Prom is one of those things that stopped making sense somewhere in the early/mid '70s. The clothes and behavior don't match, and what's it all really for, anyway? I never went to any of mine, because of lack of interest, and no reason to spend the money on something of dubious value.
I agree. In fact, I think school dances as a whole are out of date. Prior to the advent of instant mobile communications, school dances gave students an opportunity to "socialize". To be with other students. Back when you had to get out of the house to do that, or else share the one phone in the house.
Ewww....just ewww...

ReplyDeleteSchool dances are anachronistic.
