Talking to the Huffington Post, Andie Boyd came up with the idea to dress as a vagina on Halloween after watching Mean Girls. She said she heard this quote and knew what she had to do: "Halloween is the one night a year when a girl can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it."
Thus, Boyd told the Huffington Post, she wanted to be the "sluttiest" thing possible and the "most hush hush thing you could be while at the same time chipping away at double standards in our society:" a vagina.
According to Boyd and the Huffington Post, there is a distinct double standard in American society between men and women. She said that "female anatomy should be as present in society as the male anatomy," implying that people regularly dress up as a penis.
"Not everyone she knows was supportive of the idea, however," the article reads, as if it is weird that someone would be dismissive of someone who wanted to dress as a vagina in public, possibly in front of children. "Boyd says that when discussing the costume idea with a coworker, they actually responded by being grossed out...
"To Boyd, it was reactions like this that convinced her she needed to go ahead and follow through with the costume," the article continues.
In the end, after much trial and error, Boyd made her costume, which turned out to be an overwhelming success with her friends.
"My friends loved it and strangers seemed to enjoy it as well," Boyd said. "It also proved to be educational as my roommate as a gay male had never had much exposure to the female anatomy so I was able to teach him as I was crafting it."
According to the Huffington Post, Boyd "hopes that her costume will continue spark a conversation and break the barriers to discussing women's anatomy and health."
So much for the feminist complaint of the male-objectification of women. Porn is Queen.
I see a representation of labia majora, labia minora, and clitoris. There is about the same number of vaginas in that costume as are found anywhere on hormone-taking, cross-dresser Jenner.
Fail.
what... no bloody string coming out of it???
Did an abortion come out of her costume in parts?
Vulva la France!
Everything is politics with these idiots.

No hands on experience I’m guessing, no wonder
he’s still confused.
Newton came up with the idea of the gravitational force while observing falling fruit.
Einstein came up with special relativity by observing the lorentz invariant nature of Maxwell’s equations.

Did anyone mistake her for a taco?
Fish taco???
Of course! ; )
Are you perhaps saying that Andie Boyd deserves this breathless Huffington Post article for being creative for designing a Vagina Costume about as much as Muslim teenager Cl(ah)ckmed deserved to be honored as an inventor for taking a 1985 Radio Shack clock radio out of its plastic case and putting into a pencil box?
How DARE you interupt the Liberals in the construction of one of their original memes??? They don't like that. It causes them to get upset. . . or have to ignore inconvenient facts.
They can't have anyone figuring that out, can they? They might hold their breaths until they turn a red state blue!
I kind of think that anyone who dressed as a rampant male sexual organ would be arrested. I think that would be considered obscene by about 98% of the population.
What a waste of space this LIB fool is.
She keeps using that word. I do not think it means what she thinks it means.
