Do girly holidays mean pampering, or is it a 'screeching harridan' hen night mentality?
If it's the latter, please god don't.

it usually means the following:
months and months of "what are you going to pack" and "can i borrow your gold sandals" and "do i need ten bikinis" and "if you take your straighteners, i'll bring my travel iron".

half the group getting leathered at the airport before we've even checked in.

someone forgetting their passport. someone else hating the accommodation/their roommate/crying because their boyfriend is on a stag do and might cheat on them despite the fact that they fucked the barman the night before in a moment of pre-holiday madness.

7 or 14 days of gossiping and drinking and hangovers and lying around the pool eating too much. and yeah, a certain amount of massages/manicures. but in general mostly the drinking and the gossiping.

I've been on nights out with a group of girls
Some of stuff you have to listen to makes you want to rip your hair out. I can't imagine anything worse than a couple of weeks of that non-stop :S

I did my fair share of those in my youth.
How none of us died from alcohol poisoning is still a mystery.

I hate the idea
I'll happily drink, but I'd much rather relax with a nice cold beer by the pool, than throwing them down my neck.

In Lanzarote, we did drink a lot, but it was always chilled out (except for 2 nights), and so it was relaxing, and wonderful. Although one afternoon we found a beer called Reina, which I'd had to drink, and that was quite strong, so it led to me having a considerably drunker afternoon than I'd intended.
