Place your batteries in a plastic bag and store them separately.</p>
<p><img src="http://abcnews.go.com/images/site/img_bu…" alt="" /><strong>Choose Products With a Lock Feature:</strong> If you're traveling with a rechargeable vibrating toy, or one with a battery can't be removed, check if it has a lock feature. This will prevent it from turning on, even if its buttons are accidentally pressed. </p>
<p><img src="http://abcnews.go.com/images/site/img_bu…" alt="" /><strong>Pack Small/Discreetly Designed Products: </strong> Small toys are perfect for travel, as they can be stashed just about anywhere and are less likely to draw attention. Alternatively, a larger vibrator with a simple, understated design (e.g. no zebra stripes or glittery rabbit ears) can be an ideal option.</p>
<p><img src="http://abcnews.go.com/images/site/img_bu…" alt="" /><strong>Pack It Between Other Items: </strong> Rather than let a sex toy roam freely in your carry-on or luggage, pack it in a carrying case or plastic bag and place it between layers of clothing. Should your bag get searched, this will buy you time to quietly explain that you're carrying a sex accessory and ask that your bag be searched in private.</p>
<p><img src="http://abcnews.go.com/images/site/img_bu…" alt="" /><strong>If Questioned, Answer Honestly: </strong> While it may be tempting to insist your sex toy is really a pencil case/chew toy/marching band baton, lying could land you in hot water. Keep it brief when answering all questions and use straightforward, clinical terms. And relax -- security personnel have seen it all and have been trained to be sensitive in these matters. Once they realize what that curious little gadget is, they'll most likely send you on your merry way.</p>
