But for centuries, gay men have been arrested, imprisoned, and even executed for less-and in more private surroundings. Other Marines present pleaded not guilty to public indecency and remain in service.įor some, the incident may seem like a harmless, if gross, bit of horseplay. “He’s ashamed and embarrassed at this incident and his family and friends now are all aware of the circumstances of it.” “He had hoped this would be a lifelong career but it has been brought to an end,” said Bowen’s attorney Lynne Sturrock. (Each will also perform more than 200 ours of community service.) The trio plead guilty to charges of public indecency but will face no jail time and won’t be placed on the sex offenders registry, as the court accepted there was “no significant sexual element” to their actions. “This was puerile and repugnant as the narration clearly demonstrates.”
“It appears there’s an expectation that Marines participate in conduct such as this,” said Deputy Duncan. Bowen is seen pulling his pants up just as club security comes over. In the video, the men are seen drinking each other’s urine and putting their penises in each other’s mouths, simulating oral sex.
“A member of security staff checked but found nothing untoward.” But in reviewing CCTV footage the next day, the full incident came to light and staff reported it to authorities. We’ll get back to you about whether we can feature it.Shortly before 1am, the club’s manager was told “there were a number of males with their genitals exposed outside,” said Deputy Stewart Duncan.

It’s not that the ladies I’ve received massages from in Mumbai aren’t great, but that massage was just…so unique! Here’s hoping I’m able to repeat the experience again! Whenever I do make my next trip to Thailand, I’ll make sure to pay that spa in Pattaya a visit. My masseur gave me his card as I was leaving, and till today, I keep it safe in my wallet. I have to admit that I didn’t want him to stop! I didn’t even notice how quickly the allotted 45 minutes flew by.Īfter the massage, I changed back into my clothes and walked out a really happy customer. The soft music and the rhythm of my masseur’s hands de-knotting my muscles was an experience out of this world. As the massage continued, I let my guard down and relaxed completely. The idea of my father paired up with another woman seemed totally unnatural and absurd to me, and selfishly. But I stopped feeling nervous within seconds he was super professional. Dad never dated after the divorcehe didn’t even notice women when they walked by.
His first touch on my skin made me jump – no guy other than my boyfriend had ever touched me like that.
At that moment, I decided to trust him – what else could I do, really? I’d paid for the massage already, and I was – truth be told – kinda curious about this experience.
And so in calm voice, he asked me to just relax and keep my mind blank and free from thought. Only the lower half of my body was now covered with the towel that they had provided. He smiled gently and asked me to lie down on the massage bed. It was a man! I was a bit shocked because I had never gotten a massage from a man before. I had a good feeling about this.Īfter a couple of minutes, I heard the door open. The lights were dim and a floral aroma clouded the room.
I was nervous and equally excited while waiting in the spa room for my massage therapist. I booked an appointment and they asked me to get ready. I said to myself: “This is it! I’m going to go in there and get myself pampered.”Īll went well initially. While I was strolling around the place, a beautiful Thai spa caught my attention. One day, I was walking down the streets of Pattaya. Now, I recently made a trip to Thailand, and I was told that if you don’t get a Thai massage while you’re in Thailand, you’re missing something! I love getting massages! They make me feel completely relaxed and energized – enough to be able to face the hectic week ahead of me.
