Flying Pasties Protect Passengers’ Privacy
Concerned about scanners at the airport seeing too much? Scanners planned for 11 airports in the US over the next two years beam electromagnetic waves on passengers and produce naked images when scanning for explosives. One man from Las Vegas claims that he’s found a solution to the new full body scanners being introduced: flying pasties. You stick these bad boys over your unmentionables to hide your privates when going through the X-ray machines.
Drawbacks? Well some believe that the 2mm-thick, rubber stick-on pads may attract even more unwanted attention since airport security noted that ”anything that inhibits advanced imaging will require additional screening“. However, the inventor says that his customers can simply remove the pads when asked by airport officials. Furthermore, he pointed out that the pads can be attached underneath shirts and pants for easy removal. The pasties go for $16.99 each and feature such catch phrases as, “Only my husband sees me naked“.
A dancer who goes by the stage-name Cherry Dazzle, has had trouble with Facebook in the past over questionable pics.
She received warnings about a photo of herself backflipping out of the vagina of a giant female statue. Another incident involved an image of her breasts covered in flame-shaped pasties. But it wasn’t until the dancer got pregnant that Facebook finally canceled her account.
The termination occurred after the woman uploaded this photo of her pregnant body, wearing only a thong, gold pasties and glitter, as her profile picture.
She wasn’t even really naked, but that didn’t matter to the site’s administrators, who have yanked photos of other breast-feeding mothers from profile pages in the past.
The woman wants to know why Facebook hates the pregnant female form and states, “I think people are terrified of the vagina or something.” Word. (Bet if it was a man’s pregnant body it wouldn’t have been an issue; sexists.)
