Molestation vs Massage


I don’t go through the full-body scanner at security. The choice has something to do with thinking it is pointless, the frequency with which I fly and would be exposed to rays, and a distrust of TSA to properly maintain their machines.

So when you opt out of the machine, it’s a different experience depending on where you are.

In the US, as I’ve written before, you get a narrated molestation detailing every place they touch and what part of their hand they are going to use. 

In Belgium the security agent just said “and now it’s time for your free massage”!

In Thailand, they just let me walk around the machine and bypass the search altogether.
