Experts: For many gays, public sex means privacy
Seattle Times ^ | August 30 07 | Idaho Stateman

Many men who solicit sex in public places often are conflicted sexually and seek sex in those locations to maintain anonymity, psychiatric experts say.

Dr. Fred Berlin, an associate professor of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins Medical School in Baltimore, compared homosexual sex at public places with heterosexual men who go to secret parts of town to solicit prostitutes and to drug addicts who find dealers on street corners away from their neighborhoods.

"This is not as complicated as people think," Berlin said. "It is often a case of people with very strong sexual cravings that are difficult to resist, people who are very conflicted and struggling" with their feelings and the stigma of embarrassment of having family members or the community find out.

"I call B.S. Bathroom sex is part of the gay lifestyle."

Actually, according to the few gays I know, out in the open gays think the bathroom thing is disgusting. They see it as a complete lack of self-respect.

FWIW.

I had to spoil things but not every person in a dress with makeup on is a woman.

Now there's something I didn't want to think about.

I looked under a stall in a biker bar & saw two feet going the wrong way. I stood there waiting for my turn & the ugliest looking woman/man came out. He/she was dressed in a long skirt and a sweater. I asked it why IT didn’t go to the men’s room as IT had the nerve to dress as a woman..IT replied they will beat me up if I go in there with a whiny voice. I said IT was in the wrong bar. Well later on that night IT tried to get friendly with one of those bikers. Needless to say it didn’t end up to be a good experience for IT... At the time I didn’t feel badly & I don’t now. If you want to be dressing up like a woman then be prepared for the lady's to get mad at if you use their rest room & for the men to get mad if you come on to them.

You were right to be angry. He had no business in the ladies’ room. That’s funny that a man dressed as a woman went to a biker bar to pick up a guy. That’s just asking for trouble... lol.
