I must admit that I read **jayjay’s** [enlightening thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=434662&page=1&pp=50&highlight=restroom+craig) about the(first person account) of behavior of gays in restrooms. But, I didn’t follow it much after the first week. If any info I post here has been posted before, I apologize. A confirming opinion about Sen. Craig(IMHO) is to be read today at [http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/chi-cruising\_thinkoct07,0,3649716.story](http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/chi-cruising_thinkoct07,0,3649716.story), written by an admitted gay man. If this covers previously done to death posts, a mod can close it. ---

[QUOTE=samclem] I"m not sure if you’re criticizing me? [/QUOTE] Little bit, yeah. Not a lot. “Admitted” isn’t really an appropriate term. It carries a negative connotation. “Openly gay” or, in this instance, just “gay,” suffices. ---

[QUOTE=Shirley Ujest] Is he gayer than a picnic basket? [/QUOTE] Yes. Not only that, but he’s gayer than a box of birds, and gayer than a leather piñata. Whether he’s gayer than a french horn is still undetermined. He probably NOT gayer than 8 guys blowing 9 guys. That’s pretty fucking gay, and a difficult level to attain, I understand. ---
