Another airport, same med, same script, same seal: got me a public pat down in front of everyone in the security line. No offer of privacy, crotch and breasts included. Embarrassing, even if it was a TSA butch dyke doing the body check.

Third airport-TSA was happy it was unsealed this time. Checked it to make sure not explosives, no problem.

Three airports. Three different rules/treatments. Consistency would be nice.
Different treatment this past week, continued:

Flew out of Long Beach, told them about liquid med-TSA did the explosives test.

Flew out of Oakland, told them about liquid med, TSA did not even take it out of the baggie. Checked the label against my boarding pass and waved me through.

Consistency would still be nice.
