I always get "randomly" chosen (for a variety of specific reasons) when going through foreign (not UK, they are fine ;)) checkpoints. Usually I either have to do body scanner or interview/pat down/strip search. So I've seen all sorts of security setups and privacy intrusions. In an opinion on this I am biased because going through a scanner doesn't worry me. There is no feeling of sexual or privacy intrusion for me. It's just step in, scan, step out and move on. But I can understand how it does concern people. I think if they must use these things there should be alternatives offered - refusal of all of which would, I feel, make it fair to refuse entry to the plane.
