Not as effectively as you can with a nipple ring, though:

Of course, the greatest fear of our Official Protectors is the chance
that someone in charge of setting policy may, at some point, develop
an IQ greater than room temperature.
"TSA spokesman Dwayne Baird was unaware of the alleged incident but
said there was no specific TSA policy on dealing with body piercings
"as long as it doesn't sound the alarms."
If an alarm does sound, "until that is resolved, we're not going to
let them go through the checkpoint, no matter what they're wearing or
where they're wearing it."
Thanks for the clarification Duh-wayne; the presence or absence of
Weapons of Mammary Destruction isn't the issue, only the question of
whether they set off the alarms is.
Evildoer: "Why yes, I AM carrying 15kg of plastic explosive... but it
didn't set off the alarm!"
Security ape: "Ugh. OK then, you go through."
