Yes, usually we do feel kind of stupid doing it, but it’s what we get paid for.
There are people here at TS/S who think that “bum” bombs are a threat. There is no limit to what people can rationalize.
Kindly read what the OP wrote. Your comments are inappropriate to the thread.
Because they are usually attached to legs?
Ever hear of someone using tape to hide something on the bottom of their feet? I’ve seen it.
Be careful. The areas still need to be cleared, but we are going to do our best to not cause pain during the clearing.
I once screened a disabled person who had a medical condition that made his entire body painful to the touch. It was the longest screening I have ever done, and just watching the guys face as I did the FBPD was nearly as painful for me as it was for him.
The moral of the story is, let us know if you have a condition like that (painful areas) and we will do what we can to help.
No.
OK, step back. You are changing gears here without letting us know. Sensitive “painful” areas are different than Sensitive “private” areas. Look over the OP’s post, you will understand what I mean.

And you go to jail. Geez people, try and be rational. I don’t know you, I don’t know if you are a terrorist or not (most likely you are not, but there is always that chance), and I have a job that requires me to make sure that no prohibited items are brought through the checkpoint by passengers. I am not assaulting you, so stop claiming I am. Call the cops and I will not be the one going out in handcuffs.
And you will pay the price for an inappropriate decision.
