Halloween 2007

Wednesday, Oct. 31, 2007 - 12:02 a.m.

Hey, by the way, the day after I got here, Dave took me to this Supercuts, where I got a magnificent haircut from a gorgeous curvy brunette named Jennifer Brown.

Ask for her if you don't see her, because she is a fantastic stylist as well as an excellent conversationalist.

A cut and blowout will run around $27 not including tip, and it was a genuine pleasure to get such a great cut for a reasonable price.

I highly recommend this product or service.

Now then. This is one of those "I woke up and the world went crazy while I'd been asleep" kind of things.

Apparently, retailers are claiming that dressing like sexy whores on Halloween is now an acceptable and trendy thing for prepubescent females to do.

Sexy pirate. Little Red Riding Whore. Sexy kitty. Sexy waitress. etc etc

Not only is this premature sexualization kind of stupid, it's not being forced on boys.

Guys can still find full coverage costumes like beer cans and boxes of fries. No sign of sexy doctor or sexy football player or sexy police officers for the fellas at all.

It should be scandalously obvious what's going on here.

The people who sell the costumes want to make the same amount of money using less fabric.

Suppose you have thirty yards of fabric.

You can make five full-coverage outfits with it, at twenty dollars apiece, or eight 'sexy' outfits with it, at twenty dollars apiece.

The extra money is not worth what's being done to children.

Anyway, however you choose to observe it, have a blessed Samhain, a happy Halloween, and/or a fun Fall Festival.
