About a year ago, they opened up a Hooters restaurant in the town where I work. Today, I ventured in with a coworker to have lunch.
My first impression – dang! I didn’t know that they also wore short-shorts, where their butt cheeks stick out. I guess I shouldn’t have been surprised by the push-up bras and tank tops. Walking in felt like walking into a playboy bunny convention – except all the bunnies were waitresses.
While trying to talk to my coworker, I found passing waitresses to be – a bit distracting. My experience was that it was all a bit unnerving and uncomfortable – what do they want you to do, ogle the waitresses? Flirt? Grab butt cheeks?
One of the waitresses came up and stroked my beard a couple of times, and I was like, "what?" Is this normal? Anyway, I made sure my wedding band was on the correct hand, and displayed it prominently. The the food was your basic bar and grill food, nothing great, and overpriced.
Upon leaving, I bought my wife one of those Hooters tank tops. At least at home, I can look and touch – who wants to torment themselves by going into a place where you can look but you can’t have? Needless to say, I won’t be going back – it’s not worth the distraction, nor the cash.
This is exactly why guys shouldn't go to a place like this. I tried to tell my daughter that this place is not appropriate even for families. The waitress' uniforms are too distracting for any guy. Females shouldn't even be wearing such attire because it drives men, and even boys, crazy.
Thanks for the input from a male's perspective.

I do enjoy spending time there with my not so Christian friends to watch the kick boxing tournaments once a month… I think Christians, if they are strong enough, should go in order to spend time with their unsaved friends… perfect why to share the gospel of God's grace and to show respect and restraint when it comes to relating to the women there…
