When did Halloween become an adult holiday ?

[Ces1ne?]

A lot of communities do things like Trunk or Treat or Mall-O-Weens to cut down on going door to door. These events usually happen the weekend before Halloween (unless it's on a weekend) so the kids stuff is done.

Like a few churches in my city had the Trunk or Treat yesterday afternoon.

Also to the OP's question it was always a holiday that everyone could enjoy, not just a kids holiday. Now the oversexualization of Halloween probably started in the 80s and 90s but ramped up more as social mores around sex became less strict.

…..basically THIS. Well fckin’ said

None of this is new. It’s just that social media throws it in your face more

Every holiday started out as an adult holiday. You grew up in a time after rich cacs started getting a lot of money selling this shyt to kids so it became a kid holiday.

Modern adults are big ass kids

Being an adult is having no fun

Halloween gives women a free pass to bring their slut out and wear revealing costumes

women were once somewhat creative with costumes. That died.

FDK is a movement I guess.

nah that used to be true. These hoes out 24/7 now

the funny thing is some of these costumes (like Velma or Catwoman) got these women more covered up than usual.

Do you know the origins of Halloween?

Holidays historically range between adult and all ages affairs but America takes holidays and adjusts them for commerce, and if you're trying to make money you're selling to women or children

Thus Halloween becoming a holiday for children to dress up and eat candy and women to be the sluts they always want to be
