That’s what I call some in-flight entertainment.

Keith.... You’re a HOMO!

If you pull that mini up to just below her navel, her genitals will be in full display.

You say that like it's a BAD thing.

Yes, and they need to publish the ingredient and nutritional contents of their meals, warn people not to turn the audio up too high, and put warnings on the blankets that they’re a choking hazard if you cram them in your mouth...

Well, you get the point. There’s a thing called common sense, and posting rules/warnings for every possible situation is simply ridiculous. What are you going to do? Set up a system of crotch measurements to determine if the genitalia exposure limit is exceeded?

"Two months later, she’s still trying to figure out what was wrong with her outfit."

Two months later, a non-event makes the Today Show

A day in the stocks in the public square would change her attitude. It would also probably more than satisfy those who are fantasizing about her underwear or lack thereof.

Asking someone to show a bit of respect for other people in public isn’t the same as enforcing sharia, and asking her to dress a bit more conservatively isn’t the same as telling her to wear a burka. By claiming it’s a sharia thing, you are trying to make this a black and white issue when there are many shades of gray between burkas and nudity.

Well, it’s not an especially flattering outfit, but it doesn’t seem to be especially revealing either — in the position in which she is standing in the photo. I could imagine that it might be a completely different story if she were reaching up to shove something into the overhead, or were bending over, or squirming in her seat to get her belt on and fastened. Even then, I’m not sure what the big fuss is. Whoever would have seen whatever should have had either their moment of pleasure or of offense and then gone on with their lives, because I’m sure that anyone who goes out on a regular basis has seen at least once before just whatever it was this girl exhibited. I saw something similar just the other day in a parking lot. A young woman in a cut-off skirt — longer than this one — was bending over to look at something on her car, and we all found out that she was wearing purple underpants that day.

...The skirt’s up to her crotch...

Actually it looks as if the skirt has been pulled DOWN to where the button is at her....um...crotch.

I see a lot of girls weaing them this low but without a shirt underneath.

As a guy, I enjoy this. :-)

Yeah but as an older guy, will you be ok with younger guys, enjoying watching your daughter in one? :’)

Not skimpy enough!

A man with his priorities in order.

I concur!

Personally, I'm getting sick of the "No Nipples/No Genitals Showing" rule.

The sign on the deli next door says "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service." The one on my door says "No Skirt, No Bra, No Problem."

Of course, I've regretted that a few times.

Well I have two daughters and while that awkward outfit would not be my first choice for them to wear...I would rather they wear it than a Hillary-type pants suit or even these tacky man-looking “server” (waitress) outfits many of the big chain restaurants have gone to.
