Miss USA, Susie Castillo, Sexually Molested by TSA Screener

Susie Castillo - Miss USA 2003

The latest addition to an ever-growing list of people sexually molested by the Transportation Security Administration happens to be a celebrity. Susie Castillo, Miss USA 2003, recently went through a TSA pat-down in the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, and a TSA screener touched her breasts, butt, and thighs. She even touched Castillo's genital area four times. Susie Castillo is an incredibly attractive Latina woman, so the TSA screener probably got a little too excited by Castillo's exotic attractiveness and decided to get a nice feel of the beauty queen's vagina.

People are going to come to the TSA's defense and say a woman conducted the pat-down, so there could not have been anything sexual about the touching. Do these people honestly believe that none of the female TSA screeners are lesbian or bisexual? There are plenty of lesbian and bisexual women in other careers, why would there not be at least a small percentage working for the TSA? It is just a fact of life that some women are sexually attracted to other women. Even more women are sexually attracted to unusually gorgeous women.

Who is to say, this TSA agent did not abuse her power to grope Susie Castillo? Susie Castillo says her vagina was touched by this TSA agent, and the TSA seems to be encouraging this sort of touching. Susie Castillo's story is very believable.  She plans to file a complaint with the TSA.

Castillo should not expect too much to come of her complaint, however. If she was molested by the TSA screener (and she probably was), Castillo needs to contact the local police, have the TSA screener arrested, and see that she is brought up on charges for sexual assault.

When you grab a woman's vagina against her wishes, that is sexual assault, right? The laws have not changed, have they? Just because a person is wearing a federal uniform, this does not mean they automatically get to go around grabbing vaginas all day. Hmm, well, actually that is the case right now, but that doesn't mean it is right. If a woman does not want someone touching her vagina, nobody should touch it.  Is that such a difficult concept? Even if this sort of molestation is making people feel a little safer, we cannot live in a society where the federal government can just start rubbing people's crotches whenever there might be some sort of security threat.

Susie Castillo is understandably quite upset about this experience. Read more about it on her blog.

"A small percentage?" What totally heterosexual man/woman would take a job that required them to feel the genitalia of the same sex all day everyday at work?
