So let me get this straight... on an appearance on the Today show -- to make her case for NOT being a slut, no less -- she declined to wear undergarments?

Sound judgment I'd say. :rolleyes:

It is the Britney Spearsification of America.

You obviously being the forum expert on ladies undergarments should know.


Ok folks - SB called it.

She was in fact wearing said "undergarments".


She's still a scab tho.


BTW: Where did Southwest not let her fly? She said she straitened up/pulled down her skirt and went back and sat down. Everyone was looking at me she said.

So ummmm....did she get denied the flight or not?

I am utterly lost here.

She flew with a blanket over her lap.

As far as the outfit she was wearing, I'm sure that for the tv show she pulled her top up and her skirt down more so that it was somewhat decent, at least she she was standing.

If a woman wears a skirt that's about 3 hands long, she knows that there are going to be stares. If the airline deemed her inappropriate, who cares. Like any privately owned enterprise, it's their decision who can and can't use their service for whatever reason. Her rights weren't violated, or any of the other silly notions she got into her little pea brain.

If she wants to dress like she makes her living on her back, she can do it on her own time.

That is bull. If they are consistent about it then it would be fine. This just seems like one or two employees of Southwest just had their own personal agenda and standards and our full of themselves because they hold some form of power. This does not sound like Southwest's company standards and guidelines.

As shown in the earlier pics, South West made their name in their 1st 5 years by highlighting their single, all female, 20-something flight attendants, and their "Hot Pants" uniforms.

Coupled w/ their "We move our tails for you!" slogan that they were so proud of, they're looking really stupid right now.

I've flown SW prob 50 times from Dallas/Love to Brownsville/ S. Padre Island, and there's been times I've been on flights w/ gals wearing their bikini's, covered by an open button-up shirt, short shorts or less.

They made a very poor decision, which I'm sure will end up w/ the obligatory, "undisclosed amount", out-of-court payoff.

That was a different time, and I'll guarantee that a woman didn't decide on that uniform or slogan. That was back when flight attendants were stewardesses and did what men told them. My how things change.

If they give her any money, that would be pathetic.

That is what it's all about. Mom was frothing at the bits to tell the story w/ the family attorney sitting next to her grinning like the cheshire cat.

Aw, I think of myself as more of an aficionado than an expert... I do like the girls that come with the gift wrapping... :D

I keep telling you, I'm smarter than the av-er-age bear...

She's still a scab tho

You say that like it's a BAD thing...

I am utterly lost here.

I'm guessing it was the sudden flash of white that caused it... LOL...
