Now many of us know of a girls’ idea of homecoming; they would wear mums to show spirit, wear stylish dresses for the dance, and some wait for guys to ask them out. Now what do guys think about homecoming, is it more masculine? Here are some thoughts from these three male individuals.

“Homecoming should be an opportunity for friends and clubs to relax. To make homecoming memorable; I would expect confetti at the end,” Anthony Leal said.

School can be really stressful and demanding, luckily with some effort of the student council, we can really enjoy school more.

William Want said, “Homecoming is an opportunity for people to go to school one night without having brain cancer and just have fun.”IMG_0091IMG_0089

Issiac Chicas responds, “I would like homecoming to end with the staff break dancing, confetti, and the results of the homecoming king and queen.”

Some prices on the high school homecoming dance and game can be pricey. However, is it worth the money? “The price for the dance isn’t worth it, it should be at the Berry Center. The homecoming is though, it sets a nice vibe,” Leal said.

Want said, “The game is worth it, but the dance, no,”

Chicas said, “I think both of the price for the game and dance is both worth it.”

In like matter, the school may need to lower their prices, spend more on decorations, or relocation; but a great job with the homecoming game.

What would a guy wear, just a tie and a suit? Although, males don’t have a lot to do for dressing up, however, it can get time consuming. For example, if a guy wanted to impress their date, he would have his most appealing outfit.

“I would wear a buttoned up shirt, slacks, and some nice shoes to the dance,” Leal said.

Want said, “I would wear a suit, blazer, an expensive watch and black shoes.”

Chicas said, “I would wear a suit and tie.”

Okay, maybe a few guys do not spent a lot of time on dressing up, but many still do for that special significant other.

Following this further, how tough is it to ask out a significant other for a guy.

Leal said, “The most difficult part of homecoming is to prepare to ask your significant other, it takes time to be unique in a way.”

Want said, “It’s easy to ask my significant other to the dance, it’s different for everyone though.”

Chicas responds, “If I asked a girl to homecoming, I would dress up, bring a poster, and flowers.”

In conclusion, if the individual is very special, any guy would want to go the extra mile for her.
