Re: Another advantage of the bra-free lifetsyle
security at the airport is a necessary evil, in these times. That is why i travel the airlines without a bra at all, most of the time. However, a no-bra look can get you booted off the airplane also as we have seen in other newsclips, especially if a short skirt is involved.
In the situation encountered in the newsclip, I would have removed the bra right there on the spot for examination. That is what they wanted, right? There just is no time for missing one's airplane and being delayed 4 hours, so modesty goes out the window. I would object to groping by the tsa however.

Re: Another advantage of the bra-free lifetsyle
Just like Moni in the "Air Travel" thread, I haven't worn a bra while traveling by air for several years either. Most of my bras are underwired too, so it's just now worth the worry or hassle. Besides that, looser clothing is much more comfortable on planes anyway.
And like you Denise...I'd rather be seen to be topfree than groped by a TSA agent.

Funny thing most of the people who wanna do harm to our country are already IN the country! Much as I hate the idea of bras I dont think its the airport security's business to make women feel like they need to go braless if they dont want to.

I guess the airport security have turned into the fashion police. We should be careful our our free country is going to turn into the kind of totalitarian state that we have been trying to fight. Then all the freedoms women have won will be for naught.

Giving into these pigs just gives them permission to do these kinds of humiliating things to women again. How far are women going to let this charade go?

Theres enough things that make women miss their flights, they dont need to miss it because some pompous security thinks a woman has a bomb planted in her hoisery. There is a line and I think these people are almost crossing it. National security is no reason to violate a woman's privacy and humility.
If these women are really intent on getting a bomb on a plane then fondling their underwear is not going to keep them from doing it.

Re: Another advantage of the bra-free lifetsyle
When I return to the U.S from another country on my private boat the procedure is that I must call custom's and they may tell me to report to a custom's and immigration office within 24 hours. Every time but one, I've been cleared over the phone. One time I was asked to present my passport at a regional airport where clearly my boat went uninspected.
I've legally entered Canada and returned to the U.S, by simply filling out and mailing in a form and never passing through custom's or immigration.
I've personally driven over a road to Mexico from the U.S. that has no customs or immigration on the U.S. side.The Mexican side consisted of a guy in a small shack waving to people as they drove by. As we all know, people and items cross this border illegally every day.
My city and many others don't make any attempt to secure the city water supply. There isn't even a lock on the water tower.
Although we are getting better at doing quick, limited screenings on sea containers, a great many of these bring incredibly large, potentially unknown shipments into the U.S. that are never inspected, but shipped all over the country.
Yet we feel a need to check an underwire bra?

Re: Another advantage of the bra-free lifetsyle
The pre-flight security obviously does nothing to prevent people or contraband from coming into the country. The purpose is to prevent people from bringing weapons on a plane to hijack or destroy it. At least supposedly. A more cynical outlook is that the goal is to make people feel safe (or even more cynically, feel afraid) rather than provide real protection. This is called security theater.

Thats why more bad things happen IN the country rather than during the trip because people are so interested in checking women's underwear than the luggage they might have coming in on the plane which probably has the real bad stuff in it. It does no good to make people feel safe unless they actually ARE safe because people are smart and they know when they areint safe and when theyre tried to make feel safe under false pretenses it just becomes a joke. I think we need to do a better job of securing our borders and actually making sure that the people who live here actually BELONG here and if they dont then they should be investigated and if need be removed from the country.

Re: Another advantage of the bra-free lifetsyle
I know nobody replied to my post here because they dont like what I said about the airport security and about people being here without being legal citizens but I just want to say I dont like illegal aliens being in the country because that is part of the reason terrorists are able to do what they do here. I realize some of them actually have fake ids and areint real illegal aliens but thats part of the reason security at airports and other places is so high and if something is not done about such people being able to get in then the situation with the security and cracking down on people will get worse and does anyone think they will be free to go topfree or do anything else for that matter if people's drive to make this country safe turn it into some kind of totalitarian country or police state? I know people here probably like illegal aliens because they bring in the democratic votes and bring us business but in the interest of keeping the country safe and ensuring topfreedom for women in the future they really need to go. We gotta make sure that everyone who lives in this country actually belongs here if we want this place to stay safe and free like its meant to be.

No, it's because this one like the majority of your posts is hardly intellectually stimulating, not well reasoned or argued, strays from the real or related to issue of topfreedom, and some people only check on the boards every few days or so. Nothing really compelling about it to take time to reply to it. Sorry.
