What, praytell, is "tearoom sex?"

pjbacfl -- It's a term I picked up I think when I read Joe Orton's biography -- but that's as far as I'll go.

I saw this live on MSNBC last night.

I laughed along with Abrams and Scarborough.

The thought of a high-school aged Tucker Carlson returning to a public bathroom to give some pervert his comeuppance is patently absurd. No chance it actually happened.

I mean, look at the guy. He's badass! He must have been a KILLER in high school. Ha!

tucker should get a clue - how would he feel if women started beating up on all the straight guys who ever made an unwelcome pass?

and it sure didn't sound like tucker was assaulted... if he was he could have sworn out a complaint.

but the thing that really bothers me, is that while i could forgive a highschool kid reacting badly (given the homophobic culture we have been living in), i can not forgive tucker laughing about his experience of revenge violence now.

i'd like to see tucker fired and whoever else was laughing (it soundn't like tucker had company) have to make a sincere and abject apology to keep their job.

tucker is just sick, sick, sick.

The Bush government is intent on attacking Iran, maybe with nukes, America is bein ruthlessly redefined, and reengineered from within, Iraq is a catastophic bloody, costly, nightmare, Afghanistan is a forgotten failure wherein our real enemies safely entrenched in their redoubts across the borders in the Peshawar are reconstituting, and planniing, training for, financing, and commanding and controlling the sequel to 9/11 - the world is on fire, - and you are focusing on Tucker Carlson?

Moveon please!!!!

"Is there no balm in Gilead?"

After hearing all this, I'll never let the male children in my life go into a restroom alone. I am a supporter of gay rights, but when men make untoward advances on other men, well, they should get their heads slammed.

I just remember that line from the movie"Airplane" which was, "Ever seen a grown man naked?"

Consenting adults are fine, children are a big old NO.

sounds like paranoid more then disgusted..

Grabbing a kid in a bathroom? That's completely out of line. It's scary and disgusting. How many people would applaud if young, smart, assertive woman was grabbed by a creepy older man and the woman was able to restrain him by hitting his head against a stall? Plenty. She would be a hero. This isn't a gay issue, this is a sexual assault in a bathroom issue. Although I do not care for Mr. Carlson or his views, it is a good thing he was able to hand that predator over to the police and completely fine to be proud of himself and even laugh about it now.

Well, just look....how some of the media has already devolved the whole Craig story into a "what gays do thing"...instead of the real point about Craig and his hypocritical life in politics.

So now the sheeple have gone from criticism of a lying, deceiving, two faced politican to panic about sexual bathroom advances.

Trust the pundits like Tucker to take the lowest possible road...no doubt it helps their ratings....some of the public being what they are.

Damnit, everytime I go into a public bathroom, all I get is bad graffiti and crabs.

One word: overcompensation.
