I know I am in the minority here. I have been patted down twice, once leaving NAS (single out) and once leaving EZE (all passengers). I was pulled out of line twice in Narita and wanded after being told to get up on a box. It wasn’t a big deal. The pat downs lasted all but 5 to 10 seconds and I was told to move along. My junk wasn’t touched. I am not a homo either. The guy in EZE seemed to be a bit embarressed to have to do it.
A rather idiotic comment you just posted. We are not talking about Narita, we are talking about the U.S.A., and we are not talking about some time ago, we are dealing with the present, as TSA procedures changed a couple weeks ago. Extended gropes have been documented as lasting 15-20 minutes, including disassembly of prosthetics. Both males and females have had genitals handled. Your experiences overseas and in the past are IRRELEVANT.
