Allow me to say this on parties with degrading lyrics in the songs:
This issue can be easily remedied by BGLOs. If you are above dancing to songs with vulgar lyrics, great! Keep your stance on that aspect. However, take it a step further and (especially if your org is hosting the party) ask the DJ not to play ANY songs with lyrics you may feel are vulgar or degrading. Or hire one that plays only clean lyrics.
Taking it another step further, don't go to parties that play those lyrics. IMHO what's the difference b/t dancing to the song and strolling to it. It tells other orgs that your org does not condone such misogyny.
Now for those of you who may complain that your org may lose $ from fundraising b/c the DJ plays clean songs, ask yourself what is more important, your money or your integrity? Personally, my soul is not for sale.
As far as multiple stroll lines, yall are on your own for that one.
