Halloween 2016

You know what though, yeah everyone is going to be Harley Quinn but she RESONATES with a lot of people. She’s fun, she’s out there, she has a cool aesthetic, she’s sexy, she’s loud, she owns it, she’s SMART, she’s dangerous, but most importantly she’s different! She’s part of nerd culture! She’s not simply a “sexy cat” or “sexy vampire”, not that there is anything wrong with that, but women are clearly aching for more cool characters like Harley Quinn to dress up as. Because let’s be real, if there was an actual huge selection of readily available popular cool characters to play as, not everyone would be Harley Quinn this year. And that’s not women’s fault.

Harley Quinn is also a cute, easy costume to put together.

this is the visual representation of the “i’m not like other girls” mentality

every damn halloween i see about 20 batmans per year. i don’t see anyone making fun of them tho

People are shitting on women for dressing up as a character who was manipulated and destroyed by a man, only to escape the abuse, cut all ties with him, and become a more powerful version of herself in her own right. Gosh, I wonder why that costume would be popular and/or appealing to women.
