    Kids trick or treating must be more in the bigger cities though, never seen any of those.
    Yeah from what ive always known, the idea for Halloween is that you take kids (ages 5-15, ish) and take them door to door from 530 - 730 in the evening on Halloween night, to houses with the porch light on. Ring the bell, say "Trick or Treat!" and the person gives you candy.

    The parties come from kids who have grown up and miss an excuse to dress up, but because the group is more 16-25+ crowd, girls wear less and less clothing and drink more and more.

    why do people care about shit that doesn't have to do with them? I get more out of the holiday by watching scary movies then I do dressing up. Way cheaper and requires less effort.

    Oh god, that poll is by far the scariest thing I've seen today.

    I have no problem with people slutting up their halloween costumes - because like any good pagan holiday - half the fun is the orgy afterwards

    My only serious complaint about Halloween, is all the people who half-ass it. I'm sorry, but $20 at a dollar store for some package outfit is not a costume. L2cosplay Halloween noobs - costumes should take at least a month or two of thought and preparation and labor in your spare time.

    If you're going to be a slutty witch, great - I love me some slutty witches - infact, the other 364 days need more slutty witches - just don't be a lazy slutty witch! Show some passion in your slutty witchness

    Since when are women dressing up skanky for Halloween a new thing? A good portion of women who dress for Halloween have always been doing this, at least as long as I've been alive, and I am almost 40. Also, saying Halloween is "defiled"...a basically pseudo holiday, where people decorate their yards like cemeteries or murder scenes to attract kids to come to their house to give them candy, while dressed up as something ridiculous or gory or slutty...that's a pretty ridiculous thing to say about Halloween.

    Aye, how dare people go out and have fun!

    There is a reason that Halloween is spreading worldwide. It is fun unlike most of the spirits/ancestor remembrance days around the world.

    I wonder how far would all the puritans want to go in curbing all those slutty dresses, some of them would seem to welcome something like this: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...mic-rules.html

    I haven't dressed up for Halloween since I was a kid, not really my thing as an adult. That said, I'd prefer to see women walking around dressed in slutty outfits than people trying to actually be scary. =) From what I've seen around me though, few adults opt for costumes which are actually meant to try to scare anyone, it's just an excuse to dress up.

    My only complaint is that I feel Slutty Succubii possibly deserve their own holiday?

    Slutty Halloween costumes have been a thing for at least as long as I have been alive.

    Amen to this.

    There's every weekend on the high street to ogle them if that's what some people fancy.

    Most of the things people are labeling as commercial activities were already there e.g trick or treat,lanterns, guising, games and spooky outifts.

    So seriously, why the hell do you care? Seems to be there are far more things worth complaining about than what people wear for freaking Halloween.
    Sacrilege !! These shambling masses are trampling on the ancient customs of my ancestors. There's plenty of other occasions to get drunk in silly outifts to blot out misery of their lives without dragging the rest of us into the gutter.

    What next, Hannukah happy hour? Where the plebs dress up in sexy rabbi outfits while playing spin the bottle with a driedel before impaling themselves on a menorah where the candles are replaced with sex toys.

    Sounds fun - but maybe not for a week - how about we limit it to just one day of Hannukah?

    If we do it on the first night then we can use the sex toy candles to drip hot wax on one another, but if we do it on the last night the candles will be out during the ritual impaling of the sex toys.

    Hmmm, decisions... decisions...
