    Yeah, and also tied people up. It’s fun, can recommend.

    Oh, and don’t fly with handcuffs in your checked luggage if your layover is in Dubai, they’ll hold up the whole plane to remove those.

        Bondage is ‘sexual deviancy’? Did you have to admit to religious fundamentalism?

          Did you miss the part where OP said this was in Dubai? I don’t think the commenter you’re replying to carries that view.

          In Saudi Arabia, for example, it is illegal to carry sex toys or alcohol even when transiting.

        Nah, I got a chill airport worker to drive me around for a while, then we went into a small room underground, where a scary dude in a suit who didn’t speak English came in (airport worker was translating). I had to open my luggage, take the handcuffs out, give them to suit-guy, and close the bag again, then the nice dude drove me back. Note that they did not care about any of the actual sex toys in the luggage.

      As a (very dumb) teenager, I went through security at Logan in March 2002 with a pair of handcuffs in my jacket.

      The women who saw it on x-ray dug them out of my jacket pocket and sort of flamboyantly asked “What’chu need theeeese for?!”
      I gave her a shit-eating grin and responded with the same energy that I was visiting my girlfriend.
      After a beat, she said “Well alright. Go get your freak on! But put ‘em in your bag next time!”

      The truth was that I had actually forgotten they were in that jacket. They just lived in that one pocket my senior year of HS because I was an edgy teenager. I was actually returning from visiting her. We didn’t even use them, and they didn’t get flagged on my departing flight.

      I’m glad it was before the DHS militarized the TSA. I do not know how my idiotic teenage self would have dealt with a non-playful encounter.

    and tickled. Fun enough to show up twice but broke almost instantly 2nd time round… Not swearing off forever but they’d need a shitload of charisma.

        It seemed easiest for him I guess. People didn’t always get along (they still don’t) and hostaging me at their place was a way to increase his bluff.

            Is a meme going over my head or are people confused about something? It’s not really something I look forward to talking about, it just happened. Someone thought it wouldn’t be uncool to kidnap, what would people like to know?

                Yes, he got arrested. I really just got caught in some wrong crossfire. Nothing black-market-esque involved.

                  Brother that is a wild fucking story. Write that shit down and turn it into a Netflix true crime mini-series.

    Yes, once as part of an BDSM session. A guy I really fancied was into BDSM, so I thought give it a try, see if I like it. Turns out I didnt and dont. At . All. As it happens, I intensely dislike being bound or restrained in any way. I also cant stand pain, and in addition I am incapable of inflicting pain on others. Oh, and I’m allergic to leather.

    After our attempted BDSM session had inevitably turned to farce, he commented to me over a cup of tea afterwards that I was the most uniquely unsuited person to BDSM practices that he’d ever encountered… never a truer word spoke.

    Yea when I was a kid we would play hide and seek and the hiders would tie up the seeker before they went to hide and the seeker could start looking for them as soon as they escaped. I was always really fast because I would flex my muscles while they were tying me up and then as soon as they took off I could make myself smaller then that and it was easy to wiggle out. I think I had read that in a Batman comic.
