Also, couldn't help but notice in this thread that the majority of persons that said they had encounters or seen some acting like douchebags all mentioned March in their posts. Could it be that the unusual large numbers of singles could of been contributed to Spring Break month? Just a thought?
It's not just March. When we were there in June last year we encountered a large group of guys (14 guys). Luckily there were only a few douchbags in the group and most of the guys were friendly/nice. We met a guy on his honeymoon with his wife who was the biggest douchbag of all. I think he came to TTR thinking he could have sex with every girl he wanted and was a major creepster. We felt really bad for his wife who was terrific. The guy almost got his a$$ beat by a former marine (would have loved to see that). I guess my point is that a douchebag can be in a group of guys just as easily as a single guy or a married guy with his wife. If your a douchebag then your just a douchebag :icon_mad:
Someone start a thread with pics of the douchey offenders. We would but we haven't been yet and we're hoping there is a minimal amount of douche-baggery going on while we are there. A couple totally drunk douche bags actually provides comic entertainment for us, but that can end quickly if the numbers climb quickly.
Have to agree...last year was our first year at TTR and we met quite a few singles and are hoping that they all come back in April so we can meet up with them again. Our trip last year was "douche bag" free In saying that...it depends on how easily offended some people are. I don't take much offence at all..we love the fun, partying and open minded people at TTR. I guess there is a fine line for some women/couples on what is flirty and flattering and what is too much...we leave our fine line at home and enjoy the fun
Just got back, trip was douche-bag free until the flight home- we met nothing but wonderful people, she received compliments every day, all the single guys were respectful and courteous. There were many people drinking beyond their capacity and we never saw anyone who needed to be schooled, something that would absolutely happen if we were at our local bar. I think that because of the sexual electricity in the air, people just show a little more restraint or control.
Just my 2 cents, I've been to TTR as a single 2 times. I respect everyones boundries as I would back home. If I were there with a lady I would expect the same, wife girlfriend or just friend. In my hood if someone disrespects a friend then they will have to deal with me, feel the same way when I am there. That said, in my last two tours in Temtation I have not seen any of that stupidity.
First of all I really enjoy everyones comments. We are newbie soon to experience Temptation in Oct. 2012. I hope we can alot of nice friendly peoples, as for the disrespectiful singles guys I haven't had hardly any problem with that, I think I have been lucky in the people we meet or that fact that my hubby 6'5 255 lb black man who has a funny way of dealing with disrespectiful SOB. But i'll let you in on a secret his really a big teddy bear. Can't wait to meet folks for the site this year.....p.s. how do we post our picture.
