My reaction when I heard about the proposed scanners was that I simply wouldn't fly anymore. Part of being transsexual, at least for me, is an immense sense of discomfort with my body, which makes me avoid situations where I might have to expose myself. For example, at present I avoid going to the gym because I don't want to change clothing there. (Of course there are other issues involved in such situations: e.g., sex-segregated facilities.)
