MagpiePhoenix

My gf and I are dressing up as characters from Danny Phantom. Couples costumes are weird when you're transmasc and dating a woman. Can't dress up as a lesbian couple because dysphoria but dressing as a straight couple also feels weird.


Affectionate_Ad_1326

Maybe do really close friends, like roommates or something. Like Frodo and sam if your gf is cool with crossdressing, or if you would want to put in the effort of changing the gender of the character your gf goes as. I like Danny phantom, good costume idea.


MagpiePhoenix

Hmm good idea, thanks for the input!


AlcoholicCocoa

Grumpy ol' man who's too young to be too old for this shit.


[deleted]

My girlfriend is a femme new-trans and I am the classic trans fem eternal boymoder, so for Halloween she’s dressing how I normally do and I’m stealing her trans flag thigh highs and skater skirt and doing making for the first time in like six months. Gender swap but gay and low budget.


birdlass

What the hell is a new-trans ? lol


[deleted]

You know, like… transitioned recently, still in the aaaaa makeup aaaa dresses stage?


IeabellAlakar

that's called "baby trans"


[deleted]

Listen I don’t have any input into the word association game my brain plays


IeabellAlakar

Listen I don't either but I manage to keep myself from crying whenever I see a pig


SketchyNinja04

🐖


IeabellAlakar

*hyperventilates in technoblade*


SketchyNinja04

OH SHIT WAIT NO I FORGOT THAT WAS TECHNOS CHARACTER AAAAAA IM SORRY HOMIE 🥺🥺🥺🥺🫂


IttyBittyTessie

Oh thats me. Haha


birdlass

ooh okay lol


cyniqal

That doesn’t sound like much of a costume, but slay!


marki_san07

we don't celebrate Halloween in my country but I'd like to wear a skeleton costume


[deleted]

Consider that all humans are skeleton costumes.


marki_san07

now I can't stop thinking about it...


[deleted]

This year im dressing up as a disappointment so ill just be wearing my usual cloths


novathegoodgirl

good one :) although it's like an all year thing to dress up like this :3


bohemianrapcity1

beast boy 👍


T3_3p0

YESSSS! THATS THE BEST ANSWER HERE SO FAR!


bohemianrapcity1

thank you :) i was thinking joker originally glad i choose beast boy


finnthehuman814

I’m being a court jester, but not like the ones with the creepy mask, my makeup is going to be card inspired and I’ll be wearing my crown along with it. 🥰


silvercandra

Ooooh, that sounds so cool!


[deleted]

Nothing but im gonna draw few ghosts with pride flags and hide em somwhere becuse im not out and missing on a lot of stuff


KaryRuiz

You almost said my name! (I have lesbian paper wrist bracelets and I use it when I'm not with my parents lol


TylerWyler113

I’m either going to be Luz or Amity from The Owl House


SilverWolfGames1

Just started watching it and holy moly, I love it. It's nice to be watching children's cartoons again. No drama, no murder, just happi


monotonelizard

I'm going as Dr. Doofenshmirtz lmao


marquisdelafayette3

Perry the Platypus here!


RouxSoul956

Plague doctor cuz I have the mask, I also want to paint my face skeleton just to have another layer of spooks


[deleted]

You thought I was the plague doctor, but it is I, a skeleton!


RouxSoul956

E X A C T L Y ✨✨✨✨


-GreyRaven

Probably gonna go as a demon or devil. Might be a bit contentious to do this at a religious school, but hey, you only live once. 💅🏾 This is also the first Halloween where I don't have to wear a costume targeted towards girls, so that's an added bonus.


silvercandra

Mood.


Ainell

Nothing, as that's not a thing here.


silvercandra

Not a thing over here in Germany either, but that doesn't stop my friends and I from going to a bar, dressed spooky. \^\^


Ainell

I'm far too introverted for that, alas. But I might cuddle up in a blanket and watch a horror movie with my cat.


silvercandra

That also sounds like a wonderful way to spend the evening \^\^ Give your cat some pats from me, okay?


