Women Use Halloween as an Excuse to Slut it Up

There are some feminists up in arms claiming that Halloween has turned into Dress-Like-a-Whore Day, but we say, what’s wrong with that?

Is it not possible that a witch can be evil and sexy? Sometimes it’s necessary for female referees to wear super-short mini skirts and push-up bras. And everyone knows Little Red Riding Hood is secretly a big whore. Yeah, sure she was on her way to Grandma’s house.

Rebecca Colby, 28, a library clerk in Milwaukee, said the appeal of sexy costumes lies in escaping the workaday, ho-hum dress code.

“I’m not normally going to wear a corset to go out,” said Ms. Colby, who has masqueraded as a Gothic witch with a low-cut bodice, a minidress-wearing bumblebee, a flapper and, this year, most likely, a “vixen pirate.”

“Even though you’re in a costume when you go out to a party in a bar or something, you still want to look cute and sexy and feminine,” she said.

Is there anything hotter than a sexy librarian chick dressed like a slutty pirate? If there is, I don’t want to know about it.

What do you plan on being for Halloween and do you plan on slutting it up?
