AIBU that I should really 'report' this?

Hi

I'm not one to make an issue out of things normally so would appreciate advice from MN posters.

I frequently fly and every single time I set the alarms off going through security - I'm made to take shoes off, hold hands above head in an x-ray cubicle and then 'frisked' by a female security officer with the x-ray 'wand' - sorry not sure of the official name ha!

I was flying out a couple of months ago and while the female security officer was 'frisking' me she definitely felt longer around my breasts/bra - in so far as actually 'cupping' my breasts and running her fingers across the whole breast, rather than a quick feel of the bra underwire bit.

I'm by no means traumatised by it and absolutely appreciate the need for extensive security measures - just felt this was not the norm I'd experienced and whether I'm making a mountain out of a mole hill

Has anyone else experienced the same? And if you have would you report it?

Frisking never feels ok...it just doesn't. Sometimes they're spoken to about being extra careful or "be particularly cautious today...don't be lazy about things" and then, you will find that they're more "detailed" than usual.

1. You can stash things in your bra

2. underwriting can set off the alarms

Expect it was caution rather than anything sinister

Frisking, if done properly, will feel uncomfortable if you aren’t used to it. I was taught to do it and it’s surprising what you can miss if you aren’t in the ‘this feels overly intimate’ zone.
