Nah, it'll be like in the doctor's office. You'll go into a cubicle, strip and put on paper scrubs, get scanned/swabbed/groped/rubbed while your clothing is irradiated, xrayed, swabbed and scoped, then you'll be allowed to proceed.

You will have to be naked when you enter the terminal with all luggage shipped separately. Of course you won't be allowed to enter the terminal unless you produce X-Rays from a few hours before just in case you are a bum bomber (a bumber?)

As older generations die out and newer (if you aren't doing anything wrong then you have nothing to hide) generations take over, then this will be the ultimate result of the current direction.
I'm not much for believing in slippery slopes, but the general public doesn't seem too keen on pushing back as more layers of stupidity are added on (or removed, as it were). All in the name of security, as they say.
If we went back in a time machine to 20 years ago and showed the traveling public how security at airports was going to be in 2014, they would think you were an insane liar, as nobody could possibly tolerate being treated that way.
And if someone came back in a time machine from 2024 and showed us how it looks then, we would more than likely also react with horror and disbelief.
We are the frogs being slowly brought to a boil in a pot of water.
