It's not likely they even know the difference.
'decorum'
'social civility'
'exhibitionist'
'integrity'

Well, you've made a great point about people having not the foggiest idea what those things mean.

But it wasn't the point you intended to make.

I don't think it was about anything other then the fact that some one (or more then one) person was going to have to sit next to her in her granny panties and the flight crew was thinking of the comfort level of that person. I don't care what she is wearing to look at, but I don't think it was about that. I think it was about the comfort of the people sitting next to her.

That said, they could have just given her a blanket (if they still have those). So it does seem like they were trying to punish her somewhat.

Seriously -- if these were 'normal' short-shorts they wouldn't have kicked her off the plane, and if they still had the uproar would have been much louder. This is 100% because an older flight attendant disliked her (bad) fashion, went on a power-trip, and the pilot gave in to kicking her off the plane or making her change it so as not to have a disagreement with the crew.

This is amusing - I did not think that the flight crew gave a care about comfort levels of passengers on flights. People have to sit next to screaming kids, overweight people, etc. and they aren't normally kicked off.

I think it has more to do with hygiene. The airline isn't deep cleaning the seats after each flight. They don't want someone bare butt on the seat, especially somewhere people are eating.

Actually they often do make over weight flyers pay for 2 seats and they have been known to kick all sorts of people off, including crying kids. However, what you choose to wear is a lot easier to control then weight or a fussy kid.

LOL you would think the woman in question wouldn't want *her* bare butt where a bunch of other people have sat.

I didn't see a bare butt. I saw a pair of ugly shorts that reminded me of the shorts they used to make us wear in PE class back in the seventies.

I've seen 10 year olds wear more revealing clothes.
