If Girls' Halloween Costumes Were True To Life

This parody Halloween ad shows sexism only STARTS at Pretty Pretty Princess.

Looking at kids' halloween costumes, you learn some extremely vital lessons: boys can grow up to be powerful athletes and superheroes, and girls can grow up to be... cute. 

But as our parody Halloween store ad "If Little Girls' Halloween Costumes Reflected Real Life" shows, sexist halloween costumes are just the beginning when it comes to the discrimination girls and women face over a lifetime. 

Turns out teaching children to value women based on their appearances from Pretty Pretty Princess age on doesn't contribute to a culture of gender equality. Can you imagine?!?
