In another life, I was a costume designer. Therefore, Halloween is seriously one of my favorite holidays because it was the one time a year I got to wear my creations instead of see them on others. But Cady Heron was right when she said “Halloween is a time when a girl can dress like a total slut” without repercussion. Not only can they, it’s expected.
Halloween is also a great night to meet people. But with this ridiculous “slut rule,” if you don’t dress like a slut, you may not get as much attention as everyone else.
But usually, I almost completely ignore the slut rule and wear something long, beautiful, and historic. And one year I got a great vote of confidence from a drunk girl:
“I just haaaaaaad to tell you, you are covered up, you look comfortable, and you are STILL. SO. SEXY.”
Yep, it wasn’t a guy, it was a girl. But hey, she was right that I was covered and comfortable, and I like to think she was also right that I was looking sexy! Not only that, I spent most of my night silently smirking at those girls who were walking around the literally-freezing city in next-to-nothing, just so they could go home with a man they would regret waking up next to. But hey, to each his own, and whether you’re abiding by the slut rule or not, Happy Halloween, Daters!
