Default Women kicked off planes for being too sexy

Southwest Airlines has apparently been kicking women off of their planes for dressing too sexy. I don't think their clothes are too revealing, I think they both look pretty good and wouldn't mind having them on one of my flights

Hope its not a stan

Sounds like a male flight attendant power play to me, and probably very uncommon. SouthWest is usually very friendly so this is pretty surprising. Her skirt is pretty short, but she shouldn't have been kicked off. Although I will say I think in general a lot of people dress inappropriately for airline travel. Sweat pants/pajamas and slippers shouldn't be worn in public, much less on an airplane. Of course she is thinking about filing a lawsuit over this, give me a fucking break... :roll:

The stories have said nothing about if she was camo. They got a complaint from an other passenger. My understanding she covered up with a blanket and proceeded on her flight.

“She looks like every other college girl in San Diego.”
How close is UC Hastings College of Law to San Diego? Maybe I should consider going on exchange there!

That is pretty revealing, and the employee had cause for concern. He also had to authority to do what he did. No lawsuit there. Airline are common carriers, but they still can get rid of you if they want.

She's a butter-face. That's why she got kicked off.

You are correct sir. It actually was her shirt that was a problem and not her skirt. When she went on tv and pictures were taken of her, the outfit was different. She still flew on her flight, but covered with a blanket. This is coming from a Southwest Airlines Employee

I heard she is a "hooters" employee.

Get on national TV, screw up a simple question on a teen beauty contest, or just ware something revealing on a Southwest airlines flight.

Haha, she's filing a lawsuit to get an apology! Typical public interest legal action.
