Vibrators and airport security

[MrMikelobe1952]

A question for ladies who like to carry their toys with them when traveling. Do you take your toys in your carry-on, or put them in your luggage. If you use carry-on, then do they show up on the security x-rays. If your luggage, are you concerned about luggage searches.

 

[lilhez]

if your baggage is searched it is in a more private place

 

[MrMikelobe1952]

Thank you for the response. I was afraid this would die without any answers. I guess that's the only logical solution.
What do you carry with yourself when you travel?

 

[Donsehan]

this is an interesting question, not being a woman or owning a vibrator, I'll just give you a bump.

BUMP!!!!

 

[MrMikelobe1952]

Thanks for the expression of interest.
But still only two votes.
Both for luggage.

 

[sultryslayer]

I carry mine in my carry on luggage.

Never had a problem with they x ray machine or a search. But a fun fantasy though!

 

[tjgosurf]

I guess it would really help if I posted my thoughts on this since I used to be a TSA employee.

Carry it where you want. Yes it shows up on x-ray, but if the screeners make a big deal out of it. Sue them, hundreads of other women already have. So managers stress the fact that you will not make any comments about what are in peoples bags.

You like the idea? The screeners take you aside, to a private area, to discuss your belongings?

~G~

Something like that?

Thanks for the info, but consider this. As your carryon passes through the x-ray machine, YOU know that the screener is seeing the outline of your vibrator, or some obviously phallic object. His eyes made widen a little, he may conceal a little smirk, or he may have a complete poker face, but he sees one of your most personal, private possessions.

Anyway, the limited voting we have seen suggests a strong majority place their toys in their luggage. Is this for that reason. After all, it means you can't take your toy into the rest room and have mile high solo sex.

tj, I don't know if you are male or female from your profile. But, what did you see when you worked as a tsa?

Have you guys actually had your luggage searched through? Your carry ons? 'Cause I have.

Apparently I'm a very searchable person, and they just pop through all your crap right there on a little table in front of the door that leads to your plane.

I put it in my luggage simply because I get sick on plane rides and probably wouldn't be up for some self fulfillment time. Plus I don't like carry on's since they always get searched.

However, since you've put this question up it makes me want to go on a plane and put it in my purse. They can't take it away. What am I going to do? Vibrate the pilots neck to death? Hell....I might even use it for fun..... mwahahaha this idea totally has merit. I wanna do it now!

carry-on

I keep the vibe in the carry-on. However, the one I take with me on trips is pocket-rocket style, smaller than the length of the palm of my hand...
I dunno if anyone scanning the bag would even notice...

And if they do...it's probably a turn on for them, right? And who am I to deny someone of that? It's what I love to do. LOL

 

[Fitzdraco]

This reminds me of fight club. Where jack's bag is searched because it vibrates. 9 times out of 10 its a razor, but every once in a while it's a dildo. Of course in the event of a dildo ownership is never implied. It's a dildo, never your dildo.

Of course it probably happens more then you think, and after the 4th or 5th it becomes old hat except for the really wierd stuff.

Why Moved

I guess I better check the rules again, becuz I don't understand why this was moved. I try to pay attention to the rules.

Anyway, I'm glad to see that this has started to get some response (10 votes, anyway).

Kris - It would be great if this thread gave you inspiration for some fun.

KItten - Would it turn you on to know that a screener had seen it and was thinking of you pleasuring yourself with it?

Fitz - What do you mean by the really wierd stuff?

 

[done_got_old]

Sorry, I don't have any toys.

Indeed it would.

Some years ago my lady friend and I decided to spend a weekend in Florida to to escape the Maine winter. We packed quickly, just carry ons, no checked baggage.

Well I ended up with her's and she with mine at the x-ray machine. Didn't think much of it 'till the young black girl on the other end asked me to open the bag.

She pulled out the "massager" and looked at her supervisor who whispered something in her ear and she quickly stuffed it back in the bag.

The whole time my lady friend stood there laughing her ass off. I'll never forget the look on her face as she stuffed it back in the bag.

[MrMikelobe1952]

Glad to see this has gotten at least a litte attention.

Charlie, am I right is guessing that this incident occurred quite a few years ago? REcognition of sex toys has become pretty widespread in the general society recently. And the term "massager" has sort of gone out of use, I think. Less need for euphemisms.

Kitten,
You are watching the screener as he x-rays your bag. You see that there is something in the bag that catches his eye. He looks up at you, appraising you. Just a hint of lechery in his smile.

And who voted for the fourth option? Was that for real, or someone being funny?
Mike

 

[zammius]

oh they can see it

let's just say that when they xrayed my carryon and saw the chocolate handcuffs and chocolate cock....they had some fun goin thru my bag....

 

[rimmy]

I did a little security work post 9-11 and the 1 thing I can recommend for sure is this:

if you bring a vibe on the plane, TAKE OUT THE BATTERIES so it won't start humming and you can avoid the potential embarrassment unless you are Kitten and then you can put it on high before you get checked.

 

[MrMikelobe1952]

zammius - I would love to read a more descriptive account of this experience.

rim - that sounds like sound advice.
