Ya know, there’s nothing wrong with anyone of any sex wanting to be enticing. Sometimes we all want to get our bits out and have other people gaze on them admiringly. But when being enticing becomes the expected female default state, then it’s just boring old sexism & objectification. It’s not even sexy and fun, it’s just a drone-like “Here I have hauled my bosoms out for your inspection, please approve of my performance of femininity, yes I find it flattering that you would like to insert things into me, let us proceed to the insertion point of the evening.”

So I have been daydreaming lately about getting some kickass chicks together one Halloween to dress up as sexy versions of inherently unsexy things as a giant “fuck you” to the patriarchy. You know… Sexy Yeast Infection. Sexy Bloody Underpants. Like that. And I was sure my people would be able to come up with even more ideas. And they did!
