Everyone who travels is familiar with TSA scans and how they can seemingly throw up a yellow flag and make you feel guilty even though you aren't. Today's post may explain why that happens. What seems to be the culprit is sweat so if you're nervous or in a warm climate your chances of a pat down go up, the bad news is it is usually in the groin area especially for men, but wait! there's advice on how to avoid the problem. The type of clothing isn't a factor though the sweat shows as shadows in their equipment, so for men you will want to wear briefs instead of boxers and pull your pants up so you lower region is high and tight as sagging pants can also produce shadows. One last word be patient if you do get a pat down, they aren't doing it because they like to.
