This next article from the New York Times was written by Jennifer Boylen, a transgender individual. She exposes American views on Halloween masks, and what your choice of costume can say about you.
She comments that as opposed to other eras, political masks are down, no one wants to dress as President Obama. Could there perhaps be a direct correlation between sales and the public viewpoint?
The most popular costumes nowadays are unrealistic; sexy nurses, vampires, and other creatures of myth. I believe this could say a lot about the state of American idols, people would rather delve into fantasy than dress as a real life person.
