The latest from NBC LA.
This wasn't the one I was really looking for. That story was short and showed a Nude-O-Scope picture of a well endowed man. I mean well endowed. He could be very popular with the TSA ladies.
People are not liking this and now it is on the main stream media. We may yet win this battle.^

I´ve asked that question many times, with no reasonable response from the local TSA folk. Apparently, they pat them down, which of course is invasive and does not determine if they are in fact "just" a feminine pad. Which of course demonstrates how the process is useless...

[QUOTE=pubpad;15120476]What happens if a woman is wearing a feminine pad, and they meet that resistance?[/QUOTE
One of the TSO here as answered me a few weeks ago.
That they are not allowed to check out if any "diapers" is for real or not.
I would think that would include any feminine pad.
That brings back the question again. If TSA is so afraid of people hiding things in their privates. How do they then know if it is for real or not if they dont find out?
Somehow that doesnt make kind of sense at all what they are saying.
Somethings are not adding up.
But then again nothing they do make any kind of sense.

A double layer of Depends could get uncomfortable - unless the idea is the get them all excited that they have caught their terrorist. I'm thinking of heavy duty Depends and a heavy duty pad.

, I've got a pair of Pearl Izumis that are pretty thick.Push-up/enhancer pads in your bra(s). Couple of tank/cami's on top.
Skirt or pants with a built in drawstring, tied very tight, to prevent feeling/looking inside.

Thanks for the welcome! Yes, it does seem useless once you think about if someone truly wanted to smuggle something on bad enough, they would hide it inside of their body, where it cannot be detected.

Two pairs of padded bike shorts, with one pair worn backwards, so that it covers your front side. I guess not the gel kind , I've got a pair of Pearl Izumis that are pretty thick.
Push-up/enhancer pads in your bra(s). Couple of tank/cami's on top.
Skirt or pants with a built in drawstring, tied very tight, to prevent feeling/looking inside.
