You nailed it. When I wear a T-shirt and have my tattoos visible, security treat me like shit and I always get pulled aside for extra checks and drug swipes. If I wear a nice suit, I get smiles and no hassle.
Isn’t strange, that not to be pulled aside for extra checks me, as woman, I have to look bad,not to be interesting for security, opening luggage ect, where males can check. If I come with nice dress and makeup, hair done, I am wwwaaaayyy likeli going to be stopped for extra check. Even if later female officer comes to check if I am bot bringing anything, males will stand and watch me during … so, bunny tail, oversized t-shirt and something sloppy usually doesn’t attract their attention.

I can’t help but wonder: a test scenario missing here is what if you wear a boring ‘professional’ suit and hairdo like men do.
Of course, a case of a dude in a dress also remains to be checked.
Or a dude in more flamboyant menswear that isn’t professional, but is definitely nicer
