'It is not comfortable to come to work knowing full well that my hands will be feeling another man’s private parts, their butt, their inner thigh,' one told the BoardingArea blog.

'Even worse is having to try and feel inside the flab rolls of obese passengers and we seem to get a lot of obese passengers!'

Another said he had a huge problem dealing with a 'large number of passengers... daily that have a problem understanding what personal hygiene is.'

All the staff said that they had experienced a high level of personal abuse while carrying out the pat-downs.

So in the future they will only pull fit, skinny people who smell good out of line for a strip search. I feel safer already!

Oh come on, I thought this was all about sacrifice in the name of national security. Butch up and grab that junk!

FTSA! This were only following orders B.S. is the same excuse I heard from other nations. You have to be a deviant to continue doing that job as the TSA given what they have to do.

The camp guards are just following orders and soon they will have a big union to protect them and insure that they only do 10 pat downs a day and get extra pay for that..plus time off for PTSD.

The left, center, right, and now the TSA, all do not want the TSA feeling up passengers or seeing them naked. So who wants this and why? Could a public policy change with absolutely no public support stand in a free country?

He should count his blessing he doesn't have to sit next to one of these passengers on a three hour flight. Now THAT's a huge problem.

Exactly. The passengers are just “asking for it”.
