Guess #1: Underwire bras?
Having said that,
GradGirl, I see both sides of the argument with you (and I've seen you've taken some heat here). I don't know the history of the issue you had, but obviously it was serious to you. Whether its serious to anyone else or not is irrelvant.
I respect you in this sense though. You complain here about TSA, but you've change your life so you don't have to deal with it. So many others here complain, complain, complain and then head off to the airport to "bend over and take it again".
My entire issue with many of the posters here is that my contention is that
searches of your bags and body at airports is VOLUNTARY!!!!. If you don't like it, you are always free to
NOT FLY!!!!. Unlike most here, you have actually recognized and enacted that in your life. Perhaps some of the other chronic complainers and anti-TSA types should follow your lead.
