Hi Amber.
I just don't see how an obnoxious 40-year-old man with a goatee and hairy legs, wearing a Halloween wig, green teeny blouse and pink skirt with stilettos somehow "represents us" as is mentioned in the discussion. In my opinion he's openly mocking the female gender. Whatever happened with conducting oneself with some dignity and class?
Although it's often with a pure heart, sometimes I feel "we" are often overly-inclusive in who we are willing to stand and be counted with. It seems wise to draw a line somewhere if "we" really want to ever be taken seriously in open society.
So, no I don't feel this person represents me or the many fine, intelligent folks who use these boards.
Back to the original point: No, I don't think he should have been kicked off the bus for how he visually presented himself. As an adult, how he presents himself is on him. But, I think he should have been kicked off for being rude and unruly. Which seems to be exactly what happened.
Sorry your evening wasn't better, but tomorrow is a brand new day!
