In the 1970s that would have been a flight attendant's uniform on some airlines ...
Didn't they throw Ron Levy off a plane once for wearing shorts?
There just HAS to be more to this story.
Sorry, in 2016, I just don't believe someone would be kicked off an airplane only for wearing short shorts. Even if Prudey McPrude were flying.
It's only relevant because she was wearing her work clothes. I've never seen a stripper outfit that was appropriate "going out in public" attire. At least not a good one. Self-serving victim-provided photographs notwithstanding.I don't understand how her occupation has anything to do with the fact that the airline denied her boarding. Well, except for the reason of purposeful shaming.

She is seeking publicity, to promote her career as a stripper.
When the publicity mentions her name, career, and comments upon her appearance, and the news makes headlines, as this did, well, that is hitting the publicity jackpot.
It's a clever stunt to use the airline as a foil. The news media love to report on problems faced by airline passengers, much more than most any other customer experience one might have. So, she was well served by provoking an airline to cause her a "problem" based on her appearance. She did very well here.

And yet this would be allowed to board every day (and I've seen worse):
But the self-righteous here think Ms. McMuffin is worse? Really? Gimme a break.
I'm really curious as to what constitutes self-righteousness, in your opinion, since you seem to be so fond of using the term.And yet this would be allowed to board every day (and I've seen worse):

Don't forget to tip your waitress!maybe jet blue is like the old McDonalds.........after 10:30am they no longer serve McMuffins. HIYOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo
OBTW...I missed one definition.I'm really curious as to what constitutes self-righteousness, in your opinion, since you seem to be so fond of using the term.
