I admit it was stupid and wrong of me.
She was awful and I admittedly was dog tired from my trip.
I was traveling in leggings and a baggy sweatshirt and was bra-less underneath. She told me to remove my sweathshirt (I suppose because it was too baggy). I said I can't and started to approach her to explain why, rather than announce to the long line there that I wasn't wearing a bra.
She started yelling at me to take of my sweatshirt and to do it NOW!. So, I decided that the better part of valor was to suck the niceities up and actually announce to the 50 or so persons there that I had no bra on.
So, apparently that pissed her off even more.
She decided to fire up the full body scan machine. It hadn't been used since I started waiting in line, so they had to warm it up.
It was clear that this additional wait was punishment to me for actually having a valid excuse not to remove my sweatshirt.
Finally, after it was warmed up, I went through.
And, the agent decide that wasn't enough. Now, ALL I was wearing were leggings and a baggy sweatshirt. My flipflops were in a tray along with my watch and jewelry. That's it - just leggins and sweatshirt. So, the scan was more than an accurate representation of what was on my person.
Yet, that still wasn't enough of a power trip for the agent. She decided she needed to frisk me, too, in an effort to prove that she had balls, I guess, or that she really, really wanted some.
And, her frisk of me was more than obnoxious and violating. THAT is why I muttered what I did.
