The LGBT community periodically pushes back against airport security, and for good reason. As the writer of this article in Slate, who describes herself as "butch", says:
There’s little rhyme or reason to when people mistake me for male, and sometimes it happens when I least expect it. It rarely bothers me, but when someone in a position of power over you can’t interpret who—or what—you are, it can have negative repercussions.
The fact that people get flagged for what's under their clothes is proof that naked scanners are a gross invasion of everyone's privacy.
