admin Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Halloween season is here, and that means it's time for stores to start rolling out their DUMB and sometimes totally inappropriate costumes. And here's the first one of the season . . . A website called Yandy.com that sells Halloween costumes, lingerie, and Halloween costumes that are basically lingerie, just introduced a sexy costume based off the outfits from the Hulu TV show "The Handmaid's Tale". If you haven't seen the show, it's about the scariest possible direction a misogynistic culture could go. Women are forced to wear specific outfits and have sex with powerful men. So to turn those outfits into a sexy costume is a pretty massive disconnect. Yandy was selling it for $65, including a short red dress, a red cape, and a white bonnet . . . but after a day of SOCIAL MEDIA OUTRAGE, they pulled it off their site last night.
