costume conundrum? crossdress! Sarra Sedghi wrote this Halloween is fast approaching us, ladies, and if you’re anything like me you haven’t officially decided what to dress up as yet. Will you choose a classic ensemble? Sexy nurse? That stupid half-angel-half-devil thing? Or, if you’re a hipster, the go-to sexy cat or Native American? Maybe you want to take a more creative approach, like a scantily-clad Hunger Games tribute. We’ve also seen a slutty bee and a sexy piece of candy corn circulating around the Internet, if you’re looking for inspiration there. Let’s face it: All those generic sexy costumes suck. You’re in luck though, because we’ve discovered a joy in something far less predictable and self-deprecating than prefabricated prostitute uniforms. Take a cue from the boys and cross-dress this Halloween. Menswear isn’t your style, you say? Let me change your mind. Just like the armada of old men that handed out all those Bibles a few weeks ago, I’ll stop at nothing to convert you. Do you want to show some skin? That’s not a problem. Nobody cares that the shorts you bought when you were anorexic are part of your Ash Ketchum costume, because you actually have a Pikachu with you and you’re helping everyone bask in that 90s childhood glory. People will look past your body and instead idolize and envy your creativity. Or maybe you hate those generic slutty costumes because you don’t want to show that much skin. I completely agree with you. If I wanted to look like a prostitute, then I’d just go out in my Sexy Pajamas and wear way too much red lipstick—and maybe a coat, just for a hint of secrecy. Once again, cross-dressing can come to your rescue, especially since it’s always really cold on Halloween. If you’ve got a clever costume, it won’t matter how covered your sex-god body is. How do I know? Last year, I dressed up as Oliver Twist and still got hit on, even though I was wearing my dad’s jacket from the 70s and had charcoal smeared on my face. I might have not ranked very high on the Slut-O-Meter, but you know what? I was hot!
doesn’t mean you have to wear a skimpy little dress and stick on some fake boobs. The most important rule of cross-dressing for girls applies to you as well: Be creative! Pick a woman that inspires you, like your mom or the best Disney Princess ever even though she isn’t really a princess, Mulan. If you want to make people laugh, throw on a one-piece swimsuit and say you’re Lady Gaga or an Olympic gymnast. Relevance is always a great strategy.
You know what else is great about cross-dressing? Guys can do it too! And boys, just because you’re dressing like a woman
It’s always important for boys in dresses and skirts to remain on the defensive. A friend of mine cross-dressed for Halloween

what’s inside
about six or seven years ago, and ended up getting his balls grabbed by a child who wanted to figure out if this chick was really a girl or a dude on his own. An incident like this isn’t guaranteed, but if you’re terrified of a stranger touching your private area, you might want to look into learning some selfdefense tactics. Our own writer Alex could even give you a few Jiu Jitsu tips if you want. So forget the overcrowded costume shop this Halloween. Just raid a guy’s (or girl’s) closet, tuck your balls (or boobs), and get started.
