Just saw this on twitter. AA are promoting pride with their 1st all LGBT crew. You'll never guess which letter is missing ShockHmm

Jesus. That’s so spectacularly bad. Did they really not notice?

Don’t mean to derail but wtf is it with airlines doing shitty things all the time? Air NewZealand won’t allow Māori with Ta Moko that could possibly be seen as front line staff. Even if it’s under your shirt! It might ‘frighten passengers’. Racist bullshit. While they use our art on their plane Shock

Has this airline replied to any of the comments pointing out there is no women?? You’d think they’d address it.

You could not make this shit up.

Let's all fly delta.

They had pictures of their mother-daughter flight team.

Or Air India who managed round the world with a female crew.

Air America for a sausage fest.

Lol, 6/6 blokes, and 5/6 (looks to be) white blokes to boot, = inclusive. So progressive, much diverse.

MagneticSingularity · 09/07/2019 01:39

When massive male-dominated corporations try to do diverse and inclusive and fail spectacularly.

I believe that drag queens are now considered to be part of the transgender group by many of the big LGBT organisations so by that definition the T are included.

Tanni Grey-Thompson on that thread.

Drag Queens come under the Stonewall definition of Trans.

LassOfFyvie · 09/07/2019 00:06

Have you looked at the video? They look straight out of Ru Paul's drag race.

sakura184 · 08/07/2019 23:43

How can you tell the difference between a trans woman and a drag queen by their picture ?

LassOfFyvie · 08/07/2019 23:37

Well that's going down well.

Some posters are pointing out they have omitted T as well as L as the 2 people in dresses are obviously drag queens, not T. It's a fair point.
