 Posted: 06/25/03 - 21:55 Post subject: Nekkid at the airport (kinda) or does this bother anyone
EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, N.J. - Susan Hallowell steps into a metal booth that bounces X-rays off her skin, producing a black-and-white image that reveals enough to produce a world-class blush.
To the eye, she is dressed in a skirt and blazer in dark, business-like colors. On the monitor, the director of the Transportation Security Administration's security laboratory is naked, except for a gun and a bomb that she hid under her outfit. Story is here
I wouldn't care in the least if it meant I didn't have to unload my pockets and take off my shoes and belt only for the metal dector to still go off for some unknown reason and getting the pat down after wating in line forever. If you fly much, travel is really a pain. Anything to speed up the process is needed.
Or am I just immodest? Heck, I even got over all the skin showing in clad in my running clothes.

You know, the space program spawned lots of technology we now take for granted in the pedestrian world. Who's to say that homeland security won't bring about advances in our daily lives, say, better cancer detection?
Or X-ray glasses.

who gets to run the scanner when the Hooters' employees come to work?
who decides what SIZE the figleaf will be, surely my figleaf requirements are different than your figleaf requirements. will the operator decide which size figleaf to apply or do i get to request my own figleaf??
i want no pointing and laughing. pointing and laughing is grounds for dismissal.
glad i fly every 10 years -- OMG imagining my next "scan" is horrifying. i'll probably be in line behind the Hooters girls.

I'm sure that if they put somotheone in a booth, that after about 2 hrs. of looking at nekkid peeps, they pretty much all look alike.
Remember, not only does said scanner person get to look at the opposite sex  they have to look at the same sex too  .

Still, just how many people on the average day would you like to see nekkid? Plus, they'd be all squished up behind their unmentionables.

As long as no one else could see you, who cares? What a great idea.
It's not like you don't see wimmins breastfeeding every time you turn your head. I thought that was a private moment between mother and child, but it seems there are more boobs exposed on the street/in restaurants/on airplanes etc. than you see in porn these days.

You can hide enough plastic explosives in a breast pump to blow a hole in the side of an aircraft.

I think a kid should be able to eat when it's hungry wherever and whenever it is... it's a shame that their mothers don't realize that while this is true, there is a technique that is easily adopted whereupon no one ever needs to see one inch of flesh. Breastfeeding isn't the crime, immodesty and disregard for others' sensibilities is.
