Should Jews Participate In Senior Proms?

--- Quote ---That's actually always been my mantra. I've ALWAYS accepted other religions and different cultures of people because everyone SHOULD be respected for what they stand for and for the positivity they bring to the world. The one thing I'm against is bashing colors of other's skin, comparing people to monkeys, and bullying good people. Say what you will about those who aren't productive and constantly start trouble...just don't doubt that there is good in every culture.

Maybe JTF can learn a few things from Erica.

Yacov, I don't see anything wrong with proms. I think many evening dresses could be more modest. I personally don't like to expose my arms at all. But that's just me. (My mother says I dress like a grandmother/nun.) Also, if the dancing is modest (as opposed to grinding against one another) I think it's fine. These are social events where young people can meet and socialize with one another.
Now if you really have a problem with mixed dancing, you have the option of either not going to a regular prom, or organizing a special Orthodox Jewish prom where the young men and women dance separately. All this talk of banning sounds rather extreme.
Finally, I don't think Nic meant any disrespect. He was just writing about his perspective on the whole prom thing. So please go easy on him.
Lisa:
I've never been to a prom, but I thought they were to celebrate the end of high school -- kind of like a graduation party.
Would you go to a prom if it was on week night?
Joe Gutfeld:
Yakov, please stop with these topics.

I personally have no problems with proms as long as their are no interracial dates and of course no muzzies.
