I don't think they can tell -- not without imaging and without physically palpating the skin on your chest....so why are they bothering with this bit where they touch your chest over your bra and blouse?
It really bothers me that females have to be subjected to having their breasts "being felt for anomalies). Perhaps we just haven't heard about it, at least males don't have their private parts "being squeezed for anomalies."
