In general, statistically speaking, when the question is "use of physical force", women are the more vulnerable gender. And all decent men have a strong protective instinct deep inside that says to them "protect the women."
yeah, but at a tsa screening we're not talking about a physical fight- you'd have to think women are mentally weaker to think they'd "
need" a man to them there.

but yeah, i agree with the idea that women are generally physically weaker and in a situation where they need physical protection, it'd be nice if someone stepped up.
which brings me to this...
i don't like the screenings. but not because i think it's groping, assault, molestation, pedophilia or whatnot, as a few folks here apparently do. i don't like it because it's a charade. HOWEVER, given that some of the people here apparently DO think it's molesting or assault, why the f' AREN'T they doing something. if i DID think a child was being molested, that'd be the time to physically step in. but the tough talking folks here apparently think making their flight is more important than stopping a physical assault.
