i want to see a black actress cast for batgirl.

I’d wear a ball gown if it meant I’d fly for free.

Get out here with your nuance. That’s unacceptable on the World Wide Web.

Actually I disagree. The dress code does not assign a gender to anyone. Anyone could wear shorts, dress pants or jeans.

I love the little scarecrow being constructed. That somehow we’re more peeved by the person who applied the policy than the policy itself. lol

No, it does not say “containing lycra.” It says (and I quote from my own pass rider paperwork) no “form fitting lycra/spandex tops, pants and dresses.” Leggings are lycra pants, ergo, no leggings when you’re pass traveling. They’re not asking you to go all biblical and not mix your fibers in your blouses or your jeans.

As I read the rules in their entirety, they strike me as less about policing what women wear, which I would consider to be sexist, and more about steering all non-revs away from flying is athletic wear (sweats/track pants) for men or athleisure (yoga pants/leggings) for women. The airlines just really don’t want their…

The amount of manufactured outrage and projection in this article is appaling.

If you look at UA’s rules for pass riders (full disclosure: I am a UA pass rider), cargo shorts are permitted (khaki and bermuda shorts are OK for men and women), while lycra/spandex/form fitting leggings are expressly prohibited. So the gate agent didn’t make an arbitrary call to police one and not the other. It’s…

It has been reported that the passenger was flying on a pass, and was therefore required to adhere to a more formal dress code.

If you are flying for free as an employee or relative of an employee, it’s reasonable to expect you to adhere to the dress code. I respectfully suggest that these celebrities find another cause to rally behind.

C’mon. There’s no universe in which leggings, for anybody, are dressy. The over-the-top protestations aside, most dress codes aren’t particularly onerous. There are a lot of ways for women and girls to be comfortable and still meet guidelines.

clearly you haven’t watched any of the Olympics documentaries or understand just how much goddamned freaking hard work it is to compete on that level, get as far as she did, and then have your hopes literally smashed by a freaking evil bitch.

ugh I know it’s like she had the single most common wedding fantasy in western cultures, WHAT A BRAT

Beyonce [was] out there

Deadspin literally has a tag “Athlete Dong”

The Nick and Jess relationship was the high point of the series. When they were stuck in the room together after playing ‘True American’ remains the best episode ever.

Isn’t Jezebel prompting this kind of in-fighting constantly tho??? If there’s anything good, there’s a ‘gotcha’ article about it on Jezebel.

This kind of bullshit in-fighting is precisely why the conservatives — who, despite all their faults, are ace at holding their noses in the interest of presenting a solid front to their opponents and attaining their goals— manage to get so much fuckery done while the liberals argue about everything under the sun.

She’s not harmless. She and her family were promoting dangerous products on social media to young girls (waist trimmer contraptions, diet pills, diet teas, etc.), as if they use them in their normal lives. But they were paid advertisements and they didn’t disclose that on their social media posts. They’ve been caught…
