article describing a woman's experience with the private screening is terrifying to me.
As a woman who travels alone frequently, and who doesn't want the extra radiation of the NOS machines, I am really worried about what my rights are and what I can reasonably expect to do and have happen to me if I don't want to go to the private room. Does anyone know?
Well if it gets to the point of me requested to go to a private room, I'll let you know what happens after I refuse.
Beleive I've seen a secondary pat down in public on a fairly large lady who refused, watching each breast being lifted up and felt around is ridiculous.
But I'd still refuse to let others know whats taking place, and hopefully someone with a camera.
Nowadays I travel knowing I might not wind up on the plane; and not due to weather or malfunctions.
