Chicago Bans Sexually Suggestive Dancing @ School Dances

Fliers announcing this month’s Evanston Township High School homecoming dance carry the warning: “salacious or inappropriate dancing” — often called “juking” — is outlawed.

As the homecoming dance season approaches, Chicago-area schools are wrestling with how to stomp out sexually suggestive dancing, or juking, especially one version in which a girl grinds into a boy, her back to his front.

During a meeting with student council members, kids insisted, “This is how we dance. Weren’t you young once?” Romain recalled. “I said to them, ‘If I asked you to dance at homecoming, would you expect me to juke with you?’ They said, ‘No, that’s different.’ I said, ‘Well, this is different, too. We’re not in someone’s basement.’” [x]

What do you guys think? Should sexually suggestive dancing be banned from school dances? Hm...
