Because Halloween has always been about PC and good taste. That's why 90% of the costumes at Halloween USA and Spirit Halloween make women out to look like whores and the rest are caricatures of politic figures and a priest costume has a penis you could inflate with a hand pump.

Not saying it's not offensive but most of what we wear on Halloween is offensive to someone.

	P.S. To the mousie on wank_report that was so insistent upon the reporter being the one to do the write-up- wank_report isn't just for mice. It's also for those who are unable or too lazy to do a decent write-up so they put it up for someone else to grab. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I would say that's more the costume-maker's faults for being asshats. The Party Mania down the block has some wonderful stuff that actually manages not to be tasteless. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lucky you. I'm surrounded by Party City stores and the T.V's been blaring "HEY KIDS COME GET YOUR WHORISH/SEXXXY/SLUTTY COSTUMES OH AND BRING YOUR MOM TOO" nonstop for the past two weeks. Ugh. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eyuch. I can't even bear to go into Party City, the place is so trashy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	My local ones are relatively clean and well managed. I have no idea why their corporate thinks it's a great idea to air those ads here when they could just let the places speak for themselves. But what do I know. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Tell me about it. I wanted to be Snow White this year (I never got to be a Disney princess as a kid) and I went to about a dozen places before I found a costume that didn't look like this. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jeepers. Kinda makes that whole shacking up with seven dwarves thing look like a porn production house. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	My Robin costume ended up looking fairly slutty, but that's less the costume shop's fault and more mine for picking out a costume sized for a nine year old boy. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	People with axes in their heads are insensitive to real people who have died of axe murders! (Reply to this)(Parent)
