No problem, bring it on. I'm not worried... and I welcome the extra security. No more hiding under "politically correct" "my religion requires me to wear this" clothing and cover ups.

I saw this. They claim that the only one who will see the scan is a security officer stationed at least 50 feet away so that he can't see the person being scanned. I'm not that trusting. Sorry. |

I am all for increased airport security, but I think this is going too far. |

John, you're certainly right about the "politically correct" part. |

Ummmm I don't mind the naked part, but if I'm to be "penetrated," I'd like more than a digit. |

It's just getting more and more painful to travel now. First you can't carry skincare/makeup, now this. What else can they do? Asking everybody to travel naked? That will be "safe" |

Naked?! No way am I going to let them see my naked body through the scanner! |

Oh good grief, folks! Get over yourselves. That picture is about as sexy as an x-ray.
Believe me, the officer scanning those is not there for purient interest. That will be a very boring job, which will still require hypervigilance. Very difficult.
Yeah, like your asembled body parts are soooo special. |

oh HELL NO.
That being said, hey, if the security guards want their retinas burned out by viewing my flabby ass, then I hope they've got the Visine ready ... |

If they wanna scan - go ahead - best idea yet!
then maybe they could drop the sealable plastic bag thingy for "liquid" - seeing as they don't check the contents... |
