Yea or nay to bathroom balling?

With the recent scandal surrounding soon to be ex-Senator Larry Craig, a lot of talk has turned to the issue of gay sex in public places, especially bathrooms. Who's doing it? Should it be illegal? Are there more important issues on which society could focus?

The gay community has debated the issue long before Craig fell from Republican grace. There are men who believe it is their right to explore their sexuality anywhere they want as long as they're discreet about it. There are those who think balancing on a toilet for a blowjob both disgusting and unclean. And what about the pee-shy masses who feel that any distraction, let alone having Mr. Married Man tapping his toes next to theirs, is unwelcome?
