BTW these things also scan the genital area. If an unoperated trans woman passes through, it flags her for having a hidden weapon in her crotch. This has been a source of forced outings, public humiliation and in some cases outright sexual harassment by flight security staff ever since these machines where introduced at airports, i find the idea that somebody could be forced to endure that before every subway ride absolutely nightmarish.
Yeah I was gonna make the trashfuture joke about it being a t-slur detector but honestly its not even funny, this is horrible
btw a common way to confirm the victim’s claim that the alarm was set off by girldick and not by a firearm is to do a patdown in the crotch area, with the gender of the person doing the patdown depending on the airport’s levels of transphobia.
How would a metal detector sense the shape of your flesh? And how would it know your legal gender?
I’m curious what Chinese subways look like in the poorest cities. Hell, I wonder what it looks like in Xinjiang since they had terror attacks in the past and everyone in the west is claiming it’s 1984 Holocaust 2 over there now
My aunt went to 乌鲁木齐 last year and said it’s a regular metal detector, and you put luggage or large bags through a scanner like a pre-9/11 airport or a regular US high school. In Wuhan where I’ve been the most, your bags go through a scanner that’s either automated or just manned by someone not paying attention.
This guy gets a pretty good shot of what they look like in xinjiang, pretty good video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dHxzLogzqkU
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Used to be that you can flick a dime at a man operating a booth in a suit to get on a locomotive. Not anymore. The LIBERALS want you to get a full cavity search before boarding the subway or streetcar. Gone are the days of street urchins smoking cigars hitching a ride on the back of a trolley as it winds through a city street. Because of woke.
But there’s no money for housing.
the subway: we need to stop fare evasion otherwise we’ll run out of money and die
also the subway: this shit
