Now that women are being taken seriously a a terrorist threat on par with men, and in a climate of security paranoia and unclear rules, we have to deal with these issues. The bottom line is that this is what results when individuals are pressured to impose strike rules but not told clearly what those strict rule are and how they should be enforced calmly, ethically and without bias. Any one of us could be that femail employee who wasn't sure what to do and decided to appeal to her superior. More obviously any one of us could have been that woman. And yet, I know the news constantly carries stories of women who use their bodies as weapon carriers. The explicit ones are more sensationalistic & both fictional spy movies and real news encourage a thought-process about them which is pornigraphic and leads to situations like this. This makes me never want to travel to the states, but that's exactly where I'm vacationing this summer. Are there any anthologies happening about these US border democratic abuses? The funny, the absurd, the chilling, the outraging? There should be. Everybody's got a story. I've got one.

This is outrageous. I can attest to how painful it is to remove and reinsert nipple rings and I feel terrible for this woman.
I've had doctors lecture me on them during exams which I also find inexcusable behavior.
