Halloween costumes are a very obvious way to see roles of masculinity and femininity. Men and boys are expected to be manly, strong figures, like firemen, super heros, and the like. Girls are expected to be cute princesses and women are expected to unleash their sexy side. Just another way to play up stereotypes. I thought that this photoset does a good job of displaying just how ridiculous the "sexy halloween" costumes are becoming in the US. My personal favorite is the sexy first edition old man and the sea. Hemingway would be proud.
