I'm sure many a US Senator met their boyfriends while toe tapping in various filthy bathrooms. Oh the romance of it all! Not.

I've been around the block more than once and I've found Democrats far surpass Republicans when it comes to kink.

There was a raid of a roadside rest area south of here. Seems the boys would tap their brakes lights to attract each other.

I took this latest republiscum scandal a little harder than you. I'm fed up.
Thanks for making me laugh ;-)

Totally gross. And, yes, I've known about the toe-tapping, foot-touching stuff since I was 17; read an expose on glory holes in the Flambea, FSU's student paper when I was doing a geeky/nerdy summer science thing there. Made me not want to use a public restroom for the rest of my life.

I was totally down with the toe-tapping thing back in college. Really.

Yep, you "Tap foot for BJ" as many bathroom scrawlings say on I-90 or I-95.

Wow! I actually learned something useful from a Rebublican! Imagine that.

Your affected naivete, like everything about you, is charming, TJ, but everybody knows the toe tapping mating call. There are only two reasons why anyone would tap his toes next to someone else's foot in a lavatory stall: a) he wants to give the guy next door a blow job, or b) he forgot to remove his iPod earbuds, and he's got rhythm. Either way, if the guy combines the toe tap with a finger under the partition, he pretty much deserves to look up and find a cock in his face. And perhaps a citation. I don't think cruising in toilets, per se, should be criminal, but a small fine is appropriate for being too stupid to use the Internet.

I know that freshmen representatives and senators get some sort of orientation when they arrive on Capitol Hill, and I'm pretty sure that from now on, new Republicans (assuming any get elected) will be getting a course in online cruising. I reckon they'll call it something else, however.

I share your reticence with respect to public sex. I will, however, admit that when I visit a particularly nice public restroom (in, say, a decent restaurant), I always calculate how many people could have sex in it at the same time. In some establishments, the number is quite large.

Dan and I were in Chicago last October and there was this guy at the O'Hare airport and he was at the urinal wagging his bags and everyone was so far away from him. Funny enough, he ended up being about three rows away from us on the plane to LaGaurdia.

Just when I thought I was getting over my pee-shyness, this story is all over the news. Like it doesn't take enough time to concentrate on getting things going without some icky troll leering. Now I certainly won't use a stall without a taser.

I also was a toe tapper in college. Mainly cuz I wasn't gettin any anywhere else. (If I'd only known then what I know now about several of my fraternity brothers..I'd have done much better.) But for a grown person with other options and plentiful internet access I think cruising tearooms is a little on the pathetic side. Ah well each to his own.

I'm so out of the loop on this one. Okay, so you're horny and you tap your foot, but what happens if Larry Craig or Bob Allen are the men who show up in your stall? Is there a way to retract your tap? Seriously, wouldn't that cause sudden impotence and dry heaves?

I agree with copperred. This will affect my pee-shyness too. Although next time I use a public restroom, and it gets really quiet in there, I'm gonna tap my foot like crazy, to make everyone feel comfortable, of course.

Classic headline. Love it! Great post by the way!

Yeah, I've heard of the tap thing. But you aren't supposed to tap the other guy's foot for christ's sake!

And I hear George and Laura play a little game they like to call "Oval Orifice". It involves a glory hole cut through the portrait of Lincoln...

E. coli comes from cow shit not human shit.

I knew about this back in Middle School! I was f'ing around the mall and went to the Sears bathroom and while sitting on the throne innocently tapping my foot a note came under the stall "Want a BJ" well I was 14 (1984) and horny (and no internet) so I went for it... Skip to 4 years later and an after several attempts to "stop" this strange behavior I was again in the mall again and stopped by my old haunt to see if I could get a quickie when lo and behold I was in the middle of a undercover sting operation! The watched me go in and somone else, closed off the bathroom, got on the floor and watched while the guy in the stall next to me gave me head. I blew my load and no more than two seconds later I was handcuffed and hauled off to jail for "Sodomy". Funny thig is that in VA that was a felony back in 1988! Thankfully it's expunged and I can laugh about it but seriously in 1984 it was hard to get blown - but now hell...
