And, while we all decide amongst ourselves whether it's okay for strangers to see through our clothes and look at our hairy pork swords / hairy sword sheaths, we will ignore the play they used to bring this into effect.

Then await the next great thing in security to make us all safe. Offset the cost with increased air ticket prices and the reduction in movement of the world populace. The people who have worked hard to travel.

Travel changes a (wo)man like no other form of education or experience. The sharing and understanding of ideals and beliefs and of hopes and fears, seems to be an idea alien to all but a few of us on this planet at the moment.

Stay safe, keep warm.

Let the cake and arse party continue.

There are a lot of posts to read through but for the most part I agree with the facts and opinions of those against this invasion of privacy. Sexuality has nothing to do with it-I am self confident and like the way I look-However, I am not comfortable with people seeing me nude. That is my choice-It is 'my' body and it should not limit my ability to see family and or friends who live far away. There are plenty of people in the world who would give away their body, take nude photos or not feel wronged by Someone taking a nude photo of them -That's not me-Those people shouldnt speak for me or my body nor should they dictate that I shouldn't fly.
I don't want the average joe looking at my body. I don't want a stranger looking at my body. At least i KNOW my doctor- know-they are credible. I also don't get nude every time i see my doc-actually close to never.


This is a violation of 'my' rights.

This is 'my' body and I won't take the excuse-well then don't fly-That is unfair and unjust.

All this and they refuse to stereotype to save lives. This is an invasion of privacy if I have ever seen one. /raiseflameshield
