    Yeah, you do. You have some pretty extreme views in that case.

    No, people are entitled to seek what they want. Sexuality can be empowering for many people and if they're in an environment they want to be in, let it be. Generally adult 'halloween parties' are just costumed club parties. People want to mingle, drink, have fun, and/or sleep together. There is no reason to ban sexy costumes from these sort of events, for the same reason you wouldn't ban cut out dresses from the club. If you don't like seeing that sort of stuff, you shouldn't hang out around it and try to police those that do.

    It's only trashy if it's some sort of family/community event. Otherwise, Idc. Life's life. Clothing isn't always telling of self worth.

    This thread make me laugh. When I was 17 my mother was running a very large charity garage sale. That year we got a TON of Halloween costumes donated and all of the people volunteering wore a costume on the days the sale was open for fun. I choose a sexy witch costume, it was slightly revealing but it was easy to move around it as I was working the sale which a very large warehouse building.

    A woman came up to my mom and complained about me, saying "I looked like a whore, slut and she was incredibly offended". My mom replied " That is my daughter, she has been in a long term relationship for 2 years with the same person, works PT, is a straight A student and has put in hundreds of hours volunteering here over the past few months." The woman went silent and just walked away.

It only makes people think they're after one thing, and they shouldn't want to have to demean themselves to such a low standard just to impress someone else. Costumes are supposed to show your interests or jokes or personality. Sexy is a personality trait, I guess, but not the kind that would make a partner stick around long term, if there's nothing else there to back it up. Maybe some people are shallow enough that it would be enough for them, but they're not the kind of people that will make you feel good if something happens and you're anything but perfect.

    I'm not going to go as far as say that it's the cause of rape like some people, but people aren't going to care as much about your personality if the first thing they see is your body on display. When everyone and their mom is doing it, then what exactly sets anyone apart from the crowd except minute parts of their body?

    I think sexy outfits should be illegal. Who wants their kids to see that anyway?
    Your issue is you are pushing your concept of why to wear a costume onto other people. Costumes do not inherently show your interests jokes or personality, they are just a costume that people want to wear for various reasons.

    Then you continue to push your idea of what "kind of people" those that a sexy outfit will attract will be.

    Once you can see past your bias here and realize that the entire world isn't defined by what you believe about stuff, then you will not give as much of a shit about these kinds of things.

    People dress however they wanna dress. I aint gonna judge them for it.

    Although if the argument should be about anything is about how tacky store Halloween costumes are. Better off making your own I say

    Is there such a thing as respect for any adult who dresses up in make-believe? Not against it, glad people have fun dressing up, just saying is all. Never saw a guy dressed up as Elmo and thought to myself "I totally respect that guy"

    Definitely have lost respect for people like Justin Trudeau who make poor choices dressing up.

    Ah, there it is. It's interesting that you're cherry-picking the "sinful" stuff you agree with, while ignoring the "don't be a self-righteous cunt" parts.

    Agreed. And frankly, a woman who owns and isn't afraid to express her sexuality is much more attractive than some puritanical chatterbox.

    My ex did that. Though she always pestered me for an opinion on new clothes, which she promptly ignored and then "filed away" under, "Take me back to the clothing store so I can return all this stuff that I spent 3 hours shopping for but didn't bother to try on while there so I can spend another 3 hours finding more stuff I'll return later."

    First off, the temple of satan isn't really that bad, you're thinking of the church of satan, they are very different. Secondly don't judge people for wanting to enjoy themselves on halloween, its the only time of year they get to dress in a costume and not be judged for it. If you want to dress like a sexy nurse, or a sexy minion, or a sexy tax accountant, or even a sexy John Oliver, then go for it, or don't. You don't have to dress in a sexy costume, just wear pants instead of ass-less chaps and go as a regular cowboy instead, nobody will care either way. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to find the right sexy clown costume to buy...

    I might be more responsive with someone I actually like in a similar outfit, but for the most part, my original comment stands. Furries are nasties. I'll be nice and not dock you points for posting a chic with implants.

    Dressing up in a sexy pikachu costume does not make one a furry.

    It does if the outfit is furry. To be clear, it's not the character I have a problem with, it's the mix of "sexy" and fur.

    It's not the same thing though. There is a difference between a person wearing a costume with fur and someone who is actually a furry.

    Cosplay =/= Furry

It's possible to cover your body while still being appealing it's not like anyone expects people to start wearing super baggy sweaters. They do it all the time anyway, wearing just regular jeans and a t-shirt.

    I believe the term for this is called dry humping. :P
