Female Bodybuilder Kicked Off Flight For Skimpy Outfit, We Would’ve Given Her Our Window Seat (All Cockpit Jokes Aside)

They say Texas is the land of freedom, except when it comes to skimpy outfits on planes. Such is the curious case of Turkish bodybuilder Deniz Saypinar who was banned from an American Airlines flight after crew members accused her of being too naked to fly.

Ironically, Saypinar who is the first non-American to win the US National Bikini Fitness Competition left her home country to escape oppression, only to find it at the Dallas/Fort Worth airport. According to the fitness influencer (who boasts over 1 million followers), a few families had complained of her “too short” shorts despite jorts and underbutt being totally in right now.

Forced to stay in the airport overnight, Saypinar took to social media to vent about her experience. “They literally didn’t take me to the plane because they say ‘you’re naked and you offend other families,’” she said, explaining, “I am an athlete, and now I have to wait here until the morning. I like to wear feminine clothes that reveal my femininity, but I never dress in a way that will offend anyone. I’m mature and civilized enough to know what I can and cannot wear.”

Take a look at the “offensive” outfit above and note the “caution” sign, as this image may cause sudden loss of body function.

Taking a quick glance at Saypinar’s Instagram profile, it’s instantly clear that her airplane outfit is actually less revealing than what she wears on a normal day. (And what most Miamians wear during the hot summer months.) See for yourself:

If you haven’t lost consciousness yet, congratulations, you could be an astronaut.

Speaking of aerodynamics, Saypinar was finally put on another flight the following day and made it safely to her destination in Miami Florida, where according to one eyewitness, beachgoers complained her shorts were not short enough. Oh, America.
