Airport Security (OC)

I got flagged for a random TSA pat down once and the agent asked me if I had any metal in my body. I replied “I have an IUD”. The agent freaks out and starts flagging other agents over. She musters all her calm and says “Please repeat that you have an IED on you” to which I had to say “no, an IUD, a copper intrauterine device, for birth control”. She didn’t know what an IUD was and I had to explain it to her. I bet she’ll remember now!

She didn’t know what an IUD was

Just...how?

[u/Zibai1505 → u/Sufficient_Cod1948]

What? Easily bro

You think everyone knows what an IUD is? 

[u/burncult → u/Zibai1505]

it is a shame when women do not know about basic, common birth control. why are you confused?? honestly it’s a shame that things like this aren’t taught more throughly to everyone

[u/SkabbPirate → u/burncult]

A shame, yes, surprising? No

[u/Sufficient_Cod1948 → u/Zibai1505]

I think a woman should know about the basics when it comes to birth control methods.

You should be embarrassed if you don’t, tbqh.
