Sadies is unique in that the girls ask the guys and pay for the dance.

No problem.

Here it is if you still didn't understand.

"The Sadie Hawkins dance is named after the Li'l Abner comic strip character, Sadie Hawkins. In the comic, November 13 was Sadie Hawkins Day, where the unmarried women of Dogpatch got to chase the bachelors and marry the ones they caught. The event was first introduced in a strip published on November 13, 1937.

In the U.S., this concept was popularized by establishing dance events to which the woman invited a man of her choosing, instead of demurely waiting for a man to ask her. The first known such event was held on November 9, 1938. Within a year hundreds of similar events followed suit, and the tradition became a permanent fixture in some regional American cultures."

My prom date asked me even though I'm the guy. Well, kind of.

Her: "Who are you going to prom with?"
Me: "I don't know yet. You?"
Her: "Dunno yet either."
*Silence*
Her: "This is where you ask me to go to the prom with you."
Me: ": )"
