I HEART CHAOS

When the unnamed old guy above took a flight from Ft. Lauderdale to Phoenix, he decided to dress smart and comfortably in a set of women’t blue lingerie and a small sheer sweater. And despite many a protest from his fellow US Airways passengers, he was allowed to board. 

And hell, why not? Everyone should dress this way when going to the airport. It’s clear he doesn’t have many places to hide weapons or contraband. His shoes come off easily for security, he probably enjoys the pat down and it’s probably pretty comfy on a long flight. 

Veteran flight attendant Mark Gentile, currently a US Airways union rep for the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA MEC, said that this case of the lingerie wearing man is “certainly one of the most bizarre.”

“I could see how someone could take offense to it because you’re sitting inches away from someone on an aircraft and people respect their privacy and don’t what to have that invaded,” he said.

Gentile, who has been a flight attendant for 34 years, said that passengers behaving in bizarre ways is not uncommon.

But this incident also comes shortly after 20 year old  University of New Mexico football player Deshon Marman made headlines when he was booted off a US Airways flight after airline personnel approached him about his pants sagging too low. Marman was arrested on June 15 after told to leave get off the plane. He claims that his pajama bottoms were loose, but that just the top of his underwear were in public view.

But obviously, a black guy with baggy pants is a threat to America. So he didn’t think of that.
