Busted!

posted by on October 30 at 8:38 AM

What’s the matter with heterosexuals anyway? Don’t they have apartments? Can’t those people just get a room? I mean, why would anyone have sex in a public toilet? Disgusting!

Seattle police arrested a couple at Cal Anderson Park Sunday afternoon after a mother and young child accidentally discovered them having sex in the park bathroom.

According to police reports, a mother was inside the bathroom with her child at about 3:30 p.m. when she saw that a man and woman were having sex in the neighboring stall. She contacted two bicycle officers patrolling the park, who entered the bathroom to find the couple still engaged sexually….

The man, 36, and woman, 32, were both booked into King County Jail on suspicion of indecent exposure, according to reports. They were also banned from city parks.

Clearly, bathrooms are sexy.

The only bathroom I ever wanted to have sex in was in a Montreal museum. It was really clean, and unusually, had doors from ceiling to floor. It was practically built for sex.

Straight people are perverts. I can't believe we allow them to have kids. And marry!

What's next? Doggies fucking on the front lawn?

Clearly we should lobby for an ordinance that requires ceiling to floor doors and walls in all public restrooms. The hetrosexuals think that since they have marriage that that gives them license. Although I continue to support equal rights for hetrosexuals this kind of incident gives mee the creeps.

You need to understand, Dan - these are predominantly gay-identified people doing this. They're deeply closeted straights.

And I bet the police find out that they hooked up on Craigslist.

I think the real problem here is that there were straight people having sex in a bathroom clearly designated for use by junkies only. If they wanted to have straight sex they should have headed over to Seattle Central and had sex in the ground-floor women's bathroom, which is a designated straight-sex bathroom.

As an aside, one of my favorite little quirks of Volunteer Park are the half-inch-thick annealed aluminum plates that have been bolted and then welded onto the toilet stall in the men's bathroom near the wading pool to block the irrepressible glory hole that kept reappearing there. Something about the idea that it requires tank armor to stop a man from sticking his dick through a hole in a bathroom stall just fills me with admiration for the determination of the human spirit.

I will make it a point to have frequent hetero sex in the arboretum to show solidarity with my gay brethren!

@8: they probably WERE junkies or meth users.

If there ages hadn't been included, I would have asked if it was Josh & Erica.

HA HA! Nasty, dirty, straight people!

Okay, I know this is a technicality, but how do you charge them with "exposure", when they were inside both a structure, and an enclosed space within the structure? Unless mommy stuck her head under the stall door to witness the two en flagrante it wasn't like she would have actually SEEN anything untoward.

What she HEARD, however, may have been a different matter entirely.

LMAO @ Judah's comment about the GH!

Hey, I've done this. . . IMO, the only thing they did wrong was to not beat feet once they were discovered.

See, I told you we heteros loved doing it in women's bathrooms.

But did you believe me? No.

It's always good to lock or bar the door.

AND, they were barred from the park.

And how is that to be enforced? This is in the new kick the fag zone on C. Hill - I think the police should say take it elsewhere and work on crime.

I will bet you they were not newly minted rich white hipsters - wanna bet?

banned from city parks? that seems a bit excessive.

oh, and @2, having had sex in Montreal, including (going by memory here) at least three wonderful bathrooms, I'm going to say it's a straight man and woman's paradise for bathroom sex.

I presume it's not bad for non-heteros as well.

I agree w/ #8. Clearly they should have been having sex in a bathroom at the Public Library. That's where we find them all the time... literate, hetero, and horny. Okay - just drunk off their asses.....

The only people I ever find in the toilets at the main library are homeless dudes camping in the stalls for hours on end. All of them. Seriously, if you ever have to leave a shit in the library, you'll have to leave the building.

kkl327 - You won't see that couple again as there is only one hetero couple that does this and they are now banned from the parks...!

In seriousness I think heteros do it in public but people usually don't report it. Not like if it's same sex. People feel much more threatened by two males going at it or are shocked by it. Whatev.

@21

I actually meant Seattle Central Community College. Frankly you couldn't pay me enough to piss in the bathroom at the downtown library, let alone have sex in there.

Booked into jail.
What a wonderful use of supposedly scarce police resources.
Too bad they weren't stealing cars, they could do 5 of those before being jailed.

No money for a gang unit.

We've got cops doing hall monitor duty.

@25 good point... give them a ticket and let them on their way.

This isn't so newsworthy. These trysts could be recorded on any given day at number of parks and posted on a Youtube like site. Once you get a scandalous video it becomes bigger news.

Judah.. I got your drift about Seattle Central... just saying they are having sex in the public library bathrooms too. I don't know about the central library, but in the branches.... maybe branch libraries are more "homey"....more cozy... or less likely to have security there to bust them.....
