Once again, you and I see things differently.

(At least, we would be seeing different things.)

Going through to the US side at YOW I was told to remove my sweater. I had already taken off my winter coat. It was a zip up sweater and I did have a t-shirt on underneath. What annoyed me was the man before me and the man after me were not requested to remove their sweaters, it was only me.

Yeah, as soon as I saw that Dovster was the last poster, I knew this thread would be heading in a different direction. :D

I think I've figured out my new travel attire.
 
A trenchcoat.

Just a trenchcoat.

I'm sure the TSA will like it.

We should all try during the winter months to do that, could be quite um interesting.

And I came through MIA TSA by Gate G TWICE last night (flt was delayed so I came bacek out to the shops) and they never even asked me to take my sweater/jacket off. I just love consistency.....

Perhaps their sweaters were not so umm... err... oh dear, "bulky" :o .

Seriously; that's what TSA (and presumably CATSA) use as a yardstick - if they think (as if :rolleyes: ) you could be concealing some contraband underneath, then off it comes.

Or as we have surmised before, it could simply have been on a screener's whim, "designed inconsistency" n'all :td: .

You wonder if those who allegedly are looking to do harm will just get around to recruiting 500-pounders and have them smuggle explosives/liquids in their folds of fat. I'd love (as in staring at car wrecks) to see TSA hand searching them. :p

Fortunately, this won't happen in places like Canada where gender equal protection under the law has been verified by the top court.

Being a bit of a rebel, I'm quite tempted to do what you suggest. In fact, I would take it one step further than simply wearing nothing under my jacket. I'm sure the look on the TSO's faces would be priceless when they'd see "KIP HAWLEY IS AN IDIOT" written across my bare chest.
