The article mentioned that Senator Craig positioned his luggage at the stall door in an attempt to conceal the intended activity. In San Francisco, gay men take two shopping bags into the stall. They both stand in the bags, so no one can see that the two of them are “engaged.”
Devil's Advocate time again ... would you leave your luggage outside the stall or bring it in with you? The latter of course, lest someone spot it and either steal it or have the bomb squad blow it up as unattended luggage. Next, now it is in the stall with you ... where would you put it? Cramped in between the side wall and your leg, down near the bowl where the floor is probably wet, or as far away from you as possible where you have the most leg room and the floor is probably less soiled? And where it is most obvious to those outside that the stall is occupied?
Placing luggage in front of the door may well be where people put it to block the view of their perverted activities ... but it is where everybody else likely places it too.
Strange to be pointing this all out on the day of Richard Jewell's death.
As a straight guy, who avoids public restrooms as much as possible, I can tell you that I have only once or twice entered a stall in an airport with luggage, but that once inside the only place to put it is next to the door.
Those stalls are not as roomy as the king's castle, and there just isn't any other place for luggage unless you want to put it on your lap.
[They both stand in the bags, so no one can see that the two of them are engaged.]
It sure is odd that they go to such lengths to cover up their activities when they are so full of “pride”.
Pride and arrogance...

You don’t say! In Kentucky two shopping bags are considered matching luggage, and very cosmopolitan.
