So yesterday I flew with my Stephanie stuff in my carry-on. I wasn't dressed (was actually in a suit, but sans tie), but I'm hoping to get out tonight. I'm TSA-Pre, and I've learned that it's best if I pull my breast forms out of my bag and send them through the x-ray scanner separately, sometimes, even telling the agent, "these are going to alarm." This has most often led recently to a knowing look, maybe a quick peak in the box, and then they let them slide right on through.

Still, there are times when they do get pulled off the line and manually checked. Fine - I've come to accept that and don't let it bother me. Yesterday, was one of those days. No worries. The female agent did her thing, swabbed the box and inspected it, and then closed the box and handed them back to me. Then looked at me and said, "Have a good day, Ma'am."

That was a first - being Ma'amed in full male mode. I had to stop and think, did I hear that right? It was pretty cool. Thought I'd share.
