Violet Blue, Special to SF Gate

Metal detectors pick up piercings in private areas, and their owners are subjected to extended searches. And if your gender does not appear to match the gender identity on your driver's license or passport, you may be in for a long delay -- or worse. The simple answer to these problems would be to travel sans sex toys or to change how you dress or appear for travel. But what if you're going on a long trip, having a wild weekend or can't (or don't want to) change who you really are?

I agree, I simply check everything on, not as embarassing a you will never actually see the person who goes thru your luggage face to face (gets checked in some other area after it is wisked away from you). Walked thru with it once big mistake will never do that again!

Looks like I will be leaving behind my harness and Jeff Stryker 10 inch when I travel to Thailand then.

Quote from: LostInTime on June 14, 2007, 12:29:43 PMThat's one of the reasons I had to get my name changed. I am not able to make myself look male anymore. (As if I'd want to...) My tickets always said, "Robert." I was stopped at every security check.

I've got a converted gun holster for my 2 vibrators... Can't use them yet, its just to impress... Who knows who. :D
Not sure what the TSA would think if they'd see that....
(I'm just joking.... though the idea of it sounds kinda cool, and the idea of freeking the TSA even cooler).

I really hope that this policy/regulation/law/whatever doesn't apply to dilators as well.

ROFL.
I meant pack them in the checked luggage not carry on. (Especially as since some of the larger stents could be considered weapons). And yes I'm using stents and vibrators interchangeably on purpose heehee.
Tink just toss them in as checked luggage.
That would sort of depend on where one packs them Thundra, heehee.
