However, as a male I am now 11-for-11 at the IAH Terminal C checkpoint, despite always using the belt aimed at the WTMD, and it ain't because the ladies want to check me out; probably not the guys either. Not as popular at MSY, only 10-for-12 there - although one of the opt-out gropers at MSY did greet me like an old friend last week. I probably wasn't as cheerful.
That's odd that you, as a guy, have been picked 11/11 at IAH. I've been through IAH terminal C and when I was there, I saw females of all ages being picked for the scanner and one teenaged boy who wore baggy clothing. They were also giving pat-downs to several old ladies after going they went through the scanner. I think eturowski is picked a lot because she is a young female who is pretty.
Maybe you (bordeauxboy) have been somehow tagged as a favorite by one of the tso's at IAH? Creepy!!! 10/12 at MSY is still pretty high too. Maybe you should try to alter your look, perhaps you could try a new haircut and hair color along with a different clothing style?
