It's time to go see my girl again. After trying Imp's wonderful suggestion (hot & cold vibrators), she has insisted that we do it again. I'm packing as we speak, but realize that I have to bring my smaller, flexible vibrator for anal play. Since I'm only bringing a carry-on bag, this means I'm probably going to have to pull it out and demonstrate that it works. Really, I used to think buying condoms at the grocery store was embarrassing. :rolleyes:

You won't necessarily have to pull it out. I usually bring a toy when I leave for more than a day, and I always take it in my carry-on. I haven't been asked to demonstrate even when I went abroad.

On a side note, one trick I use to avoid unplanned busing is putting the batteries in upside down.

Vibes aren't usually considered to be deadly weapons, and if anybody asks, tell them they serve a therapeutic purpose, because your muscles get stiff after tennis, or something like that. They won't believe you, but that's their problem.

I remember hearing a guy telling me about an embarassing time buying condoms. He had brought them to the counter when he realized the clerk was the mother of his teenaged girl friend. :confused:
 
just pack your carryon with all kinds of way out porn mags...
I mean like really crazy shit...No kiddie stuff tho...
And they will be so shocked, they wont dig further...to find the vib...LOL
Or you could just UPS it!

DOPF!!! hehehe

Kiten got busted with one on her way home from here. She had to pull it out (of the bag, you pervs :D ), and put batteries in it, then turn it on. Of course, it could have just been a really horny inspector enjoying the visual. :catroar:

Good god. I wasn't aware they could do that.

The wife and I NEVER take toys with us when we travel to the States any more. We make do, and let's face it, there isn't a lot going to happen when sleeping in the bedroom right across the hall from the inlaws!!

I definitely would never take toys in hand luggage. I can see the faces of the x-ray operators. *blush*. NO thank you!

On several of our trips to and from States, both of us at some time have had our suitcases opened and searched, Stateside, and a polite little note left on top informing us that this had been done, which we found when we got home and opened the cases. I have to admit, they repacked the case, better than we packed it in the first place. We assumed they were searched because of the large amount of batteries and a couple of the small vibrators you insert in toys.....I guess on the x-ray they could look a little bit like bullets.....and as for the leather harness.....who knows what they thought, but at least I didn't have to see their faces when they opened them.

I blame Imp. Kiten was perfectly happy until we tried her suggestion, now it's become a requirement (that woman really is quite brilliant :cathappy: ).

Unfortunately, the one I have is the only one that can be used that way (it's the smallest one we have, and very flexible, which she needs). I'm going to have to square my shoulders, smile pleasantly, and ask him/her how they'd like me to demonstrate. :D

Oh, it's really quite fun.

I can still see that TSA guard's eyes as she stuck her hand into my carry-on & wrapped her rubber-gloved hand around my rather substantial dildo.

I just said, "Um, you might not want to pull that out and wave it around."

She thanked me. :D




Des - :kiss: Think of it as part of the adventure ... then write a story about it.

Humor writing isn't my strong suit. Do you think I could get Jenny to help (this soooo sounds like something she'd write)?
 
:D Darlin just give the the biggest smile they have ever seen when they start looking through your bag;)

We take ours and i had one in my carry on going through security coming back from the states. I was standing waiting for the bag to come through looking at the people at the machine. The belt stops the operators eyes got a bit big, she looked at me, I grinned, she blushed and bag came through. But if they want to pull it out and wave it about fine by me. I'm really shy except in areas like this and my juvenile nature will make me try and make them blush :devil:

I'd be concerned about messing with the battery placement. Most battery-powered items have warnings about putting the batteries in wrong. I always envision that scene in "Ghostbusters" where he warns against crossing the streams. :D
 
I can’t find it now, but there is a thread on the general board (I think) dealing with this. It is hilarious. One of the high points is
“What to do when they find your toy”
1. Look him or her square in the eye and smile
2. Exclaim “I wouldn’t touch that, it hasn’t been washed!”
3. Smile and ask, “Would you like a demonstration?”
Another good piece of advice is to not try and get though security wearing any of it internally!

ETA: I agree that the inspector was trying to have some fun at Kitten's expense, she should have gotten his name and complained.

my bag was searched once going into Canada, and the two customs agents were women.

I swear, they acted like they'd never seen a vibrator before, and turned it on, then off, then on, then off...

I finally said, "Um...you can keep that, since you're so fascinated by it. I can get another."

They didn't laugh, but they stopped.
 
What about just taking the batteries out and buying new ones when you get wherever you're going? I think I might even consider just buying a new toy when I got there and leaving it behind when I went home.

God, Lisa, just thinking about getting through security wearing it internally gave me the willies. Can you imagine? I'd have been thinking I'd found a great hiding place too.

I love these threads.

I usually leave the toys home. Security around here is not to be messed with, and they don't like jokes...

My worry next time I cross the border is handcuffs. :devil:

Batteries? Bad move. Kiten should have just vamped them and said sexily, "Batteries? Hell, this one is atomic powered and you would ned radiation shields to watch! Get me your damn supervisor."
 
LOL Cloudy I love your come back asking them if they wanted to keep it. Better yet, if they kept playing with it I would say, look if you keep turning it on and off you will use all the batteries up and Im not going to get any fun out of it after bringing it all this way!

PS Id pack the biggest one I owned just to make a point~ Im sure the horse one would be rather interesting flung around the security line!
