a couple more thoughts related to transsexuality and why the capacity of airport security to see people's junk is a concern with tangible effects for some people (I'm the OP from this thread) -
If ignorant security officers see a pre-op transsexual woman and can tell her junk isn't standard-issue, they could misinterpret it as an elaborate disguise that merits taking her into custody for questioning (leading to missed flights, etc). Which would suck.
