Thank god as I'd hate to see a 40 year old man in leggings. The dress code for employees is there for a reason as the free flyer may be called to service on the flight if needed. Once again, there goes that dimwit Shannon Watts sticking her nose into business for which she has no clue.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02470913616595172222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37353682.post-91192205590577880402017-03-27T12:57:02.893-07:002017-03-27T12:57:02.893-07:00Noted.

For pete's sake, they're wearing clothing from ankle to bellybutton, wtf is wrong with this USA? It's still operating by the Puritans standards of acceptable public standards. Why couldn't we have been founded by the French who are in favor of topless beaches? Or the Spanish who like an afternoon siesta? Or Aussies who won't put up with anyone's shit?

Sure, some things have also went to hell. But, to the point, why must women be sexualized in a dress code. For pete's sake, it's even called the DRESS code. <br />What reason is there to be sexist today? Why must girls be told what they can't wear because men and boys can't control their raging beast mode at the sight of a spaghetti strap top, lycra, etc? Why must someone's notions of etiquette and proper level of clothing attire be the standard to which we must waste money buying clothes that do nothing to change the basic requirement that our sex organs be out of sight of the public? <br />Ditto ties, WTF must men wear ties for? I simply will not, for any reason. <br />A tie has no place around a neck, it's stupid, and unsafe. <br />A dress code is censorship, and we are adults, not children in a inner city school where kids have to wear a uniform khaki pants and white shirt so no kids are teased, no kids wear gang colors, and no kids get killed for wearing an NFL team logo.

The dress code included a jacket and tie for males and a dress or skirt for the females. They did not budge on that requirement.<br /><br />Frankly, too many people dress like slobs on airplanes now...like they are auditioning for the "People of Walmart" websites. While I don't wish to wear a tie when I fly, I do dress like an adult-- no short shorts, no sweat pants, no pajamas.MikePhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09229840372065589595noreply@blogger.com
