Extra Extra! Halloween slut parade?


“Halloween is the one night a year when a girl can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it.” (Lindsay Lohan, Mean Girls). While this quote is very true it should’ve stated that NO-ONE should be able to say anything about it. We the Halloween Hotties have had enough! We will not stand for the constant hate any longer. Although we are not here to lead a slut-parade, we are however here to take a stance on what we believe in. And that belief is being able to show what the good lord gave us one night out of the year. The way we feel about the “slut label” is simple…it strengthens the power of patriarchal dogma! Basically governing the sexuality of a woman and her body that are beyond oppressive. This just will not work for us. The Halloween Hotties just will not take it. Society already holds women to a high standard of feminine beauty. Which means women in society today are really only valued for their outside appearance. So we ask the infamous question, “Why can’t we be sexy for you guys”? Isn’t that what you want?  Don’t you want our extremely fitted leather, our skin-tight skirts, and our busty tops? Well whether you do or you don’t we are here to tell you TOO DANG ON BAD! We will strut our stuff all night on Halloween in our thigh high boots and cat suits!
Even with our strong views towards the need and want to wear these things we do have a few proposed solutions for those who can’t take the sexy we have to offer:
  1. DON’T LOOK!
It is very clear that you all have these marvelous things called eyeballs that are controlled by one person and one person only, YOU! Keep those things elsewhere and off of us.
  1. DON’T PARTY WITH US!
In this wonderful country (also known as the land of the free) you have the right to pick and choose the events you attend and the company you expose yourself to. So don’t choose us.
  1. GET OVER IT!
There is absolutely no way you can change what someone wants to put on their bodies. So get over it!
  1. JOIN US!
Have you ever heard of the phrase “If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em?” That is exactly what we want from you all! You know you can’t stop us so you may as well join the fun!
                                                     
                                     
Those were simply our four suggestions for the Halloween Haters. It is undoubtedly the most atrocious thing that people do when they speak negatively about what us girl girls choose to wear for Halloween. We already have to struggle with maintaining a certain level of beauty but then you all complain about us having too much beauty! I mean what do you really want from us? We cannot continue to battle with this every Halloween season every single year. It has to end! We are no longer putting up with the constant disrespect and labels that you all place upon us.

Many make the assumptions that we are empty vessels or attention whores but we are the exact opposite. We get all the attention we want and need year ‘round so we don’t have to beg for it on Halloween. We simply use that Holiday as the one time a year to allow every person to be as confident as we are even if the normally aren’t all year. And what most people don’t understand is sexuality isn’t just expressed on Halloween, it is expressed every single evening at night clubs, parties, etc. So why won’t you all label those girls? Why aren’t those girls having to put up with the “Slut Label” like the Halloween Hotties are? Well, maybe they do put up with it but it is not nearly as much as we do!
There are many reasons that you all bring to the table about us dressing this way one night out of the year which are just not logical. Some say it is because our upbringing and that our mothers showed us no love as youngster, but that is where you all are wrong. Our mothers taught us to be women and how and when to let our sexuality show! So if we choose 364 days to be prissy little princesses and 1 night to be the exact opposite then guess what, THAT IS OUR DECISION!
Really we just use Halloween as the one night to be something we really are not! There is a level of excitement in dressing up as something that you wouldn’t day be on a regular day. It is meant to be fun and allow people to express themselves. We should not be held bondage to the 1980 Halloween costumes of cowgirls and princesses.NO, we don’t want to be hideous creatures, or the bride of Frankenstein (we’ll be her if our dress is short enough to show the garter). We want freedom. And the freedom we want is to show our sex appeal! IT’S JUST HALLOWEEN!

  2. I enjoyed your Manifesto! :) Yes, I agree it was funny . I mean really females should be able to wear whatever they want to wear for Halloween! & I loved the little moving pics with the words on it.
