Your future relationship will be blessed for abstaining from that nonsense.
So how come you didn't want to go?

I hated high school really, I never really did any of the after school activities, just couldnt wait to get out ;)
I think its all nonsense too, I rolled my eyes so much at all the silliness of getting excited over a dance that Im surprised they didnt roll right out :D
Proms wont ever likely be banned but I agree that they are silly.

I only went to once "dance" in my lifetime and it was from Hebrew School. I didn't have a good time anyway because all the girls had dates so I had no one to dance with anyway.
They called it a "Confirmation dance" because many self-hating Jews have "Confirmations" when they are 15 so they had it for the 10th Graders at my Hebrew School because it was a "community Hebrew School" and not part of one movement so they had to cater to the Deformed people who have Christian celebrations ("Confirmations") disguised as Jewish celebrations in their Deformed synagogues. I never had one and I only went to the dance because I wasn't modest yet then and I wanted to dance with women for lustful reasons. Now I know it is wrong to want to dance with women other than my wife and I regret attending. Maybe G-d punished me for it by making me not have a good time but actually He was probably blessing me by preventing me from sinning. The dance was in a ballroom at a Deform synagogue. I think they had a disco ball hanging from the ceiling and I didn't see the part of the building where the Deforms pray in.

I have been to many dances, and I enjoy it.

I think they should be banned and I'm very grateful I never went to the one my high school had. I was never into that nonsense even when I did believe in male-female interdancing. I knew I'm Jewish and that "proms" are not a Jewish thing.

NO. They shouldn't be banned. And just for the record, Proms aren't a Christian thing either. Its a celebration of a class graduating from High school and becoming young adults!
And interdancing... Yacov, stop picking on celebrations that actually make others happy.
--- End quote ---
Proms might not be Christian but they are Gentile and go against Jewish tradition.
--- End quote ---
So it's sinful in the Jewish religion to celebrate graduating from High school?
--- End quote ---
No but it is sinful to dance with members of the opposite sex unless it is your spouse and in private.
Once again you are showing your "brilliant" affirmative action "logic".

You are the one seeking to ban fun from people's lives. But I'm showing "affirmative action" logic? What does that mean, anyway, Yacov? I attend a Marine Corps ball with my husband every year and enjoy dancing with my friends AND with my husband. I guess I'm going to hell in a handbasket, huh? ::)

Erica, Yacov specifically said that this doesn't apply to gentiles, a few times. I can't believe that you just seriously asked that question. In Yacov's poll, I answered "no" to you being a troll, but I'm starting to think I should have cast my vote the other way... ;)

You are such a Righteous Gentile. Did you ever go to other school dances?
I also was not into extracurricular activites in high school. But in middle school I was on the baseball team but they hardly ever let me get into the games. So I wasted 2 hours after school every weekday at practice just to watch other people play in games.
I also never dated anyone in school. In middle school I wanted to but in high school I didn't want to. But now I'm glad I never dated anyone in middle school.
Did you ever go on a date in middle school or high school?

Ha ha not many. My father was a very large and loud former Marine, most boys wouldnt ask me or my sister out because they had to meet and be grilled by him ;)
I had my first real boyfriend my first year of University.
No I didnt do any activities, not involving the school, I went, did my work, got good grades and graduated, I had no desire for anything else there.
