With No Real Rhyme or Reason

If you choose not to participate in the trend of wearing risqué costumes, more power to you. However, I think it’s dangerous to develop a superior attitude toward other women who want to show some skin. In other words, do your thing, but respect other women who feel confident about their bodies. I recall on a Halloween a few years ago when a woman screamed “sluts!” out a car window as she drove past a group of scantily clad women. For the guys who witnessed that incident, it may have reinforced the acceptability of using those terms. If other women wearing those types of costumes really bothers you, it may be time to examine exactly why it gets on your nerves. Imagine if women complimented each other when they saw each other out in skimpy costumes, and defended each other against sexist, slut-shaming remarks? It would certainly make my Halloween a lot better if women viewed each other in solidarity.

Here’s another helpful Halloween tip. If women choose to be a sexy zombie Snow White, LET HER BE A SEXY ZOMBIE SNOW WHITE.

I seen ‘slutty’ costumes that are awesome-as-fuck and others that are very creative, forget the Mean Girl philosophy and support your fellow girls.

sometimes it occurs to me that halloween is, on many levels, a good holiday for spreading education on multiple concepts.
