The News is So Gross This Week OF COURSE We Got Sexy Handmaid Costumes. OF COURSE We Did.(Ferret/SC)

32. Why presuppose it is "just" the "sexy" Handmaid costumes that people find offensive?

Why assume the other so-called "sexy" costumes aren't just as offensive to someone?

Your original question was premised on your thinking that the other so-called "sexy" costumes were not objectionable to people, when they are - I assure you, they are. Even if they don't announce it to the world.

The Handmaid's costume was the costume in the OP - which is why I commented on it. Never seen one before and I find any glorification of/or the minimizing of rape to be offensive. Anyone with the fantasy that screwing a Handmaid is a turn on is someone I would rather not know or ever run into - and I'd say the same about any women who would wear one.

The costume is not about taking the power back either. Taking the power back would mean dispensing with the yoke. Playing on fantasies of a female (not woman, not person - but only female, like a woman is some sow) at your beck and call for sex - and not even sex - but rape - rape - for the purpose of forced conception is offensive.

Some so-called "sexy" outfits are in poor taste and some, like the Handmaid's costume, are offensive. As are other so-called "sexy" costumes.
