Alright, having read several tales of random screenings for cavity searches by the new TSA's, I have to admit I'm a little panic stricken!

Perhaps this is the wet-behind-the-ears naievete of a 22 year old talking, but are the random searches ALL full body cavity searches? I've flown a lot, and I've never even had my bags searched, but now I'm paranoid about these new TSA searches.

Of course, now that I've said I've never had my bags searched I'm due for that That's generally the way that works!!

Any advice to keep me calm and sane would be appreciated!!

I have not heard of a single true 'cavity' search occuring. This is more of an exagerated term used by the people who most object to the random searches.
