Nudity and your rights.....

Airport security will soon have a scanner that can see through your clothing....civil rights organizations are concerned that your privacy and modesty may be jepordized.So what's the difference when you go to the Doctor and they have you strip down for a medical exam? I don't recall signing a consent form with my Doctor. They not only see you neeked, sometimes they even handle the "merchandise".....

    If that's the case, can I walk into the airport naked since they will be seeing the goods anyway?

    We do not have a right to "all out" nudity, we only have a right to "bare arms".

    Just a helpful reminder to Rembrant and Bee; Keep an eye on the doctors hands, if for any reason you see both, call it off quick!

    My doctor usually needs both hands for the ol' turn and cough.After all, he's got a lot of ground to cover.

    Bullzeye,I figured YOUR doctor would need an assistant to help him. I mean he'd have to in order to maneuver around all of the Bull.

    What SPig said, plus, a Dr. is a professional and there is a reason for what he/she does - security gaurds at the airport are on the low end of the pay and education scale - that breeds unprofessionalism. And, there is no NEED for them to see anyone nekkid.I bet the socialist movie stars, models, etc. will not let this happen...if anybody is gonna see them nude, they'll demand a paycheck for it.

    You've got to consider though, for every attractive woman, you'd have 50 fat old men and women Makes it seem less attractive, eh?

    Hey Bee, you just need to put on some more weight after you get so big, they give you two of those gowns, one for the front and one for the back, The thing that I have never understood is why they don't just make them all in a size 3XL then the old grannies could wrap them around a couple of times..besides the health care professionals get used to neked bodies, its just us modest folks that it bothers. I know my wife is a nurse and worked in Surgery for about 25 years.....OTO

    so OTO- are you saying that no matter what type of birthday suit you have on, you can not impress the woman? Either you need a new suit or a new woman

    I have had to live with this old body of mine for almost 57 years and the little lady for about 32 years. When you get older you kind of get set in your ways and are very resistant to change. So I think I will just leave everything alone, besides I could end up with a new wife that might not give over being mad about me bringing home a new gun or Knife! Regards Auto P.S. Maybe old BEE will loan me his silk smok'n jacket for the next time I go in for the old digital eximination, Oh well I may be done with that anyway the doc and I both know that I have a swollen prostate already, so why check it!
