On what day, according to the American comic strip, "Li'l Abner", is it okay for a girl to ask the boy out?
Correct answer: Sadie Hawkins Day

We used to have a Sadie Hawkins dance at my high school. It was many moons ago. Wonder if they still have them? I didn't know this bit of history, so thanks for the info.

There really was a Sadie Hawkins day. So, out of an entire year, there was only one day, that society deemed it proper for a woman to ask a man out. Many men still do not react well to a woman asking them out.

That is interesting.

Player nawa, we had that dance too. homely gals crawled out of the woodwork.

Player nawa, we had that too. There was also the tradition that the couple would wear matching shirts/tops. Not sure where that came in.

Good catch, lol
In the Wikipedia article about Al Capp, "Andy Capp" is not mentioned. Apparently no relation.
Andy Capp is a comic strip character, and the name of his comic strip created by Reg Smythe.

There actually was a theme park near Harrison Arkansas called Dogpatch. Very popular for many years but now defunct, the property recently sold to a developer from out of state.

WaldoLydeker, The buzz phrase politically incorrect is simply an underhanded way of saying I still wanna be able to be bigoted, crude and insensitive to the feelings of 'others'.

Scottish Fraulein, Sad that one would not defend against their rights being trampled upon. Some say it's un-American.

Player Unicorn 1, it would now be politically incorrect to make fun of hillbillies. Even that moniker is passe.
