Hey! You’ve got it backwards! Those girls are “Karen-shaming sluts.”
One of the girls being picked on claimed she made $40,000 a month on the internet from people looking at her chest. And she’s flying Frontier!!??
Technically bad video. Girls are rarely shown and it’s filmed using that upright rectangle box format which drives me batty. Why not use your whole camera screen!!??
Oh, and get off my lawn!!!
I wonder how much she was charging to join the mile high club.
The basic issue is that it is none of that woman’s business what someone else is wearing. Some people just look for trouble. She doesn’t own an airline, so she doesn’t set the rules as to what is acceptable or not on the airplane. If the argument were between the women and a Frontier employee, it would be a different situation.
“Slut-shaming Karen” = A roundup of the most important stories of the day.
Oh, how the mighty hath fallen…
What will happen to all the A380s being retired around the world. Maybe Baltia Air could buy one or two really cheap.
Who cares about any of this ??? Airline Transport Pilot # 2035741
What are the odds this is a self-promo made to look like a random encounter? If one of the girls really does have FansOnly-type account, it’s a self-promo.
Color me skeptical.
The woman needs to mind her own damm business. That’s the problem in America right now. Too much governmental and private party interference in our lifestyle choices. That used to be an issue with the right now the left wingers have claimed that honor.
Future Karen vs Current Karen
Anyone named Karen should be truly embarrassed about how people carrying that name have comported themselves.
I love the mocking of Spirit Airlines.