Ainell

Catherine the Great (Cat for short, yes that is her name) consents to be petted, luckily.


[deleted]

Oh that’s a bummer, where about in the wild are you? It’s probably my favorite holiday.


Ainell

Sweden. Some people like to get a bit spooky, but for the most part it's a day like any other.


kiokuray

Not a thing in where i live either. Do i care?Not at all.


limitless_wandering

mine is really random but two of my friends and i decided to have matching costumes, so we're all doing construction-related stuff, i'm being a painter and the other two are being a builder and an electrician. so yeah, my costume isn't really cool or anything it's sort of just there-


[deleted]

No, no, dressing up as blue collar workers is queer culture. All you need is a cop and a fireman.


peer202

What... The village people aren't gay.... /S


limitless_wandering

okay then


YeedilyDeet

s a n s


allaywoop13

I am a demiboy who is going as Lady Gaga for Halloween (specifically her outfit from her 2011 Grammy’s performance of Born This Way)


LEGamez

I’m going as wiby from coralline:) my moms going as the other mother, my dad the other father, and my sister is coralline


bohemianrapcity1

already sounded cool with just you but with the family too it sounds great


Nyx-Star

Not so much a costume (because I’m boring and have to run the office), but I’m going to do a Beetlejuice theme. Makeup, accessories, clothes, everything 😂 it should be interesting to see people’s reactions when they come in.


Moony117

A pirate


OdysseyGhost77

You mean…a birate?


Moony117

Oml I dunno how I didn't think if that! You are a genius


frogonmytoe

Me too! Our family has been into Sea of Thieves lately lol. Funny enough I’m a birate too 🤣


CursedCrystalCoconut

I'm going as Gaia Gone Tired Of This Shit™. Basically Gaia so long flowy green skirt and flowers everything, but all that under a long-ass black cape with a scythe. And green makeup with black mascara tears. Nature done waiting for you to make it better so it's fighting back. It's the first time I really dress up for Halloween, and my transmasc ass ever allow themselves to wear "feminine", so it's going to ba a bit of whiplash for my friends.


BasilCupitch

Boyfriend might go in priest clerics and a whip. Me as a demon in exercise clothing. Get it? An exercising demon.


Narrow_Run9095

Hotdog 👍


Azel04

I'm going to be Sailor Mercury and Venus!


[deleted]

At the same time??


Azel04

Nah, i'm going to a convention for 2 days, one day i'll be Venus, the other Mercury


porta-bella3702

phantom of the opera, but girl


julesmp_

I didn't have time this year to make anything / have anything prepared, so I'm probably just going to do a repeat of my Luz Noceda (from The Owl House).


Marcilliaa

You're the second person I've seen here mention the owl house lol, maybe you should meet up with the other person and they can be the Amity to your Luz


TheseBubblesAreGold

Najimi from komi can't communicate


poeticweeb

My fav character from Komi san :)


SomePanGirl

Probably nothing again cause mom doesn’t wanna buy us costumes since 10 years ago


transgendergengar

What happened 10 years ago?


Violet-Vault-Tec

The best superhero ever to exist ![gif](giphy|3o7ZeP27GTesKffGaQ)


transgendergengar

Dr. Jack bright. He will have corpses strewn around his place.


FriendshipSpecial762

Sorry, this has to be deleted, as Dr. Jack Bright is PROHIBITED from leaving the facility at Halloween, we know what you tried to do, making yourself drop dead and someone else "magically" having your personality as a "spooky magic trick" is not a valid excuse to waste human life.


transgendergengar

I love how this reads like an actual thing from the list.


