Today at ORD

First there was a long line. Way longer than usual for a Sunday night. While waiting I started a conversation with the lady behind me. I pointed out that 70% of the people going through the Nude o Scope were women. We watched for a while and it turned out it was true.

It was very subtle because the doc checker told women that both lines were open. It was not said to males.

She got behind me in the WTMD line and put her things behind mine. I looked behind me and she was gone. The TSA came by and took her to the NOS line.

On the other side she was horrified about it. She felt somewhat intimidated by their actions even though the TSA was not bothering with the grope as the lines were so long. When I left her she was calling her girlfriend who would be through the same line in few minutes.

A while later in the book store another lady asked me if I had gone through the X Ray machine. I told her no that I had opted out. She did not know she could. She also noticed that it was mostly women going through the NOS.

At least I educated two people today.
