What do people think? His room was locked, there were no other people involved and the bike did not complain. Please help. I'm not well versed in the law I don't understand how he committed an offence here. I don't use sextoys myself but shouldn't they be in the same category as a bicycle?
I am no legal expert and am quite sure the law has acted in a stupid and crass way with this man. If he appeals I am quite sure he will get his name expunged from the sex register, and probably he will have the probation period cut. If it is as straight forward as the article suggests then his sentence should be quashed.
However, if as a result of his discovery by the cleaners he began to act in a provocative sexual manner toward them in some way this may explain the 'aggravated' part of the charge, the case going to court and in some way the sentence. Without all the details Im not sure I can be any more helpful.
I just wonder where is the sexual freedom.
Ok, i will take my car in the centre of the town and i'll try to make love with my adorable Renault Laguna in some way and we'll see what will happens.
I always wanted to make love with car, not only in car.
Hearda mountain bikes but this is ridiculous!!!
Do not think so little of me as to grant me your tolerance. Allow me your acceptance and understanding of who and what I am with the love, respect and dignity with which I do you.
Here the cleaners would have been arrested not the guy playin with himself.
Freedom of sexual expression in your own home is protected here, I guess it is not there.
Is meant ta b ere long as no 1 gettin hurt or abused within termsa the law.. same in US babes.... so don give me the wonderful land of free bit ere... reckon cleaners, boss, fuzz, Procurator an Sherriff not only ovastepped the mark but unless as Vikki sez ther summat we not been told then ne appeal wud b granted an that lot told wot arseholes they had mada themsels....
An it wos a hostel... cleaners knocked an got no ansa..so 2 clean up they let emselves in wiv ther pass key... that not how it wud work ova ur way Magie?? Don c owt arrestable bout it.. same wud go for a hotel or motel....

OH come on, there has to be more to it that just using the bike? Right?
I mean embarassing maybe, but probation? Was he making too much noise?
What did he do that was against the law?

The article states:
"Stewart had denied the offence, claiming it was caused by a misunderstanding after he had too much to drink."
haha, thats some misunderstanding! What was he drinking?! And can I have some?
Anyway, if a dude wants to fuck a bicycle in the privacy of his own accommodation, then let him, I say. As long as the bicycle was over 16 years old, then its all legal as far as I'm concerned!

What a crock of shit! This man has done nothing wrong. Does this mean now that I can get arrested for using a dildo? Would it have been a problem if he was shagging a blow up doll??

Wow... Frances Elliot straddled atop a VW Golf Estate... my mouth is watering just at the thought...
Tell yer what Frances... if you wear your "thigh-high" boots and some Agent Provocateur lingerie, we can take a few piccies and then use them as a Lesbian recruitment campaign... "Lesbianism Needs You!"

Well there must be more to that then what we are to be believed.
For a start to be put on the sex offenders register must mean some form of deviant behaviour. It might have something to do with an old scotish law.

For thoese who cant be bothered to read it, basically in that forum, it came to light that the man was caught in the act in a public place, so that would make it an luid? sex act.

Oh I dunno... I think most "Lesbians" secretly like men too, they just PRETEND that they don't when there's a man about...So ya... I think Fran would forgive you if you were to "talk the talk, but not walk the walk", so to speak...
Man, I'm such weirdo...
"I used to be influenced by peer pressure, but my friends talked me out of it."
Ah but Skater Boy, that's what we love about you.
Aaaaw!!! Why thanks... how sweet!Ah but Skater Boy, that's what we love about you.
"I used to be influenced by peer pressure, but my friends talked me out of it."
Sorry, but the guy is just weird.
Why, thankyou buddy- I'll take that as a compliment, coming from someone who likes to dress up in medieval attire on a regular basis. I do like to think of myself as a non-conformist, defiantly counter-hegemonic... ah, who am I kiddin'...
I'm just plain ol' weird.

Sweetie, I think he was talking about the guy who was fucking a bike. Maybe not, but then maybe you are a touch paranoid?
Gee, we're talking about your "normalcy" on a thread about a guy fucking a bike. Hmmm...
Mayb not quite so paranoid asya think HE babes... in days gone by..spesh round time me wos 17 or 18...bike wos a description moren 1 guy used bout me.... only eva 1ce... cos me took off me chain an wrapped it round ther eds an rammed me handle bars up ther jacksey!!!!! (metaphorically speakin.. simply means they got a gobful of Fran verbals)Sweetie, I think he was talking about the guy who was fucking a bike. Maybe not, but then maybe you are a touch paranoid?

Oh, good point! I think it was more a case of mistaken context than paranoia, but I'll confess to both.Sweetie, I think he was talking about the guy who was fucking a bike. Maybe not, but then maybe you are a touch paranoid?

Jenn, if thats the case, then there's an awful lot of weird people around who think that they're normal. But I do acknowledge the possibility.
And no, whilst Darkeyes may have been (affectionately) labeled as a bike in her time, I have yet to earn that title.
"I used to be influenced by peer pressure, but my friends talked me out of it."
This does seem as if there should not have been any kind of charges filed in this incident--the guy was in a room and did have some expectation of privacy---those housekeepers should have just said "oh so sorry sir" turned around, shut and locked the door and left the room, had their giggle about it and that would be that!!!---he was doing what he was doing in private---we seem to have lost all sense of perspective these days----
Based upon the charges this man faced---nearly anyone could, if caught at a particular point by someone else in the sexual act either solo or in tandem---could face similar sorts of charges.
My response to this story is based on issues of personal freedoms and also tying up the resources of the police, the prosecutors, the court and probation in such a non case---damn what a fucking major waste of the taxpayers' dimes!!!!
If the guy was in a blanking park or some such--then yeah--he was a dumb ass that deserves whatever negative consequences might ensue--but in his own place or a motel room--one does have an expectation of privacy.
His actions could not do any harm to the bike and if he had used the bike, in private, as an instrument to get off and that is somehow probited--- using that legal logic----you can't use one of those fake vaginas, a dildo or even your hand to get yourself off either for God's sake----
Holy shit--- we have lost all frreaking perspective!!!
I am saying "we" because these days--the same damn stupid shit could happen here in the States as well.
I am going by the story as posted in the thread--it says he was in his room at the boarding house or whatever it was----he was living there according to the account in the report---a person is under no obligation to answer one's door if someone knocks or rings and even though he was staying in a place that provided cleaning services---he should still have an expectation of privacy-- as long as he was not having sex with a child or a corpse or something of that nature--as an adult, he should not even have to defend himself in this instance----the maids, the management of the establishment, the police and everyone else involved in prosecuting this man--based on the facts as presented in the report--- in my view were wrong and should face some sort of sanction for violating this man's privacy----
The one thing is--there does have to be far more to the story than was presented in that posting----I would certainly think that has to be the case----if not and the facts are as the report states---then what happened to this guy might have been the law----but it sure as hell was not just!
