Acceptable Flight Wear Or Not?

[spathiphyllum]

Very simple, is this acceptable flight wear or not?

Spath, I do believe that you have just opened a can of worms, or, in this case, two cans:)

IMO she's an attention seeker.

[sanmac]

And, to answer your question, definitely not unless your motive is to become "newsworthy".

[spathiphyllum]

hahaha Oi Oi

I think wear what you want you know.. But then if someone made an inappropriate comment, or maybe one they saw it as a compliment, would she uproar again?

The world is a diverse place, one where not everyone can have their way. I think she made a pigs ear out of the situation and should have just put her jacket on if i was on the plane and she was making a protest about it it would annoy the hell out of me.

Good for her she stuck to her principles but, i mean.. it did get her kicked off the flight.

The older lady makes a good point about the others on the flight, and how life isn't always fair regarding rules an regulations. If everyone made a protest then the world would cease to flow.

I mean i wouldn't say the attire is unsuitable.. but i do think if ask'd to put more clothes on she should have just bit her tongue and done it. It's unfair to compare it to a males clothing but if a male was wearing that top i'm sure they'd be ask'd to put something else on or cover up also.

Who knows.

Not acceptable in my view but I worked in a Doctors clinic here in Portugal and in the summer we had to put up a sign saying no bikinis or trunks without clothing on top, no bare feet and preferably no too much sand. Also no naked children. Not kidding

[spathiphyllum]

She probably wouldn't be allowed in a proper restaurant to be fair.. I class this as a crop top

I class what she is wearing a bralette.. Just because it seems crochet and bohemian doesn't change what it is. However, i wouldn't be complaining on the flight, only when it started to delay it by half hour.

[Neveracrossword]

Spath, was she kicked off the flight? I thought she donned the jacket a relative provided.

[MargoTester]

She was not kicked off the flight

[spathiphyllum]

Yes apprently she put on a jacket and was shaking and upset.. does she know our grandfathers and mothers went to world war?

[Canary42]

Mail scraping the barrel as usual.

[sanmac]

And I suppose that she was also gob-smacked, offended, mortified, and humiliated to such a degree that she is now on pills, tablets, and, Scotch.

Another passenger disputes some of Emily's claims.

My view for what it's worth is that she was under dressed for a flight, that's a bralet - I wouldn't have made a fuss about it though.

The rules should be more specific rather than leaving staff to try to interpret them.

[MargoTester]

The crew member should have a a quiet word with her instead of making their comments audible to half the plane. A man on the plane was wearing a vest and shorts, no doubt with hairy armpits on view, should he have been asked t cover up?

[maggiebee]

As said on the Jeremy Vine show "what about men with huge beer bellies barely covered by tight tee shirts" Should they be asked to cover up?

[spathiphyllum]

OOOO mamy how controversial!! Love it

I believe the man.. He to me is an independent witness.

[Mamyalynne]

It's another angle isn't it?

I have no clue, I wasn't there.

[spathiphyllum]

Margo hairy arms are a futile point but i understand what you're saying.. This women is potentially objectifying herself instead of repulsing people though which i'm sure is why staff said something. I doubt she repulsed anyone like a fat sweaty hairy man would.

[spathiphyllum]

Yes it's the best angle for me I was hoping maybe we could get perspective of others from the flight

[andres]

She looks like she hasn't had time to dress. Looks like her bra.
