Florida: Accused flasher says he was just 'airing out' his penis

Let's hope those orange jumpsuits have a lot of breathing room.

William Gibson, 50, allegedly exposed himself outside a Goodwill store in Jensen Beach, Fla., earlier this month, then claimed he was "airing out" his penis, T.C. Palm reported Friday.

Gibson allegedly first stuck his hand down his pants and smelled his fingers before dropping his drawers. Then, according to a witness statement obtained by T.C. Palm, "All of a sudden [Gibson] just pulled down the front of his underware [sic], to expose his genitals, fluffing them."

A witness called sheriff's deputies, who say Gibson stated he was arrested merely for "airing out" his penis. .................(more)

13. Airing out your penis is something you do in private.

Alone, at the explicit request of someone of close age or everyone present adult, and least dangerously among similarly "airy" swimming or sunbathing people who are not leering, fapping, or otherwise imposing sexual activity upon unwilling participants.

Every little boy learns that.

"Outside a Goodwill store" is not an acceptable location.

...or his pencils for that matter? Just because the world is all digital now does that mean pens have to be relegated to our junk drawers? What the hell is up Florida, is this gender specific? Is it OK for the ladies to air out their pens but not us men? Hell, when I, chknltl, was a kid, (chknltlr), we guys used to keep our pens displayed proudly in our shirt pockets! What if we used pocket protectors?

Saul: "Hi Murray, how's Betsy?"
Murray: "She's fine Saul, how's Mildred doing?"

Saul and Murray are butt naked about a foot from each other.

I look down at the floor a lot.

My rap sheet would be a lot cleaner if businesses would put up signs letting people know what is prohibited.
