I’m a fourteen year old girl, and today, 11/27/15, I was (unfortunately) flying home from Ft. Lauderdale Airport with my family. You know how there’s a normal metal detector and one of those body scanners? Well, the TSA worker directing (and by directing I mean basically shouting nonsensical orders at confused innocent) people through one or the other—and this was a MALE worker, might I add—directed every MAN through the normal metal detector and every WOMAN (or girl in my case, let me remind you I’m fourteen) through that stupid invasive body scanner thing. Do those actually show you naked? Regardless, it was extremely sexist. Oh yeah, then he yelled at me to move faster when I got confused.

TSA Nightmare Stories
From Porno-Feelups to Cancer Machines – The TSA Has it All
They dont actually show a human person. You can see the image yourself. It looks like a gingerbread man and was the same outlined image for every passenger. my husband and I both had the same image. showed a yellow box where my watch was. the old machines years ago were invasive, but those were discountinued and they dont use them anymore. My husband works for the company that delivers the new ones so he knows them pretty well. It just scans the body for anything in your pockets hidden underneath.
Another post regarding a negative action of some TSA workers which is quite bothering I hope someone could do something about this.
