“A JetBlue passenger is accusing the airline of "body-shaming and slut-shaming" after she says she was told her shorts were too skimpy for the skies.
The passenger, a burlesque dancer who goes by the stage name Maggie McMuffin, says she was about to board a Seattle-bound JetBlue flight in Boston on May 18 when a crew member told her she would have to change her clothes because her black and white shorts "may offend other families."
McMuffin says she tried to reason with the crew member, suggesting some possible ways to cover up. "[I said], 'I could tie a sweater around my waist,'" she told ABC's Seattle affiliate, KOMO-TV. "'I could get a blanket from you guys.' And they said, 'If you don't change your clothes, you're not going to be able to board this flight.'"*
