Concept The basic idea of the party is that the person enters the room and selects a light stick or glow necklace in a color that best suits their status : red if you are taken (stop), yellow if you are not sure (caution), green if you are single (go) . Party guests may also be told to arrive wearing the appropriate color. Usually, the color green means that one is single and looking for a relationship. Red means that one is in a relationship, or not looking for one. Yellow may mean "unsure" or "maybe," or could mean that one is in a relationship but still open to advances. The purpose of a stop light party is to decrease the apprehension associated with approaching potential mates at parties. It also serves the purpose of providing an easy indicator of one's unavailability, to fend off unwelcome advances. The color codes derive from the traffic light signal colors indicating red for stop, yellow for caution/slow down, and green for go.
