Rapper Lil Nas X’s Halloween costume choice caused quite a stir on social media. After the rapper shared a video of him wearing a costume that looks like a used tampon. Here’s how the social media community reacted to this.
How can anyone dress like a tampoon? But Lil Nas X certainly did it. The rapper made a bold statement with his costume. In a video he shared on his social media, he was dressed as a tampon with fake blood. His outfit included long white hair with touches of red, white pants, and heels. He even walked down a sidewalk while holding a white string attached to a cutout resembling a vagina. The video concluded with a playful laugh and the background music from his upcoming release.
However, not everyone was impressed with his Halloween look. Some individuals found it insensitive, considering the importance of menstrual health and the challenges that many people face. One Instagram user expressed their concerns, saying, “I enjoy this look, but the fact that you personally have never experienced the stigma, shame, or pain involved with having a period makes me pause and think..
Another person expressing the sentiment, commented “This is so wrong; you don’t even know what we go through every month, just to laugh at our pain.” A third user questioned Lil Nas X’s choice, mentioning, “When you are a biological man who plays with femininity for attention but publicly disrespects women at the same time because vaginas and periods are like funny or scary or something.” Someone even commented that Lil Nas X shouldn’t dress up as something he hasn’t experienced.

Undoubtely the singer wore an absurd costume for Halloween. Therefore it was obvious for him to fall prey of the trolls. Instead of opting for a Halloween themed costume. He focused on wearing tampoon like costume. Maybe just to grab attention of the social media.
