If you opt not to be screened by the Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT), or a walk-through metal detector (WTMD), you will undergo a pat-down. You may walk through together or you may lead the animal through separately on a leash. But after ordering and returning items multiple times due to feeling uncomfortable in them, I realized that this wasn’t my style.You and your service dog/animal will be screened by a walk-through metal detector. No shade to them, everyone has their own style that they like and feel confident in.
At first, I felt pressured to wear the same, their matching sets, bike shorts, crop tops, and more. For example, at Miami University, I see a lot of girls in sororities wearing similar outfits throughout the day. Everyone feels the desire for belonging and to fit in with the people around them. Let’s create a culture that celebrates expression rather than forces unrealistic expectations.ĭressing for you and not for others is easier said than done.
But do we really need to dress to impress? Shouldn’t those around us love us for us rather than the clothes we are wearing? I remember feeling relieved when I had a conversation with my boyfriend and he explained that he would love me regardless of what I wear (the only exception being the ill-fitting cat eye glasses I wore in high school but that’s beside the point). From a young age, girls are introduced to a culture where they are expected to dress to impress… specifically the men around them. Standards have been set for centuries regarding expectations surrounding dress, especially for women.
