This is an interesting matter, if only for the Wonkomments it provoked.

Let me review a couple of things.

(1) The young lady could, absolutely, not physically touch the master baiter, or it would be battery.

(2) If this had happened to me as a 17-year-old male, I would have had no fucking idea what to do about it. Suggesting that this 17-year-old female should have, e.g., gotten the whole plane to chant "put your dick in your pants" is fantasy.

(3) She did what any normal person would do -- she complained to the local authorities. Arguably, they should have started a "put your dick in your pants" chant, or done something. You know, something?

The correct outcome for this fiasco is a modest out of court settlement, and United adds a few lines to its instructions to flight attendants dealing with what to do about on board wankers. Also, don't be expecting that random 17-year-olds should be the spearpoints of feminism.

In all fairness, I don't think it was the pro choice msg that got her in trouble

Dude. An out of court settlement in the xx,xxx range is exactly what this piece of stupid behavior deserves.

<i>Its probably not too hard to get the entire plane to chant " put your dick back in your pants". </i>

Have you ever been a 17-year-old girl?

It's a lawsuit,dude. You claim everything.

While I am as sorry as anyone that Gloria has moved on to mostly-celebrity lawyering, she is still almost always on the side of the party with a valid grievance.

Oh, and you better not be wearing a shirt with swears on it. Or that shows too much boob. Those'll get you booted off too.

When she noticed that the jerk (heh, heh) was doing his own thing, she should have whipped out her cell phone and taken a snapshot.

For the record...

yeah, they'll sell you all sorts of things they used to offer for free- it's only a matter of time until they install pay lavatories
