10 sexy, last-minute Halloween costume ideas for the gays
So it happened again this year. You waited ’til the absolute last minute, and now, with Halloween less than 24 hours away, you still don’t have a costume to wear. But don’t worry dear, sweet procrastinator! We're here to help.
While many gays love a complicated and well-thought-out costume, that path is not for everyone. It can be time-consuming, expensive, and hard to come up with. Thankfully for the gays, we have one type of costume we can always rely on: sexy ones!
There’s a long and proud tradition going back years of queer people using Halloween and costumes to show off a lot of skin and leave little to the imagination. With that in mind, here are 10 perfect last-minute costume ideas!

Do you have a yellow speedo? If you do, put it on and paint your cheeks red and you can be Sexy Pikachu! This costume also works for other Pokémon (red = Sexy Charmander, green = Sexy Bulbasaur, blue = Sexy Squirtle, etc.)!

Barbie was the biggest movie of the year, but if you don’t have time to get a blonde wig and dress, just hop into a pink speedo and tell people you’re Sexy Barbie!

If you’ve got a mustache and a red speedo, Sexy Mario is a great costume idea, no overalls needed! Just try to find yourself a matching red hat and paint or tape an "M" on it.

Sam deal as the Sexy Mario costume. Or, if you’ve got a mustache and a green speedo, you can be Luigi, and spend your Halloween night looking for a Sexy Mario to complete your set!

For a super classic costume, put on a red speedo and devil horns, and you’re the Sexy Devil! Nothing’s sexier than temptation!

If you’re looking to be the Sexy Angel corrupted by a Sexy Devil, put on a white speedo, and voila, you’re a Sexy Angel! Wings and a halo would make your costume more recognizable, but they’re not necessary.

Bugs Bunny in Drag is a classic, iconic Halloween costume, but if you want to make it more simple, put on a gray speedo and bunny ears and you’re Sexy Bugs Bunny. Carrying around a phallic carrot is optional too!

If you want to celebrate gay Pride during Halloween, toss on a rainbow speedo and you’re a Sexy Rainbow!

This costume works best if you also have a Ghostface mask, but honestly, it's not necessary. All you need is a black speedo and you can be Sexy Ghostface from the Scream franchise!

The Oscar trophy is already a sexy, naked man, so all you have to do to be the same is put on a gold speedo!
