I always heard something from my neighbor that he sometimes goes to the internet bar to play the game which will use him some hero gold，he usually can win a lot of hero online gold

，then he let his friends all have some hero online money，his friends thank him very much for introducing them the hero money，they usually buy hero gold together.

I agree with the last post, and I’d like to add: smart is sexy, and MANY men and women think so. Many of the sexy stereotypes play on that smart, compassionate, stern, and in-power woman as very sexy. Also, these fantasies (because that’s what they are) play upon that which is concealed (or repressed) and revealed at the same time. You could use the same arguments here for the sexy male stereotypes, i.e.: sexy fireman, construction worker, business man, althlete, policeman… Let’s face it, there’s a whole lot of sexy out there and halloween is a time of indulging fantasy. We shouldn’t take this all so personally.

Although I am not a librarian, I want to become one. This costume is slutty, I will give you that, but I think that it helps to show that although you are a librarian, you can be sexy too. It shows that the ladies who sit behind the desk at the library and tell us all to be quiet are real women too. Women who have lives and are, in some cases, sexually active. The stereotype for a librarian now is so hard to defeat. All my friends think that I will grow up alone and have only my books to grow old with because I want to be a librarian and that isnt true. (Well, hopefully anyways.) But I think this costume makes a statment that says, Yes I am a librarian. I can be sexy too.

Your page came up as one of the top ten google searches for “sexy librarian costumes.” The only reason I felt the need to comment on your post was that I felt your commentary on the anti-intellectual or anti-feminist aspect of the costume was, in my opinion at least, inaccurate. I am currently a grad student at the University of Minnesota, and every year try to incorporate life events from the past year into my costumes (e.g. the year I went to Europe I was an explorer, the year I joined the Navy I was a hot little sailor girl, etc.), and this year I came up cold until I thought it would be only fitting to be a “naughty librarian” to speak to my love of books, and the fact that all I do these days is read. I think for you to suggest that anyone who buys this costume does not respect the profession is very misguided and a bit close-minded. Maybe it’s for all the nerds out there that wanna show off some skin for good old Hallow’s Eve. Just a thought.

I posted a link to the costume in the LJ group library_grrls a while back, and we came to the conclusion that that is not in fact a cape, but a teeny-tiny shawl.

You have to admit, that's a pretty hot librarian. If indeed she is a librarian.

What if she isn't, though? That would be a bit of a falsehood, then.

While searching for an image of a librarian to use on a sign in the library where I work, I came across the following:

* http://www.nakedlibrarians.com,
* the pin-up calendar entitled “Librarians of NJ”, and
* a blog featuring librarians who are into S&M.

Not the type of images for which I was looking, but I verified all — they are real! Oops…there goes the profession!

In Today's New York Times:
Good Girls Go Bad, for a Day: Some use Halloween as a safe space to play with sexuality. If you're interested in this thread, take a look. The article presents a number of perspectives and statistics regarding the "sexy" costume trend.

The super librarian could be a little scandalous too if it were a costume. So the naughty librarian costume isn’t too bad. If this costume could entice people in libraries and librarains maybe thats a good thing. I do not plan on wearing this costume, but my friend who is a nurse neither wears the naughty nurse costume. I did see a naughty Hermione, from Harry Potter, costume this year that was interesting, but the naughty librarian is so much better!
