it started with nutella, and ended with vomitting in my mouth

so, i was going to tell you about how i feel like a small french child this morning, with my coffee and toast with nutella. this led me to search for a picture of a french child to really drive that whole message home. while i imagined waves up on waves of small white kids with curly mustaches, berets, striped shirts, some baguettes and possibly a cigarette, what i found was a disturbingly creepy child's french maid costume.

here's what's creepy about it: this is a costume generally reserved for college girls going to "pimps and ho's" parties or middle aged women that want their husband to still think they're sexual objects. now, if the title said, "boy's french maid costume," it might be a little different. maybe it would be a funny costume for 12 year old boys that are comfortable with their sexuality or maybe it would be a poignant statement of how young boys that wore this costume feel about the portrayal of women in their role as servant within our society, but that's not what the image is selling to me.

and, well, and let's not forget the underlying creepiness of the costume and remember why the general public is horrified with the objectifying "hobby" of child beauty pageants. the fishnet stockings went a couple levels too far...
