Once
a year single women can ask for whatever they want...and get it. At
this year's annual Sadie Hawkins Day Dance, Friday, November 9, 2012,
8pm-Midnight, men are not allowed to say no if a woman asks them to
dance. The party is at Handle's at The Pleasanton Hotel, 855 Main
Street, Pleasanton CA 94566.. Contrary to popular belief, Sadie
Hawkins Day does NOT occur on Leap Day. It happens every November 15.
"Single
women have lots of complaints about single men," says Rich
Gosse, Chairman of The Society of Single Professionals, the world's
largest non-profit singles organization. "One of the biggest is
men who turn them down when asked to dance. How rude! At our Sadie
Hawkins Day Dance, men will NOT have that option. Sadie Hawkins Day
is a wonderful opportunity for single women to be assertive and get
what they want in life, rather than follow the disastrous strategy of
playing hard to get."
Rich
Gosse, author of eight books on dating, is available to the news
media to discuss Sadie Hawkins Day in the context of bachelorettes
fulfilling their romantic needs, by calling 415/479-3800.
Sadie
Hawkins Day, an American folk event, made its debut in Al Capp's Li'l
Abner strip on November 15, 1937. Sadie Hawkins was "the
homeliest gal in the hills" who grew tired of waiting for the
fellows to come a courtin'. Her father, Hekzebiah Hawkins, a
prominent resident of Dogpatch, was even more worried about Sadie
living at home for the rest of his life, so he decreed the first
annual Sadie Hawkins Day, a foot race in which the unmarried gals
pursued the town's bachelors, with matrimony the consequence. By the
late 1930s the event had swept the nation and had a life of its own.
Life magazine reported over 200 colleges holding Sadie Hawkins Day
events in 1939, only two years after its inception. It became a
woman-empowering rite at high schools and college campuses, long
before the modern feminist movement gained prominence.
Adults
