Me, too. Part of the defiance is to make them change gloves, even if you know they have changed them (assert that you didn't see them do it). Then, make them test the gloves in the trace detector before touching you. It's about 50/50 among clerks whether or not they will push back. Look them right in the eye with a scowl worthy of Ray Lewis. I'm saving the line: "Do you enjoy doing this to young boys?" for the right clerk.

Do not, under any circumstances, go to a private screening. Be prepared to walk if necessary.

It's important we do not distinguish between the MMW and the cancer boxes, because that's exactly what the TSA wants us to do. How many times have we had clerks tell us, with respect to the MMWs: "Don't worry. This one doesn't cause cancer."? It's clear that the TSA is driving the public towards acceptance of the Gumby MMW NOSs. We have to resist that at every opportunity.

PreCheck doesn't do it, either. All that does is take more and more of us out of the debate by placating the frequent flyer.
