‘L-Word’ Star Kisses Girl, Gets Escorted Off Plane

A lesbian actress who starred in “The L-Word” said she kissed a girl and got escorted off of a Southwest Airlines flight yesterday for doing it. Leisha Hailey took to Twitter to call for a boycott of the carrier after a flight attendant told them other passengers had complained after witnessing the affection. While she says she was being “discriminated against,” Southwest say Hailey was approached “based solely on behavior and not gender.” The airline’s said passengers were characterizing the behavior as excessive. A discussion followed on the flight and the airline said it “escalated to a level that was better resolved on the ground.”
