Passenger Profiling

Greetings,
I've just about had it with the 'random' searches at the airports. While I don't mind doing my part to help thwart terrorism, I DO mind getting stopped every leg of a domestic trip and getting pulled out of line to get searched. I wouldn't even mind if this was the first and only time this happened but this is the THIRD time in THREE trips that I've been nailed coming and going.(more than once per one-way of trip)

Can someone give me some clues as to why? I purchase my tickets well in in advance. I follow the 'rules' of carry on luggage- one small shoulder bag and a small purse. I am well-groomed, 45 yrs old, frequent flier female. I travel either with my husband or a male coworker. We don't travel with children and we are not handicapped.

Might I also add that I've never seen adults with children or business class travelers get searched?? I'm beginning to get a bit paranoid and am finding it increasingly humiliating to be searched so many times per trip.

Thanks!
Just call me - P#ssd in PA.
