Prom. To me prom seems like a time where teenage boys and girls celebrate their last times of high school, and reflect on everything that has happened to them throughout there time in high school. I feel like it is more than just a school dance, or a block party, or an end of the year overnight trip. It is like a ritual. Everyone is supposed to go to prom. Date or no date, limo or no limo, sex or no sex. Prom is like a wedding or a bar mitzvah, It makes you feel like your on top of the world if everything goes as planned, and afterwards you feel like your not a boy or girl anymore.
Going to prom is a social norm in my opinion, because you hear about it from your friends, family members, older siblings, books, shows, and movies. Everyone goes, and going there is like a second graduation. There are also certain rules that need to be followed, like dress codes, and the boy has to ask the girl etc. These rules are very strict, and even one person could possibly change the way prom is thought of. The rules of prom are always the same, and are always going to be the same; and in m opinion, I think that there will always be a prom night. Prom will always be a celebration in the U.S. and it's the kids that keep it alive every year.
Questions:
Why does the boy have to ask the girl?
What happens if you arrive not properly dressed?
Will prom ever stop?
What is the difference between a prom and a wedding?
What are the similarities?
