I don't have any intention of going through that screening machine. It's getting to the point where a person has little dignity in the screening process. I was in Phoenix when they had the puffer machine to detect explosives. I was "selected" to go through that machine and had a skirt on that day. I had to hold my arms down at my side to prevent my skirt from coming up around me and I needed about 3 more arms to hold it down from the air blast I got. Shortly after they instituted the "remove your jacket" rule I was asked to remove a zip up sweater/knit jacket. I told them I had nothing on beneath it and they got huffy with me and sent me through the extended screening process.

I carry a tiny black purse, so I usually put my shoes, jacket and purse in the same plastic tub and my laptop in another tub. On a trip from TUL to DFW it was freezing so I had a big wool coat with me. That day I used three tubs, putting the large coat in a separate tub and my same purse/shoes/jacket in the other tub. When my tubs started coming out my purse was missing and they had not annouced they were sending it back through for additional screening. I started hollering, yes yelling where is my purse. Some TSA person had rearranged my stuff, removed my purse from the tub number 1 and put it UNDER my big black coat in tub number 3. My coat was the last tub to come out as I put my least important/valuable item at the end of my tubs. It took me a minute to find my purse as it didn't occur to me to look under my coat. A TSA supervisor rushed over and asked me to check and see if anything was missing. There wasn't anything missing, but it seems to me that they take unneccessary liberties with our belongings and bodies.
