0%. i bet just like pretty much every company, they have to follow federal employment laws and you can't discriminate on sex or sexual preference.

I hate to admit it, but OP kinda has a point. of course there is no alternative or solution, which makes it pretty much another useless thread

I was thinking about this. I plan to take an airplane one day, and I am certainly not going to irradiate myself with a full body scanner.

I don't mind a groping at all, but I also don't want a homosexual male getting a boner while feeling me up. Are the TSA Human Resources people actively filtering out homosexual applicants?

I think discrimination is actually a necessary evil here. We wouldn't allow straight men to handle female travelers, and we wouldn't allow straight women to grope a man, solely because the groper would get sexual satisfaction.

I have nothing against gay people, I believe they should have all the rights as any other person, but when it comes to touching my junk at an airport, I want 100% assurance that the person groping me isn't getting sexually aroused.

What does ATOT think? Should TSA agents be screened for homosexuality?

I thought YOU were gay!
Is it gay FEMALES you don't want feeling you up, or a Male you have no attraction to?

<sees who OP is>

Yeah, I think we can safely say no one will be getting aroused giving him a pat down.

OP: Are you under the presumption that gay men view all other males as sexual targets?

Before you answer that. If you are straight, do you find ALL females sexually attractive? (Sorry, that was a trick question).

Let's say one of them is. So what?

The TSA guy was very nice to me the last time I flew. He put his right hand on my shoulder to comfort me while doing the cavity search. No, it was his left hand. Come to think of it, he had both hands on my shoulders.

grope? no. professionally frisk at an airport because he's a tsa agent? yes.

what makes you think that gay male tsa agents are any less professional than a straight person?

They enjoy the company of men...naked.

If he feels me up, I would be satisfied if he just went to the backroom to enjoy himself rather than infront of me. At least I'll have the illusion of a disgusted straight man feeling me up that way.

When I'm the dictator of India, all patdowns in my country shall be handled by hot nubile women in bikinis who will make you strip to your underwear.

I'm sure none of you will complain. :D

What assurances do we have that the OP isn't a homosexual? I want to know who I'm posting with after all.

What kind of forum is this where a homosexual could gain access and try to influence the rest of us with his homosexual agenda?

huh?

i've had a female doctor give me physicals before.. and i assume she's married.


not every one is as whiny about it as you.

not that the TSA monkeys have the years of training and whatnot that drones in a professional demeanor, but i highly doubt people apply to be TSA agents solely for the purpose of groping people.

I'd think ATOT as a whole would label the above as hate propaganda, but sadly they are too focused on the OP than the true post.

While no federal law prohibits this type of discrimination in private employment, an executive order specifically outlaws discrimination based on sexual orientation in the federal government.

Almost half the states and the District of Columbia have laws that currently prohibit sexual orientation discrimination in private employment: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, and Wisconsin. Some of these states also specifically prohibit discrimination based on gender identity. (In addition, a handful of states have laws prohibiting sexual orientation discrimination in public workplaces only.)
