Halloween is just around the corner, and for women, this means it's a rare, exciting chance to be objectified, noted "The Daily Show's" Senior Women's Issues Correspondent Kristen Schaal during last night's episode.

Commenting on the trend of overtly sexual costumes for women, Schaal exclaimed, "The fact that women get this one night -- only one -- out of the whole year, to be viewed as sexual objects! And, we get to choose what kind!"

"When my mom was growing up in the oppressive olden days," continued Schaal, "she only had two options for Halloween costume. Sexy secretary or sexy meter maid. But in these modern liberated times, a woman is free to be a sexy whatever-the-hell she wants."

Options now include (but are not limited to): Sexy pirate, sexy nurse, sexier nurse, and even sexy inanimate objects like sexy guitar and sexy carrots. What more could a girl ask for?

And sexy ladies, when you come back from Halloween festivities, you might want to round out the night with some Men's Rights Movies.
