I found that the biggest hassle was getting wanded. Why? Because it didn't stop at wanding. I was lunging with both legs, seated lifting feet, standing spead eagle for a pat down....they patted down everything, right down to fondling the buckles. I felt like they owed me dinner for the feel they copped! Biggest issue was it upset my son, seeing his dad treated like a criminal by the "police". He"s 6 1/2 and was crying through the glass partition. They wouldn't have treated a woman in a skirt to that, and shouldn't have me. If I was wearing a pair of cargo shorts, I would have gone straight through, even if a snap or 2 did set off the alarm.
It sounds like I'm in the minority, but I'll never fly kilted again. Not worth the humiliation....
