I could see it making a difference if they travel a lot & are groped repeatedly. Depending on the person, that could either desensitize them or build up a lot of deep-seated resentment.

Too many people don't even a clue as to what the Nude-O-Scopes themselves do. If you've no concept of what it does, how can it desensitize you?

On another level, I assume (I'm 30-40 years too late to enjoy the "benefits" of sexting, etc.), I would assume that part of the stimulus for participating is the reaction/response you get from the recipient, and maybe some pictures in return. All we get out of TSA is more abuse. That's hardly an incentive to be desensitized & participate in other activities.

The only real risk I see here is unintentionally teaching kids that it's OK for others to paw you.
