still not exactly sure how some of those girls got their jobs ! :eek:

I suppose I wouldn't mind but if the wait is about 3 hours like it is here in the new Valdosta Hooter's-- I'd definately insist on other places to eat!

I don't mind if he goes...I DO mind if he doesn't come home :)

Seriously, it's ok with me. I'm the one he's marrying, and Lord knows I certainly do my share of looking at other cute guys. And the last time he went to a strip club, he told me he was actually a little bored.

I can think of worse places for him to go!
I actually interviewed with them before I graduated and was considering a job...as manger, not orange shorts girl! It is a great company and I here the food truly is good.

Hooters is fun, just a little tacky.

A "Hooters Inn" just opened up off of I-4 here in FL...I'm wondering if anyone has ever actually been to one, and if it is any different than a regular hotel. The boys here have been speculating for the past few weeks...are the maids Hooters girls? I'm just wondering if they leave chicken wings on the pillows!

Interesting that in Bowling Green, KY, there is a resturant called "Toots"..exactly the same as "Hooters" but the waitresses wear "a little bit" longer outfits and is supposed to be more "family oriented"...Food tastes like it came from the same recipes..

I would be a little bothered if my husband went to Hooters. But only a little... I would probably just pout a little and that would be the end of it. I know he's true blue. :)

You can see more skin at the beach so who really cares?

My boyfriend has been to Hooters and I have had np problem with it - he's been to strip and it's no big deal; I'd be a hypocrit to say I did mind, hey I've been to plenty of ladies nights...

It wouldn't bother me one bit. My best friend from high school works at a Hooters back home, just seems like harmless fun.

I don't think I would have a problem with it at all if he went there once in a while "with the guys". However, if he was hanging out there a few times a week and sleeping in a Hooters T-shirt, I would probably have to go robo-redneck on him. :mad: In general, I find that the Hooters environment is not sleazy at all - especially compared to any place called "Jiggles". :rolleyes:

This is funny, cause my man and his friend go to Hooters at least once a week. I don't care, cause I know he is there just to drink beer and relax after work. It isnt like he's gonna take home a Hooters chick, so why worry. I know my friends and I go to the Bennigans here cause of the hot guys that work there!! So I don't see the problem with it.

proud winner of a killingans t-shirt from a hooter's hoola hoop contest from my college days. I go every now and then. There are places much worse that I can think of. I remember one place where the women would shake their chest in your face. That wasnt a restaurant of course. I've actually seen older men bring their wives and children to hooters for lunch. As they say theres nothing wrong with looking. I'd say its a toss up on the wings. I like them there or Ruby Tuesday. Thats an east coast chain.

I have no probs with my husband going to Hooter's...in fact I've gone there with him twice myself!:) I happen to like their wings!!!! I really don't care if he goes there or not, I know he's coming home to me every night and I'm the one he loves and wants to spend forever with!:D:D

FYI...I also went with my sweetie to a strip club on Bourbon St when we were in New Orleans once! We sat on pervert row...and when I went to the bathroom the stripper came around and Art put some dollars in her g-string...to which she replied "Oh, I was kinda hoping your wife would have done that!!!!":eek: :eek: All his friends think I'm the coolest girlfriend/wife ever for taking him to a strip club!

kevin that is funny as anything i've ever heard. lol o my god.

I'm going to have to remember that line!!;) :D

As long as he comes home to me then I really couldn't care if he went to Hooter's.

Thanks. :) Had lots of fun college days :)

In response to the OP, I'm in favor.

Highly in favor.

Great wings, cold beer - god, that sounds like "She has a great personality" . . . hahaha

I don't mind if my husband goes there. I'm usually with them and besides I love their wings.

Have a nice day :)

I don't mind at all-- my husband, myself and our two sons (3 yrs and 10months) eat there about once a month. We usually go with another couple and their daughter. I am not a big wings fan--but I love their grilled cheese sandwiches.
Usually when we go the guys are at one end of the table and the girls (my friend and I) are at the other. The waitresses pay as much attention to us as the guys--but I will tell you who gets all the attention--my 3 year old!!! Every time we go there he wants candy from the machine by the door--so after he is finsihed eating the waitress always walks him up there, helps him get the candy, and walks him back to the table--and on several occasions has kissed him on the cheek!!!
I don't mind at all--the girls have always been very nice to us--
and my friend and I always get a good laugh at the old men in there hitting on the girls!!!

after you use the "a little bored" line--add this: I would rather be here with you--why get excited over something I can just look at, when I could have been home with you. I love you!

I have heard this one a couple of times.

No, I don't think Hooter's is a big deal-interesting that this topic should come up, since all my friends and I are going to eat there tomorrow night. Like I had to even ask Hunny if he wanted to go there...but really, to me, it's just harmless stuff. Look, but don't touch, you know? And to be honest, I look all the time-but would I ever do anything? Heck no! Ok, I'm rambling now...

