My Calendar Girls: Stewardesses Stripped

by Mary Jo Manzanares on April 19th, 2006

“I love, I love, I love my calendar girls. . . .”

 

2007 calendar.jpgThe 2007 edition of “Stewardesses Stripped” will be released this week.  The calendar, subtitled “stripped of their pensions,” is a fundraiser and political activism campaign to raise awareness of the crisis in the pension guarantee system.  There’s lots of humor involved as the Flight Attendants bare almost all in an effort to call attention to the concessions being demanded of them.  The calendar contains no nudity.

The 2007 edition of “Stewardesses Stripped” will be released this week.  The calendar, subtitled “stripped of their pensions,” is a fundraiser and political activism campaign to raise awareness of the crisis in the pension guarantee system.  There’s lots of humor involved as the Flight Attendants bare all in an effort to call attention to the concessions being demanded of them.  The calendar contains no nudity.The idea for the calendar came from the 2003 movie “Calendar Girls” in which middle-aged British women posed nude to raise money for a hospital.  The Stews Stripped 2006 calendar featured Flight Attendants from United Airlines, and sold over 10,000 copies.

After the success of last year’s calendar, hundreds of flight attendants volunteered to participate in this year’s edition.  The 2007 pinup girls range in age from 30-68 and represent five airlines.

Purchase the calendar online at Stews Stripped for $14.95.  Some 2006 calendars remain at the reduced prie of $9.95.
