Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year. After all it’s the one time of year where you can pretend to be something your not. It is a goofy and silly holiday where people are trying to be clever and silly with their costumes. Girls and women are more likely to feel comfortable transgressing gender boundaries when it comes to choosing a costume. On Halloween I saw more girls as captain America than boys as Elsa the princess. Children should be allowed to be whatever they want dressing up as a character is meant to be fun. Children are usually the ones who don’t really focus on gender its adult that perpetuate it. Halloween costumes are supposed to be fun. Too much stress is put onto kids forcing them to do what is socially accepted.
