On Instagram McKenna shared the clip, captioned “THIS HEALED ME”. Comments under the clip were united in sharing love for “queer joy”.
“I love queer joy,” one person wrote. Another person commented, “this is so wholesome”.
“Most romantic thing I’ve ever seen wtf,” a comment with more than 200 likes read.
“A literal ‘I love you more’ battle omg,” a different user commented.
Less positively, trans TikToker McKenna took to the platform in January to recall a terrifying experience with the Transportation Security Administration at the airport, which saw him allegedly getting bombarded by TSA agents for wearing a binder.
Once McKenna reached the scanner, it flagged an “abnormality on my chest… which is why they followed it up with a pat-down.” The agent’s hands allegedly went straight onto his chest, when “his face drops, and he gets angry”.
“He goes, ‘what the f**k is this?’,” McKenna alleged. “I didn’t have top surgery at this point, I did have a binder on… I don’t have drugs. Unfortunately, I did have t*ts!
“I don’t even have a chance to say anything, within seconds men [come] from every angle. They take me, they put me in a little room,” he claimed. “These men are yelling at me to take my clothes off. I’m in my boxer briefs, I’m in my binder, I thought that would be enough!”
“Is there no LGBT cultural competency training at the airport?”, McKenna asked. “They have no idea. They think the binder is what’s holding in the contraband.”
