@JamieSueAustin: I don't really like putting all my liquids in 100 ml containers, sizing my suitcase to fit in the overhead bin, or wearing shoes that are easy to remove. Granted, all of these have nothing to do with my anatomy, but they're the only examples that affect me today. If someday I end up with a metal hip that sets off the detector, develop a disability, or progress into the two-seat-needing range, I'm sure I'll find the extra burdens annoying too. But I'd understand at that point that I'm an exception, not the rule. Systems are designed to work for 90% of the people 90% of the time. It's not economical to do it any other way. (Of course, in the case of the TSA, it sucks for 90% of the people 90% of the time. They should work on that.)
They're not saying you can't fly unless you make adjustments to your wardrobe. You have the option to do whatever you want to. You could seek a screening-friendly bra or you can take the risk that your metal-containing bra will set off the detector. If that happens, you might be subjected to additional screening, like any one else who sets off the detector for any reason. Maybe they'll take you at your word when you say "it's my bra", maybe they won't. Maybe they have a maybe they have a millimeter-wave scanner and can see all that's going on underneath everyone's clothes.
But what do I know? I'm just some guy on the internet who went to [biggerbras.com] , found a 56K soft cup bra, and decided I am now qualified to unleash my advice on the world.
