There are a lot of reasons why I love Elvira (her punk dog, her bad jokes, quirky personality, love for all things spooky, determination, awesome clothes etc etc etc) but one of my absolute favorite things is how badass she is. Elvira dresses how she wants which is usually in her very low cut long black dress that shows off more than cleavage. She wears it comfortably and for no one else, she wears it because she wants to. However almost every person she runs into either chastises her for her clothes or thinks it's an invitation to sexually harass her. Naturally being the strong woman she is she takes none of this shit from anyone. If it's throwing a man out of her house, hitting her groping boss or pouring beer onto the laps of perverts she let's the world now that she is not an object for them to use. She loves her body, she belongs to herself and lives for herself. Her feminism and spookiness has totally changed my life.
