Thanks for that 'Givemewings'. Does that really apply in this case though?

In some cultures e.g. south pacific there is a culture of appreciating people of very overweight stature. I can't remember the last flight I saw someone take a photo of any male/female crew member who wasn't what the papers believe is the classic good looks. I'm trying to be very careful and PC here.

Sadly, I suspect most of the photos are taken of pretty female crew members by tanked up male passengers on their way to a stag weekend or holiday. In these circumstances such female crew members have every right to deny photos should they wish.
