There have been two different women in the last two weeks that have come forward claiming that Southwest Airlines has asked them to cover up due to their skimpy outfits. Really? What is the big deal? Who doesn’t like a to see a little cleavage? Can anyone honestly and with a straight face say that they have been offended by cleavage? It’s not like the girl was wearing a string bikini or had her areola’s hanging out. If Southwest wants to implement a dress code addressing certain types or styles of dress then sleeveless shirts should be the #1 priority. I don’t even think cleavage cracks the top ten. I am way more offended after I have dropped $400 on a seat and under up six inches from some chucklehead’s armpit hair that is blowing in the breeze of the overhead air vent.
Southwest Airlines is an independent company and if they want to implement a dress code then I have no problem with that. However I think that speaks volumes about the sad state of American society if that is really necessary. People should use their common sense and follow this basic rule.
If you wouldn’t wear it into your office to talk to your boss then you shouldn’t wear it on the airplane. Done.
