It’s the holiday season again and a lot of people will be
traveling for the Christmas break to spend time with family and friend and some
will just want to have a silent getaway if ever it is silent with all the fun
going on everywhere. Now hold on, just before you pack that bag and head for
the Bus Park or airport, or whichever way you chose to travel, here are
thirteen things you should never wear while traveling….
1. Sweatpants or jogging pants.
Can we all just
come to one general conclusion on this one? Friends don't let friends travel in
sweatpants. Time after time, I see people in gray heather sweatpants with their
last name or some funny picture or phrase on the bum, and it makes me just want
to give them an anonymous note saying, "I'm glad you're comfortable, but
you look really funny."
2. A strong
fragrance.
Now
I lovea good scent but traveling
is NOT the time to be experimenting with cologne or perfume. Be respectful of
the other passengers on board—they might have scent allergies or maybe are not
a fan of your new favorite scent/perfume. This rule also applies to bringing
food on the plane or bus. Perhaps you think twice before buying super smelly
food from the food court/vendor for on board consumption. That would be really
nice.
3.
Provocative clothing.
Dear
Lord did I experience this while traveling. Women wearing low cut shirts
or shorts that barely covered their posteriors or even guys with the extra
sagging pants (no one wants to see your boxers). If a parent wants to cover
their children's eyes or people are uncomfortable around you because of the
outfit you're wearing, take note. And if you're unsure of what to wear, just
remember simple does it.
4.
Complicated shoes.
Always
remember this especially if you would be flying. The more complicated a shoe is
to take off, the longer the passengers behind you have to wait in security.
Also, airports are large places that sometimes require a lot of walking and/or
running to gates. Skip the stilettos and reach for a comfortable pair of
loafers or fashion-forward sneakers. There are so many elegant options out
there right now.
5. Loud and
expensive jewelry.
It
will set off the metal detectors. It will draw attention to you. If you MUST,
just be careful or think about the tress of having to take them off and put
them back on at metal detectors.
6. Pajamas.
The
only place pajamas are appropriate for is going to bed. In the comfort of your
home. That is the ONLY place.
7. Over sized
coat.
This
is going to take up a lot of room either in your seat or in the overhead storage
compartment. Pick a more considerate option.
8. Shorts.
Airports,
airplanes and buses are dirty. They are also usually really cold (especially as
its cold season). Why subject your legs to that? Put on your pants/trousers!
9. Flip flops/slippers.
They're
not sturdy traveling shoes, and like I said above airports are GROSS. If you
must wear sandals choose a secure pair.
10. Fanny
packs.
I
know they come in and out of fashion. But at the end of the day you look like
an unfashionable tourist when you wear one.
11. Sport
jerseys.
If
you need to rep your favorite sports team, wear a hat. When traveling, sports
jerseys look cheesy and unpolished.
12. Bare
feet.
On
the plane, bare feet are GROSS. Put on some socks (and please make sure your
shoes are not smelly).

In just one week, we have witnessed two or three trending stories of fake rape allegations that have shaken the public trust. One young woman accused an anonymous man of raping her (for which she survived drinking Sniper) and created a fake support account, successfully mobilizing influencers, celebrities, and activists to rally behind her. In the second story a young man was specifically named and immediately arrested. Only God knows the psychological and physical trauma and abuse he endured before the young woman who accused him finally confessed that the entire story was a lie. While these incidents may point to underlying mental health issues and perhaps, carefully thought out wicked plans to harm others, it does not change a fundamental truth: rape should never be a joke. Many men have been canceled for making rape jokes and many more are in prison from false accusations . The lies of these women trended so wildly that it triggered action from the police, healthcare providers, an...
