Another sign our society is doomed: Senior prom court names
Posted on 4/20/23 at 11:18 am

Every morning I receive our local HS's email announcements. Today's included a paragraph reminding Seniors to vote for their prom King/Queen from this list:
McGwire
Maddux
Bryson
Taylor
Hallie
Taylor
There is only one name on there which is gender specific. WTF is with these parents? (Most are young Gen X with a few old millenials sprinkled in.) And WTF happened to the football team owning these courts? None of these little frickers are athletes.
If brings to mind this George Carlin bit.
And this

I just hope that you have a kid at, or some other vested interest in, that school.

This really isn't new and has been going on long before you were born

Those top 3 are pretty solidly masculine and Hallie is definitely a girl.
Taylor can be either.
Not that I would put anything past white people these days.

Well, you raised them, so....

These are the same names people have been mocking since they were in travel ball. They're growing up so it makes sense.
bad news is you have to hear them for another fifty (or so) years.

It can, but a male Taylor is pretty rare these days.

Which one is the gender specific one?

Half of those are last names.
I knew a girl years ago whose first name was Collins. I was like what is her last name, Jessica?

Little known fact I saw on the TikTok: Taylor is a white supremacist name because it is derived from a confederate soldier named Zachary Taylor.
They are wrong about they Zachary Taylor died before the Civil War started.

On another note, Michael, the most common boys name in America from 1954 to 1997 was also the name of the Actress who played the mother in the TV series The Waltons. Her name was Michael Learned.

Big Mac was 6/19 with 2 dingers in his career against Mad Dog. Pretty damn good.
