Halloween may be a day to play dress-up for some, but it's a day to play slut-up for others. Let’s face it, the days of innocent bumble bee costumes are over, and the days of cleavage, legs and mid-drifts are in. The costume for the average college girl is all about skin skin skin!
In the words of the wise Lindsey Lohan, "Halloween is the one night a year when girls can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it."
FAU girls certainly take advantage of that. I’ve seen more fishnets and painted underwear on Halloween than I have at a Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Why is it that women feel the need to dress sexier and sexier each Halloween? I suppose the holiday, in general, is so appealing because for one night you get to be someone or something else and not get thrown into the psyche ward. But really, why is it that one of the things girls always seem to want to be is a slut? On Halloween, the normally inverted shy girl gets to express her inner sexiness.
Most college girls take the word "sexy" to automatically mean someone else - not themselves. So maybe, Halloween provides one day as a special day to allow themselves to become that. One study found that a person's choice of costume can uncover a particular role that a person identifies with. In other words, if a person dresses up like a firefighter, maybe they adore fire fighters or think firefighters are sexy.
But beware if the person you identify with is Paris Hilton; you don’t want to be accidentally arrested for prostitution.
Seriously, don’t be fooled into the Lohan mantra and be prepared to take some heat for your sexy costume. There are plenty of people who believe that these revealing Halloween costumes disgrace the highly respectable names of cheerleaders and French maids everywhere. Maybe these sexy costumes are being judged for good reason - sometimes being overly sexual can cause a lack of creativity.
I truly believe that every girl who throws on a halo, soaks her skin in glitter and calls herself an angel should pay a Halloween tax. That goes for all the stereotypical costumes I’ve seen this year. The best way to fight the dreaded judgments is to become creative. Take a stereotypical costume and spice it up with something different, like Britney Spears after being attacked by K.Fed.
Either way, Halloween is about being something you’re not, but that’s no excuse to be unoriginal and super slutty.
Top Five most original slutty costumes I saw this year:
5. Britney Spears, after being attacked by an angry evil K. Fed.
Synopsis: Original, interesting and sexy.
4. Rubik’s Cube
Synopsis: Although I’m not sure how this person got into the costume, the difficulty of it is appealing.
3. Barbie Doll still in the box
Synopsis: Creative and symbolic.
2.Giant Hot dog
Synopsis: Maybe it's not exactly skin revealing, but I think the sexual innuendo is strong enough.
1. Sexy female Harry Potter
Synopsis: Trust me, it deserves to be number one.

The other night (10/30) in IRT I saw two girls walking through the dorm to the outside area; they were going outside to hail a NightOwls cart. Why? They said the reason was "protection", and boy they might have needed it. I know one thing for certain, they got assaulted by every male set of eyes in IRT. One girl was walking wearing nothing but a bra, panties, and fish-nets... hott! One girl commented, "Honey, (addressing her) thats not a costume, thats your underwear". Now, I didn't want to look, however, I couldn't look away. Then I wondered why; why leave your room looking like that? Then it dawned on me... shut the fuck up Dan and let your eyes drink.
-d.
my best friend lizzy dressed up as a sexy hermoine (sp? sorry i dont read the potter books) but you would have been proud.
