Sadie Hawkins dance

A Sadie Hawkins dance or turnabout is a usually informal dance sponsored by a high school, middle school or college, to which the ladies invite the gentlemen to be their dates. This is a gender role reversal, contrary to the custom of the gentlemen typically inviting the ladies to be their dates to school dances such as prom in the spring and homecoming in the fall. These dances are primarily an American tradition.
