None, people are just weirded out by the millimeter wave scanners. They think the workers get to see their genitals.

The workers were able to see your genitals, they just claim that they don't now but we have no real evidence to confirm that.

true

I'll let them take a picture over getting the, "It's not gay if it's TSA" uncle touchy treatment though

Yeah if I'm quick enough getting my shoes off so we're all together, I can go through the metal detector with my wife and kid since they almost always let the kid and parents use that over the mmWave machine.

IDGAF. I'd get buck naked at TSA if needed, just don't fucking touch me. I don't have a problem being naked but I really don't like strange dudes getting up in my business.

Yeah, they replaced them with a green checkmark or whatever I think, but someone in the back room can still see the raws.
