TSA Screeners Leave Awkward Note
According to blogger Jill Flipovic, a strange and unsavory incident occurred on her last jaunt through security at the airport. No, she wasn’t felt up or forced to strip down, but her belongings basically were… and when a TSA agent came across her “Silver Bullet,” a vibrator from Babeland sex toy company, they seemed to get quite a kick out it – enough that they scrawled her a note about it.
“Get your freak on girl” was written on the slip of paper that TSA agents must leave in your luggage if it has been looked through, and Flipovic was, well, understandably alarmed. As she wrote for the blog Feministe, “Total violation of privacy, wildly inappropriate and clearly not ok, but I also just died laughing in my hotel room.” She seemed not to be as tickled by the idea of a TSA agent handling her battery-powered friend, though, because she claims she threw away the vibrator when she considered that it might have been touched by one of the many creepers that work for airport security.
So not only are TSA agents letting guns get through security, inappropriately touching children, and drenching old men in their own urine, but they’re also getting all up in our sexy business? FOR SHAME, TSA. You are just one notch below meter maids on the “Biggest Abusers of their Stunning Lack of Power” scale.
What do you think? Would you be upset if this scenario happened to you?
