I wonder what would happen if a guy who works at Chippendales tried to fly to a Chippendales show in his outfit? Or just wore a skimpy pair of shorts and no shirt. Are men required to wear shirts? If it was then discovered that he worked at Chippendales (if he was just wearing those shorts, or shorts and a lil tank), what would people think?

Actually it goes to character, shaping of attitude and respect of others.

She would probably think it would be ok to wear her work uniform to Mass, and claim discrimination if she were ask to leave and some imbeciles here would attempt to defend her 'right of expression'.

Again, the judging. You have no idea why she's working there. Don't pretend to. And the whole "she would probably" thing is ridiculous. And calling people here "imbeciles" is childish and rude.

No I listened to her interview, no aspersions.

So not even knowing her you think you are qualified to judge her character, attitude, and respect based upon that photo and the situation? Would you enjoy being judged in that way?

Are you saying God doesn't like Hooters? I'm pretty sure God likes hot wings and doesn't care what you wear...

Noooo, I listened to her interview, studied her demeanor, even after all of this, did you?

What does the interview have to do with her employment, her dress code at church, or really anything you've mentioned?

And why the attacks on users?

Well your initial post said nothing about the interview (and everything about her "skanky" clothes), but now you are saying that's what you made your judgment on? So which is it really? Yes I saw her Today interview and I couldn't form any judgment about her character, attitude, and respect-other than she seemed like a pleasant person and had a lovely smile. That's about it. I guess you are a qualified expert in media analysis of people or something, just based upon one interview.

And yes, you should refrain from calling people here "imbeciles". I believe that's probably against the rules.

Well based more on the facts of the case as they unfolded and her interview I side w the airline.

We view this differently, and I think she had her skirt hiked up made a stink about it and got her just desserts.

Now she's all over the media trying to play the victim and some people like you are gobbling it up.

And if a dinkus male dancer jumped on the plane and his appearance were deemed offensive he should be treated in the same manner.

And to attempt to extrapolate the argument to religions such as Mormonism, somebody wearing a Mormon T Shirt, or a Muslim dressed in Muslim attire to skanky dressers is quite a stretch and only shows a weak minded argument.

It still comes down to clothing and one person's interpretation of what's offensive and what's not. It still comes down to a subjective call, not an objective one.

You can't see the correlation or answer the questions, so you resort to name calling like most of your posts and most 4th graders, that's what's weak minded.

Owning an airline, guess what? You get to make subjective calls, so get over it.

You have other options in this country for mode of travel, and I would encouage you to dress appropiately there too, or you can try wearing a thong and riding your bike down Main Street and see how far you'd make it with your Jonny Cash attitude.

The attendant doesn't own the airline.

"People like me"? Is that codespeak? How clever.

You think she had her skirt hiked up and made a stink-that is what you think. What are the "more facts" and the facts from the interview that made you side with the airline? So if these facts exist, why resort to calling her dress style "skanky" and making all of your other judgments? If such facts exist, that isn't necessary-right?

If airlines get to make subjective calls then Mitt Romney t-shirt problems could be right around the corner. Personally I'd rather look at a crotch.

Johnny Cash was a pretty incredible human being, he was well aware of his own faults and failings and not judgmental of others. I don't know why you have to resort to bringing him into it at all, it's completely irrelevant.

I certainly don't think she even thought there was a problem with her attire upon boarding the airline. I don't know where you get the idea that she thought to herself, "I'll dress inappropriately and make a stink if anyone disagrees." Maybe I'm misinterpreting your thoughts, but that's the jist I get with your "hiked up" comment.

And, as BVS said, this person didn't own the airline, so I don't understand what you're saying.
