Caitlyn Jenner Halloween Costume Sparks Internet Outrage: ‘Disgraceful,’ ‘Transphobic’

Costume company Spirit Halloween is facing serious backlash after offering a Caitlyn Jenner costume in time for Halloween.

The costume recreates Jenner’s look when she debuted as a woman on the cover of Vanity Fair in June, complete with shorts, a padded top, a wig, and a sash that reads, “Call Me Caitlyn.”

Twitter blew with expressions of anger about the costume, with some calling it “disgraceful,” “hurtful,” and “transphobic.”

Some humor for the day. Maybe if the model was wearing heavy makeup like Bruce did, it'll be better? I can see some 'outrage' if some guys with beards and cigarette butts or beer cans in hands wearing the customes. But this? That's mild.

Highest form of flattery? ..... lost on the internet outrage. Who demands Halloween to be PC?

Hurtful? Oh, they can p### off. They don’t get to control the dialog.

They just don’t like the fact that Jenner would look like the guy on the right without all the plastic surgery and professional makeup and hair. (and airbrushing)

I think what torques them the worst is that the model guy’s “package” is obviously showing. It reminds them that the fraud, BS artist “Caitlyn” Jenner in the slinky dress still has all HIS tackle, too. What a bunch of twisted maroons!

No, they’re upset that the guy in the ad has a bigger package than Jenner.

That’s my ‘understanding’ too. Everybody can make fun of something/someone as unPC as possible.

Not everybody wants to be in a pink princess dress with little ponies.

(sigh)

I agree - it’s absolutely hilarious.

People go out, do outrageous things, and then expect - no, demand! - that we bow down to them and their aberrant behavior.

Not me.

LOL…proving once again that the Left has no sense of humor. Kudos to the politically incorrect who saw an opportunity to make a buck out of this idiocy.

I’m sure the same folks are equally outraged over the offensive Donald Trump costume mocking his hair! Lol.

But when Jenner puts on women’s clothes and makeup he’s not disrespecting actual women? I’d say that Bruce is gynaphobic.

“Call Me Caitlyn.”
Is that a take off of “Call me Ishmael” from Moby Dick?
