Patdown was cursory, no waistband or collar check, no groin rub. Was asked if I wanted a private screening but didn't get the rest of the speech.
2 lanes were funnelling into 1 MMW, and I was done with my patdown before the lady behind me got thru the scanner.
Odd, since we have TSOs and others who keep posting about the mythical 'medical bypass' for those physically unable to assume and hold the position in the NoS. I've yet to experience it myself. ^ that you got spared the hands in pants/hands between legs grope. Sounds like you also didn't have a problem keeping your eyes on your belongings.
