Skank-o-leen

alright, so i checked out two halloween shops last night and went home empty handed. not only did i waste my time, but i also gained a little more insight on sexism. seriously, if you're a female and you're looking for a costume, just expect to be anything slutty. and by saying this, i mean no offense to the girls that just like to strut their stuff; more power to you. but what about the more conservative girls that just want to be something fun for halloween, without being mistaken for a stripper? after two locations and three hours spent, i saw the common theme of: breast and legs (did somebody say 'chicken?')

a friend of mine overheard a conversation between two females while standing in line-

girl 1: what should i be for halloween?
girl 2: it doesn't matter, just wear something sexy
girl 1: oh, i have this really short dress at home, maybe that'll go with it?
girl 2: it doesn't matter, just make sure it's really sexy!
(this repetitive conversation went on for another 5 minutes)

it's all about sex these days! whatever happened to being classy and mysterious, or leaving some room for imagination? forget about keeping a little surprise for that special someone, let's just put the entire package on display for everybody to see.

i mean, were these people generalizing woman by assuming that we ALL want to dress like skanky whores? (again, sorry if this offends anybody; i'm just a little peeved by the reality of the situation) it's just not fair that i have to go without a costume, simply because i refuse to walk around feeling naked. hell, i might even wear something like that (believe it or not) if i were in the privacy of my own home, and if I was with someone i really cared about; but other than that, i don’t want to feel like a piece of meat with a bunch of carnivores walking around ready to season me and throw me on the pit!

call me a prude, go right ahead- it's mostly true, anyway. so now i'm without a costume and running out of time....

this sucks! eh... maybe i'll just wear all white and say i'm bright.

::disappointed::

On the not-so-naked-side: FISCHERSPOONER tonight! HELL YEAH!
k, i'm done.

UPDATE: i found a costume! not gunna say what it is, though :p
