This dad is fighting back against 'cute' Halloween costumes for girls, and it's adorable
John Marcotte John Marcotte
AS ALL PARENTS will know, it can be quite difficult to find a Halloween costume for girls that isn’t some variation on the witch or princess theme.
Sick of the costumes on offer to little girls, a father has now stepped up and decided to do something about it.
John Marcotte, a father of two girls, has set up the #MoreThanCute campaign to encourage parents to “create costumes that tell girls that — even though they are adorable — that is not the only thing society values”.
He has asked parents to share their little girls’ costumes on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram with the hashtag #MoreThanCute to “demonstrate that we value girls because of their strength, their creativity, their intelligence and their ambition”.
And parents are already taking part.
Whoops!
