Sheesh. That said, if I worked as a flight attendant personally I'd want to wear nothing other than pants. I'm just practical. But to each their own.

…of pencil skirts and high heels while on your feet many hours a day is welcome to do so.

It would be pants and low-heeled shoes for me.

Both Adam and Eve wore fig leaves over their privates and that is why they were thrown from the garden?

I swear humans in general and Americans in particular are only a few days away from menstrual huts and penis sheaths.

when they want to. One positive about a uniform is that it's easy to identify the flight crew when they're needed, so I'd go for a predominant color or some sort of identifier, but skirts or slacks - meh.

I'm pretty sure the flight attendants on my last plane trip wore something, but I was too tired to notice what it was.
