Page 11 | Is it disrespectful/problematic to take a sex toy in hand luggage to Marrakech?

sleepitoff · 2025-01-09T11:26:11+00:00

We are going to Marrakech for a holiday in a few weeks and I would like to take my vibrator. I’m likely to take just cabin bags. Will I encounter issues either going through or leaving the airport? I know it’s not illegal but I don’t want issues - or to appear disrespectful. No judgments please, advice only.

You'll have to taje tge batteries out or it will have to go in "the tray" at the airport

Magnastorm · 09/01/2025 12:02

It'll be fine, the security people would have seen everything by this point so they won't bat an eyelid.

I'd maybe think about taking something that is not obviously a huge dildo but that is entirely down to whether you care about the person manning the xray machine seeing it on their screen or not. Probably worth taking the batteries out as well.

That’s true, I hadn’t thought of that.

Good luck finding a shop that sells vibrators in Marrakech😂

Please help me understand though OP, why can’t you just focus on the holiday for a few days? Or check in a bag if it’s that important to you 🤣

at a guess i think some people have a very high drive and need a daily release

devilspawn · 09/01/2025 12:00

I'd be paranoid it would go off and just start buzzing, my electric toothbrush did that once and I'm sure people assumed it was something else.

Kenway01 · 09/01/2025 11:59

if you want to get around the perspective that is a massarger, then id recommend upgrading to the one they call magic wand vibrator

can you not survive with your hand for a few days?

Quite!

SnowflakeSmasher86 · 09/01/2025 11:59

Obviously women have sex/masrurbate in other countries too, so it’s not necessarily disrespectful to take it/use it, but I wouldn’t want to come face to face with the security guy scanning it so for that reason I wouldn’t take it in hand luggage.

Ok, thanks all. I’ll have a think about what I’m going to do.

Kenway01 · 09/01/2025 11:57

the other option is buy a vib when your there ?

SnowflakeSmasher86 · 09/01/2025 11:57

Is this a family holiday? I can’t imagine much more embarrassing than being at the airport and having them whip out my mums sex toy from her luggage! Honestly even if it was the only way I could orgasm I’d go without it if I wasn’t taking hold luggage.

Peaceandquietandacuppa · 09/01/2025 11:56

If you’re taking cabin bags it’s just weird. They will likely have to pull your bag out, search it, pull out the item etc. it does seem disrespectful to me.

Either check in a bag or go without for a few days. There’s so much to do in Marrakech anyway why will you need it???

Unnecessary comment

Face it OP, it's what we were all thinking.

bigkidatheart · 09/01/2025 11:54

Make sure you clean it at the other end, you don't know where their hands have been lol

Not unless you consider a small purple, vaguely shaped penis a threat

I didn’t read it that way, just as a question about whether there wasn’t an easier way as a short term holiday solution.

And I never suggested you should be embarrassed — you’re the one who said you didn’t ‘want issues’ in your OP. Given that you know it’s not illegal, it’s not clear what other issues you might be concerned about if not airport employees removing and checking your vibrator whether at your home or destination airport, which would certainly cause embarrassment to some people.

Most people. Who wants their used sex toy on view in a busy security queue. The op seems ok with it though. She’s just sensitive to people on line.not in real life.

Why on earth would it be disrespectful?

I think the comment about using my hand is judgemental about using a vibrator.

I don’t think it would be an issue. I would die of cringe though but if you wouldn’t crack on (or crack one out)

RobertaFirmino · 09/01/2025 11:40

I'm not sure it is fair on the security staff to put them in a position where they have to handle a used sex toy.

If there's sex shops there as a PP already said, why dont you just wait and get another one there? Avoid any kind of 'problem' that way

That’s true, I hadn’t thought of that.

You’re clearly very sensitive, so it is utterly bemusing you want risk this level of embarassment.