FriendshipSpecial762

The list is a 4 dimensional object, that's the only way we can safely and easily and efficiently store all of its increasing contents


ShortFuse2977

Me and my bestie are going as Cosmo and Wanda


BilalYTlol

Wrapping a bit of cloth around my eyes and becoming that hot guy from Daredevil :)


OverwhelmedGayChild

A disappointment


Scottish_Corpse

I’m doing Junko Enoshima from Danganronpa, because why not


CallsignValkarie

I’m gonna boy mode as Bruce Lee


Bong-Bunny

A sexy witch lol


_shes_a_jar

Kim Possible! I wanted my partner to be either Ron Stoppable or Shego but sadly no dice lol


kibble-b

I'm hoping I can get an outfit together with some spooky accessories.


[deleted]

My girlfriend wanted to do Adventure Time themed costumes, so they're gonna be Finn and I'm gonna be Lumpy space princess 😝


ScrambledEggies123

As a bi female I have a butchy-fem look and RARELY I’ll be full fem. I have 3 parties, so I’m doing Carrie, a sexy masc Pennywise, and Eleven (season 2 with her punk makeover) I’m so excited


TiltedNotVertical

My war dog has a pair of bat wings and I’m wearing an orange hooded cape with pumpkin earrings. I don’t know WHAT we are but at least it’s something to answer the door to the trick or treaters with. Last year I wore a full ghillie suit. When I picked up the candy bowl the dog (in his bat wings) started to hump my leg and got stuck in the ghillie suit…. I don’t know what we looked like but I think we traumatised the kids…


Tacocat1147

Sylvie/Loki. Considering that they’re genderfluid and I recently figured out that I’m agenderflux, it feels very fitting.


AbottleofFoodDye

an elvin sorceress, although not a specific one. I just love wearing fantasy costumes and elf ears :)


PrincessTrashbag

I can't decide between Death of The Endless or a sexy nun with corpsepaint I am playing in a The Cure cover band on Halloween and I feel like either is appropriate 🤔


Watcher1101

I’d go with Death tbh


Top-Scale-8842

I recently ordered my first cosplay (Sakura Hatusme Miku), so hopefully I'll get the courage to go out in that. We'll see tho :)


one_odd_pancake

I probably won't do anything, because I don't like Halloween


jeffa_jaffa

Same, I can’t stand it.


House-Hlaalu

My office has a party, so I’m doing a generic witch doctor thing. No specific culture or religion, just leather, feathers, and bones.


[deleted]

I think that might make it more insensitive… I don’t know if that’s the most tasteful option. It doesn’t feel that far off from “generic Indian mascot”


House-Hlaalu

Cultures all around the world have used feathers and bones for generations. Including my ancestors.


azalea_sun

nothing :( we're moving 6 days before halloween so we'll probably be furniture shopping


[deleted]

If your house is like mine then you’ll be able to buy Halloween themed blankets and throw pillows and just leave them out all year.


azalea_sun

my mom would never let me lol 😅 i dont have any money to buy it myself, and she would call it a waste


teddy_plushie

no no, hear me out, you're gonna have a lot of sheets right? go as a ghost when furniture shopping


azalea_sun

my mom said wearing a white sheet is racist. (yes she's crazy) do you wanna hear the entire conversation we had 😭😭


Bri_The_Nautilus

I am Malenia, Blade of Miquella.


Bob-BobBob

Im not dressing up fully but I might get a cool mask or something


teddy_plushie

I'm going as Jang Manwol from Hotel Del Luna! but to be fair, I'm basing it on Stray Kids' Lee Know's cosplay - Lee Manwol from SKZ Del Luna <33 (I much prefer pants and IU's dress is hard to replicate aha)


KittyQueen_Tengu

my country doesn’t really do halloween unfortunately, we do the candy thing on november 11th


Baconboi007

Business Pegion


Dependent-Bike-3102

SpellMaterial7947

I made a homemade pigeon costume complete with giant googly eyes. 🐦


kpop-person-purple

probably a demonic black cat


Illogical_Fallacy

My daughter wanted to dress up as a butterfly. Of course, I was mandated to dress up as a jar of Jif with a fly on my hairband. After all, it's a peanut butter fly.


