Mean Girls said it. “In Girl World, Halloween is the one night when a girl can dress up like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it.” And many, especially in college, take that to heart, wearing the most revealing clothes they feel they can’t any other time of the year.

 

Even though this is something everyone does, do guys actually think its sexy? Watch Tough Love on VH1 and you’ll find the answer is no! Tough Love, a show about eight single women with romantic problems live in a house and get set up with differe men by Steve Ward, the shows host. Each week has a different theme to teqach the women different things about dating and attracting a man. This past weeks episode was about being sexy – making each women walk downa runway and take pictures, and then shows men’s comments on them. And what was the end result? Too much is too much. No one likes a girl walking around basically naked – leave something to the imagination! The women best rated by the men were confident and alluring, yet covered. So don’t listen to Mean Girls – Halloween doens’t need to be an excuse to be slutty. Enjoy Halloween for what it is – the scariest holiday of the year.
