True. I don't really care what they see with those machines (I do think they are taking away my right to privacy, but someone may as well enjoy seeing me naked). But I don't trust the safety of them. Sure, yeah, the FDA has said they are safe. But how many drugs has the FDA pulled this year alone that they THOUGHT were safe and have changed their minds on? Plus I've read too many scary stories about radiation machines for cancer accidentally putting out way more than necessary - and those are run by medical personnel. I had to take several hours of radiation-safety training just to test properties for lead-based paint, and I doubt anyone from TSA has had equivalent training.

Anyway, I will continue flying because I have to, but my teenage rebellious streak has come out of hibernation from all of this I may try to fly in a bikini just to see what happens.
