Preteens Trading Fairy Wands for Fishnets
Gabby Cirenza wanted to be a referee for Halloween.
The outfit she liked had a micro-mini black skirt and a form-fitting black and white-striped spandex top held together with black laces running up the flesh-exposing sides. She looked admiringly at the thigh-high black go-go boots that could be bought as an accessory. And she thought the little bunny on the chest was cute.
"Absolutely not," said her mother, Cheryl. "That is so not happening." Gabby Is 11.
Bawdy Halloween costumes, however, have become the season's hottest sellers in recent years. Not just for women, but for girls, too. And parents such as Cirenza don't like it.

'It's the most popular display among the kids.'" From the UC Davis Department of Entomology.
