Is this a stupid idea?

Question

I know of a few schools that have a "girls ask guys" dance instead of the traditional "guys ask girls" dance. Our high school doesn't have a dance like this but I think it would be a good idea. would it be a good or bad idea to write a letter to either the student council (they coordinate all of our school dances) or a letter to the school newspaper suggesting something like this?

And, should I sign it or leave it anonymous? I could see some people not agreeing with the idea and I don't want to be on anybody's bad side' because of it...

Answer 1

It's not a controversial issue. There's no reason for it to put you on anyone's 'bad side'. Bottom line is that anyone can ask anyone else to any dance. Girls can always ask guys out if they want to...and vice versa. It doesn't take a designated "girls ask boys" dance for that to occur.

Go for it...it helps lot of the girls get up some confidence to ask boys out that they like...and gives the boys a more 'official' break from feeling like they have to be the ones to ask (because many girls are reluctant to most of the time).
