Campaign for superhero Halloween costumes for girls - BBC Trending

Should girls be cute for Halloween ? These kids disagree !! 👿

These little girls couldn't find any costume that looked like their favorite superheroes ! They only found costumes that looked cute with tutus ... 😒

But whyyyyyyyyyyy ?? According to their father, society tells girls to be cute as it tells women to be sexy. What a shame ! 😔

Even if his daughters like being cute, they want to have the choice ! 💥

To denounce this issue, he started the hashtag #MoreThanCute to show that girls can be what they want to be. ⁨💪

So let's go girls, let's be Batman for Halloween ! 🦇
