    In Defense Of Sexy Halloween Costumes

    “These writers may think that women who get extra sexy on Halloween "have issues.” You know what? We do! If, to you, issues include raging self-confidence that completely refutes the notion that women ought to feel “fat” or generally bad about their bodies and themselves all the time. And the fearlessness it takes to shamelessly enjoy, as an adult, a little juvenile Halloween fun. It’s the one and only day of the year that we self-assured females can leave our homes in lingerie and a wig and not be presumed a prostitute.“ - Kyra Richards for BuzzFeed


    Agree or disagree? Other perspectives on "sexy” Halloween costumes for women?

    11. cafeconcanela said: the problem is the lack of normal costumes besides the sexy ones if you wanna be sexy fine, but if you don’t want to, you should have the choice too
