It's nowhere near October, but one ensemble is already on track to be named the most controversial Halloween costume of 2015.

Social media users were out in full force on Monday criticizing several Halloween retailers for offering a Caitlyn Jenner costume reminiscent of the former-athlete's Vanity Fair cover earlier this year.

While Jenner's supporters condemned the costume as "transphobic" and "disgusting" on Twitter, Spirit Halloween, a retailer that carries the costume, defended the getup.

"At Spirit Halloween, we create a wide range of costumes that are often based upon celebrities, public figures, heroes and superheroes," said Lisa Barr, senior director of marking at Spirit Halloween. "We feel that Caitlyn Jenner is all of the above and that she should be celebrated. The Caitlyn Jenner costume reflects just that."
 
Wow, they really shopped the hell out of that Vanity Fair cover. Once you compare it next the unaltered shots he looks terrible.

Anyway the costume is funny as hell. These trannies need to lighten the fuck up.

An Argentinian father allegedly locked up his adult autistic son alongside his wife in an iron cage in his house.

Eduardo Oviedo, 66, has been accused of incarcerating his son, 32, and 61-year-old wife, who is also said to have mental health issues.
According to a local prosecutor in the city of Mar del Plata, the prison cell had a dirt floor and was covered in rubble and bricks.

The two were allegedly locked inside the cage during the daytime for at least two years. The rest of the time they were said to be kept in an equally filthy room in Oviedo's home.

The Spanish-language La Nación newspaper reported that Oviedo even forced his son to eat animal food and drink fuel, which police found in the cage with him.

It reported the caging regime had been going for six years.
Oviedo, who appeared in court Saturday but declined to make a statement, has reportedly been charged with enslavement over the alleged incarceration.
Prosecutor Alejandro Pellegrini said police acted after two of Oviedo's other children told authorities about his treatment of their brother and the woman.

Describing the sleeping area, Pellegrini said: 'The house also had a room in the worst of human conditions where the woman and son spent the hours of the night'.
He said that room was also locked.
Other children of Oviedo's live nearby - but they are said to have been too scared of reprisals from him to come forward.

How does this compare to the life of the average deranged and poor Argentinian?

Step aside, children. There's a new mayor in CWCville:

"Gavin is transgender and has a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria. This means that even though he was assigned the sex of female at birth, he is a boy and lives in accordance with his male gender identity in all aspects of his life. He has had a legal name change and is identified as male on his driver’s license. With the permission of the high school principal Gavin used the boys’ restroom for almost two months without any problems.

"But all that changed when some parents began complaining to the Gloucester County School Board about a “girl” in the boys’ room. During two public school board meetings, residents of Gloucester County — including people who did not even have school-age children — threatened to vote the board out of office if they did not pass a new policy to kick Gavin out of the boys’ restroom. Gavin and his parents sat at the school board meeting while strangers pointedly referred to him as “a young lady” to deliberately undermine his gender identity and warned about sexual predators."
