I completely agree about the civil liberties issue, but the way to object to that is by writing to your MP, not by causing inconvenience to other passengers and engaging staff in your kink - that's all. If its not detected, then it doesn't matter either way.

Makes you wonder what they do when they have a suspected drugs mule in one of these things, it'd make a cavity search ... difficult. Do they keep bolt cutters out for just such occasions? | |||

Having thought about security at airports and the cunning of the bombers would not the best solution be that everybody had to fly naked? But would they still allow the chastity device and would the wearer be proud to display their status The source of all unhappiness is other people | |||

As our slave forgot to put the link in to the weblog he wrote on this subject, i shall do it for him to save you all having to plough through all his others http://www.informedconsent.co.uk/posts/48040/ it may help people to know that it really doesnt matter, they are going to see a lot more over the years. it doesnt hold up the plane or cause delays for other passengers as everyone has to go through this process, hence, when you get the other side of the search you still have a 2 to 3 hour wait before boarding the plane, this is to allow for anomolies such as this. Planes book a 'window' for take off, they have to take that time so anyone who causes a problem will be held back by security. Airlines have more problems with drunks than with some person with a kink who wears a chastity device in his 24/7 NONE FANTASY real life. I suspect that some note will have been made by the security on the day that bruce went through as to what you may find surrounding the nether regions. please note that bruce's weblog was written back in august 2005, nearly 4 and half years ago so i should imagine that in that time they have seen more than just bruce's plastic one but the steel ones as well. This is not a new gadget, it has been around for some time for testing. morgan_MP

I imagine they have tools for every eventuality, like the firemen who recently had to cut a male member out of a piece of steel pipe that had miraculously attached itself and couldn't otherwise be shifted..... | |||

But where is the inconvenience to anyone? If they want to check you out and ask further questions you'll be taken to a private room and the remaining the staff will to continue to deal with the rest of the queue. They won't suspend all operations until they've finished questioning someone. And given that for long haul flights you need to check in at least 2hrs beforehand you're unlikely to be delaying take off. --- Ha! | |||

There are never queues at security, the extra personnel, space, and equipment costs don't wind up being added to the bill, and the x-ray operators never slow down the conveyor belt when they can't immediately see what's going on.... Never had to wait for a bag search because all the bag searchers are searching bags?

The goverments are using the threat of terroists to slowly take more of our free will and right away and turn us into a nanny state... this is just another example. "THE GOVERMENT SHOULD BE AFFRAID OF ITS POEPLE, People should not be affraid of their goverment" - V for Vendetta | |||

Not that I disagree with the sentiment but can anybody explain to me why the government when it is clearly so democratic and reflective of the peolpes' wishes wants to take away the free will The source of all unhappiness is other people | |||
