very, very nervous

[Ralitsa]

yesterday I was flying from Green Bay out to PA for Thanksgiving.

When I got to the security at the airport, the TSA guy about had a meltdown. I was wearing a nice floral skirt with a sweater I picked up on sale a few weeks ago, and heels with black nylons. So he had some trouble deciding I was a guy and which button he should push on the millimeter wave detector. Then the machine flagged a few things, so he needed to do a pat down. He was trying really really hard to find someone else to do it for him, but they weren't bailing him out, his supervisor just looked at him like "you know what you need to do, just shut up and do it." The lady assisting asked me about 4 times if I wouldn't really rather prefer to have a private screening, so eventually I let them off, and said "yes, maybe it would be best."

So I went in the back room with the TSA guy and a witness. He spent about 5 minutes explaining every single thing he was going to do, although I think I knew more about the procedure than he did . Finally he got on with it, sweating and scared to death the whole time. And like the total b!\(h I am, I had no mercy on him and didn't make it any easier I suppose I could have been really bad, but I was amused enough just watching him suffer through it. Ultimately, he did fine and survived the ordeal, but it was really stressful for him

Excellent! I have not had the experience you had, but I figured they would work it out and there won't really be a problem for us. I go to the airport with no anticipation one way or the other and know to do whatever they request.

I do think it's funny the TSA person was struggling, but you may have saved one of us in the future. The TSA person has now gone through the process and as you said, survived. That's just going to make it faster and easier for the next one of us girls that gets pulled aside.

Thank you so much for torturing the TSA person.

Did you tell him he should toss the gloves out right away, least he catch it and start dressing up?

I needed a story like this right now - brought a little smile to my face!

Seems to be an example of a person who is very insecure about their own sexuality not very mature or perhaps just ignorant. That being said I am light years from the confidence you have - here I am world this is who I am, get over it!

Honestly, Ralitsa. It doesn't matter how pretty your dress is, or how high your heels are, no one could ever call you a sissy. You are good humored and discreet, and yet , you have balls of polished brass. Bravo!

Very good story. I had something similar happen to me. I was pulled over for a DUI. I admitted to the officer I had a few beers. I took the breath test and barely failed. I was taken to the county jail where I was stripped searched. At the time I was just wearing panties under my guy clothes. The officer who stripped searched me noticed the panties and inquired about them a few times. I told him each time I like the way the panties felt. It seemed he was a bit uncomfortable with it but continued on. I was also glad he did not get a few other of his fellow officers to come look.

I saw him later the next day while being bailed out. He asked me how I was and was surprised that I was still at the jail. I told him I was OK. I was very appreciative of how he handled himself.

I am flying back to Dallas for Christmas. I plan on flying dressed. I have talked to some of the girls here that fly dressed all the time for some tips. Almost all of them gave the same advice.

make sure your ID and your Boarding Pass/Ticket match. This is what TSA mainly looks for. How your dressed is secondary. If you do get tagged, just be polite and do what Ralitsa did and enjoy watching the TSA go thru the motions.

Hugs,
