    When strip searching a male, can officers touch him to check for contraband at...

    ...any point? I know that only male police officers are allowed to strip search male suspects taken into custody, but are they allowed to touch them at any point, once the suspect is completely naked? For example: if they put on rubber gloves, can they manually inspect the suspect's mouth, nose...

    Are police ever permitted to extract semen/sperm samples from male suspects?

    I know that in some investigations and when convicted criminals are booked into prison, officers can ask them to provide bodily fluid samples, usually including urine, blood and saliva. But are males also required to produce a semen/sperm sample? I assume that if this is the case, officers would...

    Why do I have to wear briefs when I report to military boot camp?

    I am a 28 year old male and will be reporting to military boot camp next week. I got a letter in the mail informing me of what I should wear when I report, and it stated that all recruits should come in a clean white t-shirt, jeans, running shoes, white sports socks and white briefs. Why are...

    A question for males--What would you wear if you had to report to jail to begin...
