Everyone has to take off sweater, sweatshirt, coat, shoes, and sometimes belt and watch. I have flown in JFK, LAX, LAS, and MKE since the body scanners started. There's usually at least one line that uses a metal detector still. So I always pick that line. It is a joke, though, to see middle-class, middle-aged women in a long-sleeve shirt and jeans getting a body scan and then a subsequent pat-down. What a waste of my tax dollars.
