You know the old Halloween is Slutoween adage. An annual October ritual where normal chicks indulge in their inner porn star. Hemlines rise, cleavage is pumped—a bloody prom Queen looks like something out of a fetish video and men never realized how attracted they were to Smurfette. Oh that blue skin! It's the most predictable of predictable, with many of us drifting into a lazy costume. We think: why not just put on a skanky leotard, handcuffs and cop hat? 7 Easy, Last-Minute Couples Costumes

Got breasts? Let 'em pop, baby. Dress? Hike that hemline so high that sitting doubles as a gyno appointment. No bra, no problem. Too tight? Nay. Not tight enough. Dress Your Way to Better Sex

I once dated a guy who clothed himself almost exclusively in band t-shirts, pleated trousers, and an ever-present fanny pack. (And no, he wasn't a German tourist.) I remember thinking when we met that I'd finally cast eyes upon the archetypal rock critic. That he actually was a rock critic made the experience all the richer.
