<p>The 30-year-old woman put up a post on Facebook to narrate her ordeal in Germany: &quot;I was taken into a room, and was asked to lift my dress/ take it off so that I could be checked to make sure I wasn&#39;t &#39;carrying anything under my clothes&#39;. This whole ordeal happened in front of my 4 year old (sic).&quot;</p>

<p>&quot;I was given no explanation as to why I was put through this ordeal. My constant requests to be patted down gently because of a recent abdominal surgery (proof of which I was carrying on hand) was constantly ignored and resulted in being shouted at aggressively by the woman in charge. She then proceeded to call her supervisor who parroted the same lines about how they wanted me to take my dress off,&quot; she further wrote.</p>
