Slutty Halloween costumes: who actually wears this stuff?

Don't get me wrong, I love Halloween and all that comes with it. That means costumes, costumes, and more costumes. Still, when I see things like this slutty Pacman costume from 3Wishes.com, I can't help but wonder: what woman would actually wear that?
Sure, 3Wishes is known for its kinky, outrageous outfits, but it's not just those guys who push the idea that we women should dress like strumpets each October 31. Every Halloween store I've ever walked into -- bless their horribly tacky souls -- has had Playboy bunny and naughty nurse outfits. Each time I pull one off the rack I wonder, where's the rest of it?
Honestly, I'd bet these are the types of things men buy for women -- and then women promptly never wear. "Hey, honey, I got you a leather bra with Pacman and Ms. Pacman on your respective boobs. And there's a ghost hiding on the panties. Hot, right?" Insert slapping noise here.
Thoughts, dolls? Would you wear/have you worn something like this for Halloween?
P.S. Check out Urlesque's list of "Girls Gone Mild" Halloween costumes. Hilarious!

"Strumpets" ?? Very 14th Century!
Don't be so down on the video game costumes.....

Seriously, WTF?
Posted 10/15/2008 at 08:50:07 PMI have a problem with the tacky 'naughty nurse/schoolgirl/policewoman" outfits that goes beyond dressing like a strumpet (I love that word) - it's that they generally tend to be really unimaginative, mass produced, plasticy tat (or, y'know, someone's actual underwear). Put some effort into your costume, people!
Mmmm....naughty nurses....
Posted 10/16/2008 at 07:47:30 AMI make my own costumes every year. I'm a doll this year and no, not a "sexy" or "slutty" one. Just a cute-no cleavage-covered up doll. Who remembers playing with dolls as a child? They were not sitting there in tiny skirts and fishnet stockings with their rears hanging out. (most of the time)
Posted 10/17/2008 at 07:04:21 AMSlutty costumes are gross.
Have imagination and keep your clothes on.

No offence but some peeople may like to wear these things? it can be pretty fun and i think your being quite sexist supposing men automatically want girls to wear that...
Posted 10/20/2008 at 09:39:37 AMSome woman liek showing off what they feel confident about and if that means a pac man bra then so be it.
Go naked if it makes you feel good
Im going slutty this year and so is everyone else, get over yourselves to be honest...
I own some of those costumes...but the only other person that gets to see them is my husband...
Posted 10/21/2008 at 09:01:02 AMand I think that a lot of other ppl use them that way too
I live in Las Vegas. You should come to vegas on halloween and go to any club on the strip and you would think that that costume you are bagging on is conservative compared to what girls will wear!! Loosen up a bit. We get one night to be slutty a year it's fun to dress up and be super sexy!!!

Posted 10/23/2008 at 12:05:23 PMI've noticed a trend too: THE ONLY GIRLS COMPLAINING ABOUT SLUTTY COSTUMES EACH YEAR ARE UGLY CHICKS!
Just because you don't have the body to wear these costumes and actually look hot doesn't mean everyone else should cover up too.
Posted 10/30/2008 at 07:35:43 AMLesbians dress like this...they don't give a shit about men and they get all flushed and excited when women see them as sex objects.
Or maybe elementary school teachers, so burnt out on corraling people's kids that they just want to flaunt their sex and have some in-your-face intensely hot passionate belly to belly banging...