Hooters is no biggie...ha ha. I have been there lots of times because fraternities have rush events there. Anyway, I like the food and the atmosphere is not sleazy or anything. It's an okay place.

Why would I be upset with him going? I know I'm not normal, but I really don't care. Matter of fact, I've been there a lot myself with my boyfriend and just with guy friends. Honestly, most of the girls aren't all that anyway and the food isn't bad.

We do. Actually, Wednesday we'll be there for rush. Also a few brothers have dated a few of the gals. One was dating the chap president for a few months. She came to a football (intramural) game straight from work (she had street clothes on over the uniform) I was willing to pay her $20 bucks to get down to the uniform, and run up and down the field with the chapter flag. Interesting, she wouldnt do it....

Hey guys are going to look at pretty girls. Personally I do not care if he looks just as long as he doesn't do anything else. I think it is pretty harmless. After all I like to look at sexy men it doesn't mean I am going to do anything with them.

The topic was brought up b/c I have a friend who wanted to know how someone would feel about it. I dont have a bf or a husband and wouldnt care if he went anywho, but some people do.... :)

I waitressed there about 11 years ago and I recall that looking was encouraged, but touching was strictly forbidden. It's actually more of a "wholesome" place than you might think. We actually got our share of families coming in to eat.

I didn't take time to read the whole thread, but do have one point to make.

The women (wait staff) in Hooters are very seldom anywhere close to a good looking as the ones on the billboards and bus boards.

At least not the ones I've visited. I'm sure that Killarney is one of the exceptions -- in fact, probably one of the ones on the billboards.

It's just a restaurant.

Hooter's is no big deal. Girls wear shorts, tank tops, and PANTY HOSE. I took my son when he was only 12 and I have taken my mother, she is 80!

I'm surprised noone minds....but
 

I don't worry about my husband but he doesn't go there, nor would I want him to. I don't care how good the food is; the place comes across as sleazy. He doesn't want to go there. And I don't know anyone else who goes there, either, except my hubby's business contacts. In fact, he is often asked to go there for business lunches but he always declines and suggests some place else. And they go someplace else. He is very much a leader-type person & people respect him because they know where he stands.
However, once when he was president of a local construction association, all of the board wanted to have something at Hooters. They went there, but he didn't go. Not in an obnoxious "I'm a better person than you" way but "I'm not interested in that-but you guys have fun" way. Some of these people have various marriage, drinking problems & they always come to him for advice.

There is nothing to be concerned about at Hooters!!! Despite the rep, it is actually a fun, almost family-type restaurant. The "Hooters Girls" are just waitresses, not strippers. They just have to wear those goofy orange satin 70's shorts and tight tank tops, big deal? You see a lot of girls on campus wearing equally revealing stuff. And they aren't exactly the most beautiful girls I have ever seen, either. Usually very friendly and fun, and well-endowed up front, but nothing to write home about. A friend of mine and I actually were considering getting jobs there during school but we got talked out of it because of the "image." We were just looking for good tips without having to strip!!!!!

To be totally frank, if a girl gets all pissy about her man going to eat at Hooters, she needs to find a hobby. And maybe some counseling.

As the girlfriend of a TKE, you have to be supportive of Hooters, considering the restaurant was started by a TKE. Everytime they have a Conclave or big meeting, they always end up at Hooters. It doesn't bother me at all, the women here in Dallas that work at them are just normal girls in shorter shorts, most of the women I know wear skimpier stuff than that just out at the bars....

Hooters isn't such a big deal. I agree that there are a lot of unattractive girls that work there. They sure don't look likethe calendar pin up girls of Hooters. Plus many don't have big boobs.
I'm more concerned about bachelor parties where htey have strippers come to the house. It really bothers me when people say it's ok to touch bc you aren't commited until there is a ring on your finger(I've heard people say that and so men go and sleep with these girls). I just hope to marry a virtuous and moral and horny male- but only with me;)

LOL, well my man just called me-he is hanging out having a beer with his best friend, at Hooters! Which he does about once every week or two. I really don't see a problem, especially since I was just watching this True Life thing on MTV, they were doing one on Beauty Pagents, and they had the Hooters International Bikini Contest on there. And some of those girls were not all the pretty. Of course they had really great bodies, but some were not that attractive. So if that is what there is to see, then I don't care about him going there, its just harmless fun.

It's absolutely hit-or-miss with Hooters girls; some places, they're really cute, some places....not so much

Plus, it's not like we're talking about a strip club here, just a restaurant. I've yet to be in a Hooters where men were touching the...well, touching the hooters. There should be no reason to get mad at a significant other for going to a restaurant.

Collin- you mean the hooters next to you don't have the private VIP rooms in the back? And the long "Extras" menu that you can only see under a blacklight?

Damn man, you are missing out! You'll have to come visit.

For you women all I can say is:

When you think of Hooters and your man, Be Afraid . . . be very afraid!
