What is "too revealing" in public?

[tanya]

Question.... Do airlines have that right? If so, what is too revealing?





But now!

Southwest Airlines, after getting grief for telling a young woman her outfit was too revealing to fly, is now using the brouhaha as a marketing ploy

I'd like to think a business is free to serve or not serve whomever they wish (no shoes, no service). However, we know that has long been gone. So, was it Southwest policy to enforce a dress code or just an over-zealous employee? If a company does attempt to enforce its own standards, it risks offending large groups that can seriously impact the business.

I saw the young lady and didn't think her clothing was too revealing, but my standards may be less strict in that regard.

Men! So visual

I don't get it? Her skirt is not very short and her breasts are totally covered?

Sounds like she was headed to a Utah Elementary School.

After viewing the picture I'm going with "over-zealous employee".

I would really like to see a pic of the employee who though this was "too hot".

I just can't help but think the "over-zealous employee" might be holding the sign in the picture below.

I notice that these 3 girls must not have done too well on the Hooters Application Test.

I remember reading the original article and the employee was a guy. As I recall, somebody theorized that another passenger was jealous of her body and complained in an effort to make trouble for her. Sounds plausible to me.

Wow! That worked Well! The woman got tons of attention... was invited to be on the Morning Show.... probably a lot more shows and has that attractive body splattered all over the net and TV.

I wonder if that jealous passenger realizes what she did for her.

Not every airline is the same, I guess...

Flipflop

Cute


My leather flip flops have metal button like things on them and I get pulled out to be searched every time I go through one of those. Hubby thinks I just enjoy it or I would toss those shoes.

The last time we flew to Florida to see my mom, the TSA guy pulled me aside, saying I had a knife in my bag. "I do?" I asked. "Yes sir," he said, and with my permission and help, he dug around until he found it. He held it up.

"ABBY!"

She walked over to me and realized she had put her pocketknife in my bag instead of her checked baggage. She frowned and thinly said, "I just lost my knife."

Happy ending: at the county fair earlier this month, she found a new knife she likes a lot.

You'd think you'd feel that...

Man, they're inconsistent. I've been through twice with knives accidentally in my carry-on bag. Once a little Gerber single lockback blade, once a 4 piece Swiss Army knife. Another time, I had my nail clippers confiscated.

I'm thinkin' - maybe I need to pack more carefully?

On our trip to the Bahamas as a family my youngest son was searched because he had a 'compass' in his school supplies box...they conficated the compass, while many severely dress (according to recent standards) women walked right through seems they came right from the beach
...we were delayed for well over half and hour just for that one

I didn't think her outfit was "too hot to fly."

However in that Today Show interview, she went to sit down after standing up (photo posted) and you got a camera shot of her underwear.