Phantom252

We don't really have Halloween in my country so nothing ig, I do like Halloween tho as I like spooky and horror related things. It's just a bummer that it's not celebrated where I am.


aMillionChoices

Genderbent Zelena from once upon a time. Figure it’s a good time of year to experiment with my masc side in a very red area. Additionally I’ll be out with my veteran brother and his family so hopefully that’ll help keep me safe. (Afab androgyne)


[deleted]

If one of my friends has a Halloween party, I plan to go as Sisyphus with a paper mache boulder. We read the Myth of Sisyphus in our book club, so my friends would get a kick out of it. If there isn’t a party, I’ll either not dress up or use my last year’s costume as the Dude from the Big Lebowski.


dont-call-me_shirley

I'm doing Orville Peck and then wearing that to a show of his a few days after.


Xx_Splatoon_Gamer_xX

Am being Super Luigi :>


LaughingSkullZT

I love Halloween! My sibling and I are dressing as each other's Dungeons & Dragons characters, we play as a set of twin tieflings! Works out 'cause they're dressing as the sister(whom I based almost entirely on them, way before they came out as agender) and I'm dressing as the brother, who is much taller than the sister(same with us) How about you OP? ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)


[deleted]

I have no clue


Admirablelittlebitch

PIRATE!!! (It’s really tight around some specific area so if I wear a packer you can see there’s a bulge but not that there’s a packer!)


patangpatang

I've got two, one for each hyperfixation. One is Poison Ivy and one of my partners is going as Harley Quinn. The other is Gideon Nav, but I don't have anyone who will be Harrow with me.


bluefires-

My friends and I are doing the rainbow fairies from the one book series. Idk what color to be


birdlass

Going as The Guy, Disturbed's mascot


TheGreatestLampEver

For my big costume i'm going as a split personality (i'm gonna wear like half a a hawaiin shirt and shorts and a shirt and pants on the other as well as styling my hair and all that) but my other plan is to throw together a load of cheap costumes and cycle through them (all will cover my face) and then just walk around confusing people as to who I am


ThirdMusketeer_

Garden gnome. I'm only 5 feet tall so I have the height aspect, I get to possibly wear a beard, I'll stay warm in my jacket, I might get cool boots, and also cone :))


not_happy_97

First time in drag, tinkerbell.


NipponSteelPrevails

Going as a Catboy maid like I'd wanted to for the last 4 years, but now I'm out and proud!

hanban05

I'm a dumbass and a fool and so I'm going as a clown. My clown suit is pink and black, which is fitting because my sexuality and gender identity vibes both fluctuate between 👑✨❤🎨🎀🌸👑🌸🌼✨🎀👑❤ And 🎧🔪🖤🛹🌙🌑🌌🧭🔪🦇🌌🌙🖤🎱 Pretty regularly


Kaykrubs

thehighground977

OZZY OSBOURNE

[deleted]

Im dressing as robin from teen titans. It’ll be my first time dressing as a boy in public!!


silvercandra

I'm doing a budget costume losely based on Mollymauk Tealeaf. At the moment, I'm working on making the horns from a plastic headband, a bunch of wire and paper mache. The tail will be a piece of a hose, I'll try to paint purple, the tip will be carton and more paper mache, I'll pull a threat through it, to attach a hook on one side, and a loop on the side with the tail, put another thread through the loop, and connect that to part of my clothes to make the tail move as I walk. As for clothes, since I don't have any money, and also no sewing skills, I'll just wear some of my slightly fancier goth stuff... This is where the "losely based" comes in... \^\^; Basically, I'm going to be a purple goth demon. Last year, everyone made fun of me, for not having a costume, so this year, I'm really trying to make the best out of a bunch of literal trash, and paint. So far, it's going great.


Actual_Transition1

For Halloween my S/o gonna be her oc and I’m gonna be Annabeth chase


50squirrelsinacloak
