There would be no way to avoid a panty line..

Ever heard of a "thong?" And since when are panty lines grounds for throwing someone off a plane? No, another poster had it right: there's much more to this than what we're being told.

Nice outfit.

Did they make her give up her Lucky Strikes and her bottle of Boone's Farm too?

I'll bet the folks back at the trailer park are jest furious.

[MozarkDawg]

I've flown Southwest -- sorry, but they are the last folks to be lecturing on *appropriate clothing for plane flight.*

She could be a good Frontier wife. Strong pioneer woman, can whup a bear with a stick.

Darn it...look at post #37, I just got done being nice.

[Doc Savage]

Can you say bubbleheaded slut? Bubbleheaded skank? How come her indignant mother didn’t tell it was “inappropriate” to work as a Hooter’s skank???

[mosaicwolf]

Damn! I wish all the women wore mini skirts (under a certain weight limit of course) on my flights! What is wrong with some “eye candy”?

[Xenalyte]

Glad you got it out of your system! ;)

It is amzing what people will accept for normal attire.

When I am on the bus it is very embrassing to set across from a women who skirt is so short you can see her underware!

What gives with these frightful future of America!

The outfit is tacky, and she looks a bit trampy, but I wouldn’t throw her off a plane. I wonder if there is more to this story than we are being told. As an aside, why is this even news? Why doesn’t she just sue Southwest and get it over with. It’s pretty obvious that this is where this is headed anyway.

If I recall correctly, the Britney zone had no fuzz.

Not according to a Southwest employee identified only as “Keith,” who approached Ebbert after she had taken her seat on the plane and was listening to the flight attendants go through their pre-departure routine.

Would anyone like to theorize that "Keith" might have, at some point, defected to the other team?

Here's the woman and outfit in question:

A more appropriate cure for a fear of flying then benzodiazepines could ever hope to be IMO. ; )

[Dante3]

I agree. Good for Southwest. There still is a proper way to dress when out in public. IMHO this tacky woman was out for media attention or trying to attract a John.

[dforest]

Yeah, my head quit rotating and the bile is out.

ahh, I feel better now!

[Cyber Liberty]

I see the problem.

Her clothing failed to cover her face.

[Lazamataz]

Not skimpy enough!

[Doctor Raoul]

No taking the puppies for a walk on Southwest?

[restornu]

Since you feel that way why even bother with cloths fawn let all God’s gift hang out!
