SAN RAFAEL, CA, October 28, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- America's first-ever Sadie Hawkins Eve Cougar Party takes place on Saturday, November 14, 2009, 8pm-Midnight, at Sinbad's Restaurant, Pier 2 along the Embarcadero, San Francisco, CA.
"There have been thousands of Sadie Hawkins Dances over the decades," says Rich Gosse, Organizer of the party, "but this is the first-ever specifically for Cougars. The old Sadie Hawkins theme is perfect for today's modern cougars, because Sadie personifies the single woman who doesn't wait for men to come to her, but rather, pursues them."
Sadie Hawkins Day, an American folk event, made its debut in Al Capp's Li'l Abner strip on November 15, 1937. Sadie Hawkins was "the homeliest gal in the hills" who grew tired of waiting for the fellows to come a courtin'. Her father, Hekzebiah Hawkins, a prominent resident of Dogpatch, was even more worried about Sadie living at home for the rest of his life, so he decreed the first annual Sadie Hawkins Day, a foot race in which the unmarried gals pursued the town's bachelors, with matrimony the consequence. By the late 1930s the event had swept the nation and had a life of its own. Life magazine reported over 200 colleges holding Sadie Hawkins Day events in 1939, only two years after its inception. It became a woman-empowering rite at high schools and college campuses, long before the modern feminist movement gained prominence.
"Fortunately for the bachelors," says Mr. Gosse, "they don't have to marry anyone at this party. But at the very least, we expect them to say YES every time a cougar asks them to dance. Sadie Hawkins Day is a wonderful opportunity for single women to be assertive and get what they want in life, rather than follow the disastrous strategy of playing hard to get. " Rich Gosse, author of eight books on dating, is available to the news media to discuss Sadie Hawkins Day in the context of cougars fulfilling their romantic needs, by calling 415/479-3800.
The Sadie Hawkins Eve Cougar Dance is open to adults of all ages. $20 at the door includes dancing to your favorite hits. Dress to impress. Anyone who wishes more information about this and many more cougar parties may visit http://www.CougarEvents.com or call 415/507-9962.
