Back on the topic of the thread, I'm very heartened to hear that there was a large response to Joe Sharkey's article. I knew I couldn't be the only woman in the world offended by strangers pawing at my breasts. What part of "no" don't you understand, TSA?

No, you may not touch my breasts. No, you may not put your wand between my legs within an inch of my genitals. No, you may not remove my clothing. No, no, no, no, no. Women have worked hard to remove coercion and threats from their relationships. Now we have no choice but to take up the fight again to remove coercion, threats, and unwelcome sexual contact from our travels. We do not deserve to be treated this way, and we do not deserve banishment from our means of travel and from our livelihoods because we have stood up for the dignity and sanctity of our bodies.
