>> When did going to the prom become a constitutional right? It seems to me another one of these areas where our society has gone mad. Parents are filing suits or complaints against school district dress codes, guys are wanting to wear dresses at the prom, and girls want to bring their female lovers. Some parents feel obligated to spend thousands of dollars on the damn thing. I tell you we have gone insane. The prom used to be a glorified school dance. Now it has turned to Studio 57. Again my idea is to bring the prom back to the school gym. Dress code is jeans and a nice shirt. Good grief.

@rocket: I read the girls blog yesterday. CNN in this case is taking things out of context from her original intention. Her original grevience is against Patriarchy, and the way she was unjustly treated as a female.
@Drekonix: I can appreciate that. However my contention is the concept of the prom itself has gotten way out of hand. People now are winding up in court over it, seriously? Just like many other things in our lives nowadays, it has become a monster that has taken on a life of its own.
