ACCEPTED ANSWER

Score 1

Can't find anything other than male friends or men:

stag party |støg ˈpɑrdi|
noun
a celebration held for a man shortly before his wedding, attended by his male friends only.
• any party attended by men only.

^NOAD

Edit:

Well, now, hold on. This (from an 1897 slang dictionary) might be getting us somewhere:

If there's anything to this etymology, then it's quite clear that the other stag partygoers are the feeble fools of the herd.
