"Human Pet" kicked off bus for wearing leash.

Hopefully her owner teaches her some freaky shit, so she'll have some skills when she finally gets sick of his shit and leaves him for a real man.

That's the best part of dating a girl with a dodgy past, imo.

I'd rep ya for that, but I'm mysteriously out.

And when you're on the public dole, you'll do what the public tells you to do.

Perhaps buses should have a dress code?....Just maybe.

Fine, next time a weirdo wants on the bus, we'll take a vote.

When the weirdo lives the pampered life of a chihuahua on the public dime, is there any more delicious irony then when the public slaps that chihuahua with a newspaper?

Yup. Definitely control issues.

You have an odd definition of "set for life".

I see nothing wrong with that. Its how she defines herself, why bother?

I'd say she is GREAT in bed. True Goths always are.

The guy looks like the buttsex love child of Marylin Manson and Nicolas Cage IMO - not that there's anything wrong with that!

IMHO, he looks like Ross Noble...

Where did you get a degree in psychiatry again?

I dunno, but those are pretty impressive.

I'd give my right arm for one....

I saw a couple like that walking down the street a few years ago (except he was holding her hand as well as the leash). Personally, I thought it was sweet. I mean, you have to really be able to trust someone to let them have a chain round your neck.

Whoa. Tha guy looks like Weird Al.

I don't need to be a psychiatrist to see a father that has control issues.

Or you have to be pretty screwed up in the head, one or the other.

A relationship shouldn't be about control to that degree. A man shouldn't treat the woman he loves like a pet.

I could never put my fiancee on a leash and drag her around. it's demeaning, to be honest, and I wouldn't want to imply that she's no more valuable to me than a cocker spaniel.

It's the left, not right one.

Aw... now I just look like an asshole.

Boy oh boy, he's sure got a face you'd *love* to punch.

He obviously isn't in his right mind. NO ONE in the right mind would wear something as hideous as that jacket.

I dunno about that. Submissive wallflowers can be total freaks in bed because they get off on being pushed to do what they would not normally.

They are only boring if you are.

Meh. Some folks get off on it. For the most part, if it doesn't affect me and mine directly, I don't presume to care what other's get off on, nor do I want others presuming to care what me and my wife get off on.

If all are consenting adults, and none are harmed, knock yourself out.

I agree, for the most part. Everyone has their kinks, their fetishes. I just prefer that people keep it, you know, private.

The leash thing clearly has sexual undertones to it. If she gets off on it, okay. But I don't need to know that much about what their sex life is like from just passing them in the street.

If it was cut off at the waist it would be a good top for a flyin' monkey costume for Halloween.

That is one of three Halloween costumes I've always meant to do:

A conservative 3-piece suit, bowler, umbrella, Chinese menu, and werewolf mask/makeup--ideally for singing "Werewolves of London" on karaoke

A flyin' monkey--just because they are creepy little fuckers

I forget what the other one was.

Wait a minute. She's his pet, which had the connotation of animal. Animals aren't allowed on buses (save service animals). So he wasn't allowed on with his animal. Why is this a problem?

Seriously, their behavior is what got them kicked off the bus. They wouldn't be allowed in a library like that, nor a courthouse, nor anyother public building, so why is it somehow different for a bus? Is decorum not necessary there?

If they were excluded for the color of their skin, their religion, their sexes, their national background, they they could claim discrimination. They weren't allowed on because of their actions. They wanted noticed and when it bit them in the ass they act indignant. They got what they wanted, so why the complaint?

Well, I've had sex once or twice in my life, and I personally don't look at them and imagine them in bed, so it can't be naivety on my part.

Everything everyone wears says SOMETHING about them, personally, I think the 10 year old with the words "porn star" across their chest is far more offensive, but I'm not about to support the right to ban them from public transport. And I also don't imagine the 10 year old in a porn vid.

As I said, I look at that, and just see people who trust each other, and if the guy was doing things like neatening her hair, well, people do that all the time, it's just a teenage couple who do their own thing.

I understand your P.O.V.....but the flip side is that some kinks only work based on their visibility in public.

Exibitiounism the most obvious example.

Now, certainly, once you go out in public then your entitlement to your kink must be constrained by considerations such as public safety and exposure to children, It's not like the couple who gets off on public sex has a unalienable right to do the horizontal bop in the mall fountain. (although I have seen quite a few videos from Europe with couples fucking in public and passerbys none too shocked) but that poses the question - when has the kinky one gone too far in the view of others?

not speaking so much about what you WANT to see, but about what should be dissallowed.

This thread is useless without pics.

I'm cool with that if there's a standard which is consistently applied. Certainly I'm not one to say that any state of dress or undress must be tolerated regardless.
But I have to think that if there is no consistently enforced policy and it's just this one guy who's pissed off about then, that seems unjust to me.

I could see maybe if you had regular folk who made a conscious decision to do something to see who they could piss off, as opposed to it being their regular lifestyle, then maybe you make a case by case decision. But for the most part, if the story is reported accurately, i don't see how the fact that these two are attention whore (or public leeches) has anything to do with being singled out for exclusion.
