Ma'am, Could You Explain This?

Chastity Belt Sets Off Airport Security Alarms

When you're an airport security inspector, we imagine you see a lot of things that, well, illuminate the human condition. Such was the case in Athens when a 40-year old British woman set off a metal detector's alarm. After a rather lengthy and certainly personal body search, security staffers found the cause -- the woman was wearing a chastity belt, officials said on Friday.

"It happened a few days before Christmas. The metal detector went off and after a further check we found out she was wearing a chastity belt," airport police official Dimitris Tzouvaras told AFP, confirming a report in the daily newspaper To Vima.

"The woman was allowed to fly on to London on the pilot's responsibility," Tzouvaras added. (Now, that's chivalry!)

According to media reports, the woman told police officers her husband had forced her to put on the belt to make sure she had no extra-marital affair during a brief visit to Greece.

Tzouvaras didn't have anything to say about that.
