I am used to removing belts (and even shoes). I always have to do that in US airports when I don't have TSAPre. After a few flights in the US, you will get used to that and will not be upset anymore.
I am totally used to taking off my belt, it is just that no matter how close to buck naked I am, no matter whether I get a beep or not, they wand me.

Of the 20 times I did not get a beep, only this one time did they NOT wand me.

Also had to take out coins (US, Euros, Yen) from my briefcase for the first time in 8 years yesterday.
