A Hispanic Girl's Coming of Age
By: Alina Adauto, Jerome Ballard, Victor Manuel Correa and Linda Tarin
The Aztecs didn't consider a woman human until her 15th birthday, at which time she was admitted into tribal society with elaborate ritual. This tradition later became Christianized and is still followed by many Catholic Hispanic families on the border. A young lady makes her debut before the church and society at the age of 15 in a rite of passage known as the quinceañera, celebrating the girl's transition from childhood to adulthood. Hispanics on the border have continued the custom of making a girl's 15th birthday one of the most important and memorable events on her life. Preparations for the quinceañera often begin a year in advance, for it is usually done on a grand scale. There are guest lists and menus to compile, invitations to order, the mass, the celebration hall and band to schedule, flowers to order and, as in wedding, attendants to select. The young lady carefully chooses 14 of her girlfriends and/ or relatives [attendants] to be in her court. Each of the 14 girls, or damas, represents one year of the honoree's life, with the 15th year represented by the debutante, or Quinceañera, as she is referred to, herself. Escorts for each one of the girls are also chosen. The Quinceañera wears a dress similar to a wedding dress but with a few differences. On the border, the traditional dress is white, with a snug top and a bell-shaped floor length skirt, but this dress does not have a train. Some girls may choose a pink dress and in the Mexican interior, the Quinceañera's dress may be any pastel color with white reserved for her wedding dress. Her escort, or chambelán as he is known in Spanish, wears a white or black tuxedo. The other chambelanes in the court wear black tuxedos . . . The 14 damas [attendants] wear the style and color of dress the Quinceañera selects . . . For the complete story, see: http://www.epcc.edu/nwlibrary/borderlands/10_a_hispanic_girl's.htm
