If I am wearing jeans with a button fly and the metal buttons set off the alarm, do I have the right to demand that a female screener pat down the area?

Which, of course, leads to another question. If the female screener is attractive, while patting down the area she might discover a hard object under the buttons. What is the procedure after that?
