I haven't dressed up or gone out for Halloween since I was in 4th grade. Does that mean I'm a complete dud, or what? :p

Franklin Street Halloween this year!!!! ****ing awesome.

My bf wants to go as john Lennon and Yoko Ono, but I think i'm going to go as the costume below.

the bottom will be a bit more of a tutu though, my bf wants me to write Mary Magdalen on my stomach though, cause if he's not Lennon he's going to be jesus.

that's not a costume...thats just lingerie. If you write mary magdalene on your stomach, basically the same thing with some sharpie marker.

Gotta love halloween, gives such a wonderful outlet for girls to grab attention.

I'm very aware that it is just lingerie. But believe it or not the above costume is considered modest for Franklin street, considering it is mainly topless girls running around.

So you're explaining your modesty by comparing it to chicks who run around topless....

a 250lbs chick is still fat standing next to a 300lbs one; and a girl wearing a bra and tutu, even when standing next to a topless girl...
but you'll get loads of attention.

well, guess I'm gonna have yo walk you through this one. No matter what you compare it to, a girl walking around in a bra and tutu is obviously begging for attention. tons of girls do it, not only on halloween either.

Your reference to skiers was cute. the difference is, a chick walking around in a bra and and a tutu has no reason for it other than to get attention. Same goes for a guy walking around in a spedo and bow tie for a chip and dale costume.

a skier in a race suit is concentrating on their sport. it's required for downhill racers to wear racers. thats it, thats all.

thanks for coming out though.

No offense, jibber, but i really don't need you to walk me through anything ~ especially since it would appear that you missed the fact that i was just jerking your chain, there...

Professional dancers would not fall into your category of attention grabbers, any more than skiers. A dancer is concentrating on their job. The costumes are not the dancers choice, any more than the race suits are the skiers choices ~ it's just the nature of the beast.

Before dismissing me, you might want to consider that this entire thread (and our Halloween tradition) is dedicated to what you call 'attention grabbers,'

so you jumping in when a female says she's going to dress provocatively?

Just sounds like a bad case of sour grapes, girlfriend...
