A popular resort town on Spain’s Costa Brava has banned inflatable penis costumes and sex dolls from stag and hen night celebrations, with fines of up to €1,500 (£1,276).
Platja d’Aro, whose population of 12,500 can host as many as 300,000 visitors on a summer weekend, is a favourite destination for bachelor and bachelorette nights. Numerous websites offer packages that include accommodation, cruises and male or female strippers.

The new bylaw specifically bans people from appearing “on the public thoroughfare without clothing or only in their underwear or with clothing or accessories representing human genitals or with dolls or other accessories of a sexual nature”.
Offenders face fines of €300-€1,500 (£255-£1,275).

Barcelona, Málaga and Marbella are among the most popular destinations and, between them, host thousands of stag and hen parties which are catered for by companies that offer entertainment, from paintballing and clubbing to live sex shows. One calls itself, Brothels Barcelona, while a hen party site offers a strip show inside a limousine.
Platja d’Aro joins a number of towns that are struggling to curb the excesses of stag and hen nights. They include the Costa Brava resorts of Tossa de Mar and Lloret de Mar, as well as cities such as Sevilla, Málaga and Granada.
Why would you cheat on a stag/hen do?
A stripper is not automatically a sex worker.
It would depend on your definition of cheating. I assume most couples set limits on acceptable behaviour from full disclosure or don’t-ask-don’t-tell to no naughtiness. On a friend’s stag-do a maid-of-honour #cough asked if I’d snog the hen and I obliged - it’s between hen and her prospective husband as to where they drew the line that night. I am left with a nagging suspicion that it was a bet or a dare to kiss the oddest looking (hopefully not ugliest) bloke in the place.
In the UK the Jack the Rippers have a no touching policy because, I believe, they are subject to strike licensing laws. Overseas, in my limited experience (Prague) restrictions are minimal or nonexistent, so that would have to be taken into account. “What happens in tour…” is seemingly common, unless, apparently, it’s stories about me.
