Male chastity device and US airport security

[Rainbow123]

Hi

My sub wears a CB6000 chastity device. Its been on a few weeks but he has worn one long term in a previous relationship.

He is flying to Houston soon (from the Uk) and thinks the padlock may be an issue as it will set off the machines etc. He says flying ex UK is ok, it's the US bit.

I have some plastic seals but I don't want to put temptation in his path by using one of these. Plus I want him properly locked.

Does anyone know how the airport thing works?

I am also concerned at him being abroad and having an issue with the device/his parts and I am not there to unlock him. So maybe a plastic seal is the way to go.

He clearly wants to be in chastity so won't take it off, I guess?

I am new to this and my head is spinning...does anyone fly in and out of the States in one of these?

US homeland security are not the friendliest of people anyway, its a dumb idea to even considering trying to enter the states wearing something that is going to set off every sensor in the security area ...all thats going to happen is that he will piss those people off and have the humiliation of having to remove it and explain to the staff what it is in front of hundreds of other travellers. and if he wants to object he can expect to be on a plane back to the UK faster than his his feet will touch the ground ...you do not fuck with these people they have authority to refuse you admission and under the VWP there is no right of appeal.

 

[Rainbow123]

Thanks Candeecain, presumably the plastic seal idea is the way to go then. There is no metal on the device so it wouldn't set off a sensor. But might it be felt in a frisk?

I can't let him go without one ...

 

[candeecain]

it would show on the x ray you are required to have as you go through security and they may pull him over and request its removal. you have to remove your belt in your jeans everything from your pockets boots/shoes even sometimes i have had to remove items of jewellery i do think its an unwise decision to risk provoking attention from homeland security ...they are not known for their understanding and chosen for their lack of humour. It is a lot of $ for a flight only to be sent straight back on the next one without every getting into the US!!

I think in this case you would be better off just sucking it up, like candeecain has said. It is just not worth any risk, especially the emotional risk to your sub of having to suffer through a potentially humiliating ordeal.

if worst comes to worst and they think it's some weird kind of explosive or explosive trigger, they can also "disappear" him.

So if you want him back, alive, unmolested and unharmed I would just draw on him with a sharpie marker or something.

 

[Noor]

And yes they could feel it in a frisk, the frisking of males done at some US airports these days would be considered sexual assault if done outside of them.

Please realize that the ground level TSA personnel are not paid well, do not require much of an education and are probably not that sexually open minded. I once had to explain a non latex condom and instead menstrual cup and they were very comfortable about that and thought I was a deviant.

A male friend of mine was cavity searched a few months back because he had a guitar pick up deep in his pocket.

The TSA have a hard enough job, please don't non-consensually involve them in your kink.

 

[Rainbow123]

Ohhhhhhhhh dearrrrrrrr

I know you are all right. I guess he travels without it and replaces it when he gets there...and sends me a photo

I have no fears he will be unfaithful, it's not about that...

Thanks for all your responses

Maybe agree some kind of mental CBT - as in, if he becomes at all aroused when not wearing the chastity device, he has do something as a punishment or keep a record for you to check later.

Ok, I work at an airport. No I'm not TSA I don't frisk, fondle, or search people. Do NOT let him wear it, or the plastic ties!!! Do you know how many sexual toys/gear are found in the parking deck/bathrooms because they were not allowed on the plane? One woman who was just going one state over was asked to remove a pair of nipple clamps her owner had asked her to wear.

You've never heard of the underwear bomber?

Good for you!

I really appreciate people who can tell the difference between fantasy and reality, and who can show enough flexibility to work around reality.

He shouldn't wear it, period. The scanners they use now pick up everything, and it is a pain in the ass. I wear a sports bra to keep my breasts flattened (still have some pretty good sized ones, even though transition is a lot of years behind me now) and it was picked up, maybe because of the metal tabs or simply is showed. They checked me and actually tested it for explosive residue.....not sure if my old frog bra (now not available) would have been flagged. I can almost guarantee he will be harassed if he wears it.

An X-ray machine won't find it if it's plastic, but a body screening machine will see it. With the way terrorists are trying new things, it's likely it will be pointed out and he will then be scanned with a wand or patted down by hand.

The wand won't sound on anything plastic, but if it hits something hard in the crotch, he will be asked about it. If he's patted down by hand, the TSA will feel it on his hips and ask him what it is. It then depends on how well he can explain it to them, whether or not he will be taken into a private room and strip searched.

If he is strip searched, they will see it as a strange device and more than likely confiscate it for the safety of other passengers. The TSA is no nonsense and even if this is just a sexual thing between you and him, they will not see it that way and he could end up on a list that he doesn't want to be on. My advice is to leave the damn thing at home.

 

[KlaytonFrost]

I second the advice not to take any chances. The people frisking him are not likely to be very understanding. Trust him to put it on again when he arrives

Also, definitely do NOT have him wear it with no way to take it off. Either use the plastic seals or give him an extra key. But leaving him no way to get it off if the need arises is a big no no.

Remember, you don't want to break your toy. (him, not the chastity device )

Which renders the whole concept of chastity, keyholders, etc-- pretty much meaningless.

Safety first!

 

[Rainbow123]

Thank you Stella for your kind words.

I had already decided I couldn't let him be locked up with no emergency contingency so far away from me. He suggested I give him the key in a sealed envelope which I thought was hilarious - he is a fucking undercover detective. I am sure he can work out how to unseal an envelope!!!

Anyway, it's coming off for the flights. He is delighted. I think.

 

[Stella_Omega]

Safety first!

Um, not necessarily. Sometimes, safety comes second. "Risk Aware Consensual Kink" remember?

Rainbow123, something makes me think you have found a terrific partner.

If you prefer it that way, and most 'Daddies' do, after all, that's one reason they are daddies and not mean ol' meanies

But the whole point of chastity is that the gentleman cannot remove the device. Like really, not. If he has an emergency out in easy reach, it's no longer chastity.

It's nothing I am interested in doing personally, but the psychology is fascinating and deserves respectful regard.

Actually, to me, giving him the out is the epitome of power and control. If I had a male sub, I would give him the key to carry with him all the time with that knowledge that a)he would never be tempted to open it for fear of disappointing me and b)to know that he has the out at any time but chooses not to use it.

Plus, the teasing and torture aspect of having the out within reach, but unable to use it would be a fun added bonus.

But then I'm more into mental bondage and domination than physical, Daddy and all.

 

[Stella_Omega]

Yeah... I've never talked to a chastity player who would have cared for that. They don't think of themselves as submissive by choice, see-- but as being subdued.

Guys all over the globe go through clever and amazing contortions to keep their keys out of their own hands.
