Nipple ring trouble at airport

Typically you can only use people of the same gender as the person when searching them (exception is police in the process of arresting a suspect, but that is only a quick weapon search, otherwise its done only with an officer that is the same sex to avoid sexual harassment/molestation lawsuits).

Who would they use if you had to pat-down Ru Paul? :rotfl:

I've had my right nipple pierced since I was 21 years old and have never encountered this sort of problem. I suspect this could be due to the fact I'm male.
Clearly the officials in this case are lacking in professionalism and tact, demonstrated by their 'snickering' causing this woman obvious and unnecessary distress. One may ask if the request to remove the rings prior to boarding the flight when no removal is required by law was motivated by more base attitudes, similar to some joking comments here. Whilst this is ok in GT, airport security generally does without such ribaldry. And rightly so. Just you try and get one of the officers to have a laugh and see how fast the gloves and KY appear.
