Someone explain this to me, as I am helplessly heterosexual. What is the attraction of drive-by casual sex in public places with complete strangers? What gives with the almost daily news of large groups of men getting arrested for having sex in public places? Private clubs and bath houses are one thing, but public restrooms and out in the open in public?
It seems daily I am seeing news like
this and
this. This isn't just a few random weirdos acting badly. This is community leaders, police officers, teachers etc.
What's even shocking is before I made this post i did a quick web search trying to find article links, what I found was website after website promoting public encounters and bitterly defending it!
I'm sorry but what people do behind closed doors is one thing, but this is pretty messed up. As a matter of fact it is becoming an epidemic locally. Even a hetro friend of mine was approached by a guy in a grocery store(!).
What gives :-? For years and years the gay community has been battling the image that homosexuality is perverse and disease prone due to loose values and promiscuity. :-?
