Social Hour & Evening Themes

Among the highlights of each day at the gatherings are the late afternoon social hour parties and evening events.

Just for fun, the social hour parties and evening events have a different theme each day. While nudity is still the overall rule, gathering attendees are encouraged (but not required) to wear accessories that correspond to the theme for the social hour and evening. Social hour “costumes” can range from a simple cap or hat to the outlandish.

The CMEN Southeast Spring Gathering 2022 themes will be:

• Fri – June 03 – Madd Hatter:  The Mad Hatter has arrived butt can’t decide which hat to wear.  What would you suggest?  What hat would your friends say is you?  Wear your favorite hat, cap, crown, bonnet, beanie, fedora, Panama, trilby, deer-stalker, bowler, straw hat, pith helmet, Cat in the Hat, Santa’s cap, top-hat, pillbox, ten-gallon Cowboy hat, or even tiara!  The options are endless.  Be like Prince in his raspberry beret, or your favorite cowboy in a ten-gallon hat (Bareback Mountain-style), Village people-style with a construction hat or a leather chapeau,   Keep it simple and wear your favorite sports team’s baseball cap!  Let’s show those Brits how it’s done during a Royal wedding!  Go all-out Jock with a football helmet, a sports visor, or a swimmer’s cap!
• Sat- June 04 – Diamonds Are Forever:  Dress to sparkle and shimmer this afternoon.   Perhaps you’ll find paradise in a glorious ensemble, in a totally silly frock, or in the man wearing one…  Who will win our hearts?  Everyone’s a Queen this afternoon whether you’re wearing a tiara, a crown or just wish you had the nerve!
• Sun – June 05 – RED Hot:  Everything is red hot today!  Wear your favorite red cap, red sandals, a plaid red kilt, a Santa hat or how about some red-hot Matador tights?!  Dress up as Elmo the muppet, Jessica Rabbit or wear the Cat in the Hat’s red hat!  Instead of dressing up to walk the Red Carpet, WEAR the red carpet!  You don’t belong to the Red Hat Society?  No problem… put on something Fire Engine red and pretend you’re mounting a real Fireman!  And if you aren’t feeling ballsy, keep it simple and wear only a sock on your cock like a Red Hot Chili Pepper!
• Mon – June 06 – Men in Uniform:  Ah, there’s nothing like the smell of a man in uniform! (…except maybe a man OUT of his uniform!)  Who are your favorite uniformed men? Are they the royal red troopers that you dream of mounting or the aces in the sky that you want to ride off with into the sunset? Or maybe it’s the officers who preserve the peace, the doctors who heal, or the postmen who deliver?  Major military madness might be upon us this afternoon. Will you be Dishonorably Discharged for Disorderly Conduct or for going AWOL?  Play Cops and Robbers, or Cowboys and Indians. Come in a Wrestling uniform or as the High-school nurse!  Wear your favorite uniform accessories and serve!
• Tue – June 07 – Mardi Gras:  It’s Carnival time, boys!  Don your beads, masks and skimpy outfits and let’s show New Orleans (and Rio?) how to put on a party!  It’s Fat Tuesday and Ass Wednesday is just around the corner!  The Mardi Gras celebration culminates in a parade of debauchery.  Anyone for King Cake?  Wear some green, purple, and gold… like a Harlequin Jester with peacock feather!
• Wed – June 08 – Ride A Cowboy:  Yippie Aye Gay!  Let the cowboy in you shine like a rhinestone-studded Singing Cowboy or be as subtle as a bandana.  Alternatively, grab a gingham picnic tablecloth and create an impromptu CowGIRL outfit that would make Dolly herself blush!
• Thu – June 09 – Men in Leather Gear:  Yes Sir!  The masculine aroma of men in black leather fills the air.  Will tonight be the night of your fantasies?  Look your best in polished motorcycle boots, a black leather cap, armbands, a harness, and/or other leather accessories.
• Fri – June 10 – In the PINK:  Why wait for your Pink Slip… the Fuchsia is Now!  Will Miss Piggy show up in her shocking pink poodle skirt eating cotton candy?  Or will it be the Pink Panther chewing pink bubble gum?  Pink Flamingos wearing rose-colored glasses?  Or a Pink Elephant in a Pink Cadillac sipping pink champagne on ice?  This afternoon, everything is Code Pink.
• Sat – June 11 – Rainbows Forever!  Wrap yourself in a Rainbow Flag… or don anything rainbowy!  Today ANY color of the rainbow will do.  Are you feeling RED hot today?  Perhaps you’re GREEN with envy?  Mellow YELLOW after a hot shower?  Feeling royal as PURPLE?  Show us your BLUE moon… ORANGE you glad you brought something colorful to the gathering?  After all, every rainbowed outfit has a SILVER lining!
