Denied to the Prom

[Goofguy]

Good call on the school's part not because a porn star should not be allowed to attend but because so much money and effort should not be wasted on such an endeavour.

Take a local girl instead, pal. You can get yourself drunk off 3 beers, throw up in a urinal, fumble awkwardly with your date's bra, enjoy your 3 minutes at third base and 10 years down the road, you can remember that prom was not all it's cracked up to be.

How about the kid does something normal and actually asks one of the girls his own age to prom? I know that's a wild idea, but I think it usually works for most people.

Edit: It also depends on how old she is because I know my school had an age limit on who could attend prom. But seriously that kid would do nothing, but regret it the rest of his life. Especially if there is actually a real girl at school he would like to take, but is too nervous to ask. Instead he opts to take a sexual object to prom with him and not a real girl.

I mean, how old is this porn star? I know in my county that I went to high school in, you couldn't invite anyone age 21 or older to prom. I realize that they are probably denying her because of her profession, but she probably can't attend for other reasons.

I must be unclear on what exactly a prom is, but shouldn't the fact that she isn't a student automatically exclude her anyway? Isn't prom a celebration of graduation?

Yeah, but most proms (atleast the UK ones we seem to have imported) allow students to bring a girl/boyfriend to it if they aren't from the school.

I'm Irish and my school's debs was the same.

That said if I was the principle I would exclude her the fuck out of it. She's a porn star and this is a semi-school event, it just looks bad. If the kid paid her to go to a bar with him, then it doesn't matter but the publicity attached to this makes it something you don't want to be associated with.

what's this? moral knighting shit about someone's relation to sex? why am I not surprised
[sub]although I would've totally invited Mandy Morbid, but sadly, we don't have that type of proms in my region[/sub]

Megan Piper? Never heard of here. To pornhub!

ROFL. Is it bad that I thought the exact same thing?
OT: Nah, I don't think a 17 should ask a porn star to the prom. It just seems offputting to me. He really should just ask a girl his age, failing that, ask his cousin like every other dude who can't get a date to the prom does.

Sorry but it's exactelly the same thing that hiring an escort to the prom, it should not be allowed

 

[Yellowbeard]

No, and it has nothing to do with her. Do you have any idea what an uproar that would cause? The kid who asked her looks like a social outcast, the sneering and snickering from the students would be ridiculous, it would likely take away completely the aspects of the prom from everyone else...

What? Sneering and snickering at others is what high school is all about.

You guys are confusing me. :I

When that MW3 gaming night came up with thousands of people attending- people got up in arms about a Porn Star being rejected to attend because of her background despite that she got an invitation first hand. But the same thing happens (not exactly but similar) and no one really minds that a Porn Star is denied entry now.

Come now, it's discrimination on the school's part just like the ME3 live event. I understand the school's concern but she's not going to do anything reckless really. She's well known and most likely going to behave at prom plus since the guy was willing to pay $400 he might as well take her out on a date to make up for prom. I'd rather have that anyways, prom is alright but to dramatic for most folk these days if they don't got a date *shrug*.

I guess its cuz in the MW3 event it was suppose to be with "adults" and in the prom it's a teenager taking a porn star to the prom.

Also lol this reminds me of 21 Jump Street where some of the nerds got hookers as dates to the prom XD

sounds a lot like the plot of The Girl Next Door.

It's a highschool prom.

I know when I went to high school, only students could attend the prom. No outsiders.
I was under the impression that that was the norm for most schools.


That being said, they're senior high school students. Most are 17 or 18. It's a little bit late for parents to try and protect their kids from the truth of the world. Because they aren't kids. Treating them like kids at this point will just lead to incompetent adults.

Ultimately, guy's an idiot, and he's just doing it to try and show how cool he is. School can do whatever it wants, seeing as its their event.

Megan Piper was going to be his lucky date, but now the North St. Paul-Maplewood-Oakdale School District in Minnesota says she cannot attend any prom in their district, warning that they will arrest her if she comes.

Say what now? Denying her access to the prom is one thing (their event, their rules; no matter how fun the moral arguments are) but since when do they get to arrest people? I'd like to see any citizen's arrest on this subject actually stick...

Police: "So you've arrested this woman and called us... why didn't you simply have her removed from the prom like you would have done with a person from any other profession?"

Idiots Prom Organisers: "But she has sex, people shouldn't be alowed to do that, it's dirty, teenage boys would never think about sex without people like her, wahhh"

Police "...but all she actually did here was show up at your prom? And instead of asking her to leave you jumped straight to calling us?"

Prom Organisers: *incoherant crying occasionally puntuated by screams of "think of the children!"*

Maybe this is just a very British viewpoint (for those not in the know: the age of concent here is 16 and frankly, many people don't wait that long) but if the guy's activly hunting down porn stars on Twitter, it's a little late to protect him from the evils of dirty, dirty sex. Take all that energy currently focused on trying to shield teenagers from sex and sustain a period of total ignorance and put it towards teaching them how to put on a condom properly. It'll make the world a much happier place.

Waitaminute, this guy got a date with a frickin' porn star, and his school denies him to go with her?
WHAT IS THIS, LIBERTY?
