Ok... lets change the word 'privalege' to the phrase "convenience afforded to you".
You are guaranteed the right to unreasonable search and seizure under the 4th Amendment... but what is considered "unreasonable" 10 years ago is far from unreasonable today.
Would you have thought a small box cutter on a plane would have been such a life-altering device 10 years ago? I can list 3000+ people who wish the airlines did.
10 years ago, no one would have dreamed that someone would pack their shoe or underwear with explosives with the intent on blowing themselves and the plane full of passenger to "Allah".
If mandatory cavity searches were the only way to guarantee my flight was safe... show me where to stand to drop my pants.
Where do you draw the line to guarantee I'm safe?
Why should I have to worry that Ahknahd Towel-head in the seat next to me with fantasies of 72 virgins waiting for him, might be wearing C-4 Fruit of the Looms... because your sensitive about a TSA working who looks at thousands of images a day is looking at your an alien-like image on a body scan machine.

Like I said... you dont have to take a plane... and you dont have to every worry about the body scan or someone touching you during a pat down.
Pretty plain and simple logic
