09/18 etiquette

Quote From: karenw

Kyla was legally yet inappropriately attired for a flight. She was unable to sit down without providing a Fruit of the Loom exposure. At least she had Fruit of the Looms on unlike Britney's ongoing exposure. Without a stated dress policy code prohibiting what she wore the airline employee acted inappropriately by chastising her.
 While many think that Kyla's choise of wardrobe was inappropriate, and maybe it was, maybe it wasn't.  First, I'd have to ask, while positioning yourself for a flight, putting away carry on luggage, settling your child into their seats, are people actually "looking" to see if her  or others wearing a short skirt  if "Fruit of the Looms" were being shown?  Also, if they were "Fruit of the Looms" how would you know without being close enough to see the label"?  Personally, I would be more embarrassed to look in that direction.  Also, I just feel there are more important things to think about and focus on.  Kyla obviously needs to take the brunt of this situation, and probably will learn that a more conservive attire might be in her best interest, especially since our public seems to be paying more attention to the actions of others than themselves.   Was Southwest in their rights by having procedures in place for a "dress code",  I'm not a lawyer, but  unfortunately we live in a society that if you sneeze in the wrong direction will provoke a lawsuit.  So sad!!! When will people start taking responsibility for their own actions instead of blaming others for their actions or results of their actions.  I think people need to pay more attention to what they are doing instead of what others are doing.  If Kyla dresses that way on a regular basis, so be it, whom is it for us to judge.  She wasn't naked or performing some lewd act.  She is just an individual that is attractive and feels comfortable in such attire.  I've definitely seen alot worse.  If I had been on that plane, I would have never noticed her attire and couldn't have cared less unless she was obviously showing more of herself.  And if I did, it would be only a moments passing before I pulled out a good book to read on the flight.  People need to relax!!!!!!!!  There are more important things to think about.

You want a dress code for women on airlines?

Fly the Iranian airline. You'll get women all covered up there for sure, and for all I know, there may be separate seating for women.

 

I hate seeing people  anywhere, men or women, dress a way I consider "cheap." On the other hand, when some people make a point of throwing their piety in my face by the way they dress I don't like it either.

 

I mean chill out folks. As long as there is no dress code, they shouldn't have hassled her.
