Prom Offers Millions of Young Girls First Experience with Disappointment
According to a newly published survey from the University of Southern Indiana, senior prom continues to offer millions of young girls around the country their first chance to experience disappointment.
“According to our findings, a majority of American women can trace their first truly bitter taste of their expectations shattered by reality back to prom night,” said research team lead Veronica Smith-Greene, "The experience is a vital first step in transitioning young women from the innocence of high school to the demoralizing real world that awaits.”
Among the 31 million survey participants, 65 percent said their date got too drunk at the after-party, causing an embarrassing scene that forced them to apologize for their date on their behalf — On the bright side, 91 percent of those said in a follow-up question that the experience prepared them for when they would later make a similar apology on behalf of their spouse after he gets ejected from the stands for heckling a little league umpire. 71 percent of women responded either “partially” or “entirely” to the question “Did you spend the night fighting, crying, or both with your best friend in the bathroom?” And 88% of women surveyed said prom night was the first time they used the lie it was “good for me too.”
“It’s a rite of passage,” said local mom Paige Philips, getting emotional as she thought about her daughter, “the first night a girl learns what it means to be a woman — to dream big then eventually settle.” “I’m sorry,” she added, fanning what she called “happy tears” from her eyes, “it's just so magical.”
Smith-Greene said she and her team would continue their research by studying the extraordinary female ability to continue to “WOO!” during a bachelorette weekend even though it's the third day and all they want to do is die.
