"Sir, Your Penis is Out!"

There's nothing like calling it like you see it: CC on citynoise had an unfortunate encounter wtih an exposed man on a 7 train. Well, more accurately, the whole train car had the encounter, but CC actually did something about it while on a Friday night Flushing-bound train:

He was watching us from underneath his sunglasses, hoping that we'd notice. I took out my camera phone and snapped some pictures. He tried to cover his face with his Archie book and his hands but he couldn't keep that up. After I was sure I had him, I yelled, "Sir, your penis is out." I wanted everyone on the train to know what kind of person he is. He stayed very still, perhaps hoping everyone would think he was sleeping or that he'd blend into the background. I told him that I've taken pictures and that they are going to the NYPD and websites. As soon as the train stopped at Junction Blvd. he began moving again and ran out of the train. I called him a pervert on his way out.

You can see a bigger photograph of the pervy perp on citynoise, and besides flashing being gross and unsettling, it's really really gross to have genitalia on the train seats. When will a manufacturer of inexpensive, biodegradable, lightweight Hazmat suits emerge?

CC filed a report at the police precinct, giving them the cameraphone pictures. Could the perp be this guy from March? At any rate, hats off to CC for her conviction.

Nudity in public should be legal. Simply seeing a part of a human body harms no one, no matter what age.

That includes erections!

Hey, no fair. Madagascar has all the trouble it can handle.

Hey L.A. Woman, it's not OK to flash people. It doesn't matter if you are a "CHICK". Demean yourself all you want. No one said it was the downfall of mankind. Little things like this should be corrected. We need to ship more people like you to Madagascar because you're idea of civilized society is disgusting. Why dont you go walk around and expose yourself and see how many people will ask you to cover up. No one wants genitalia all over public property. It's like walking out of a bathroom and shaking hands with people without washing your hands. Think about it. L.A. Woman aka prostitute....go back to your cave where you belong and go make yourself useful and shut up.

What is it about the NY subways that makes ugly dudes flash? Ewwww....

Aristocrat

Yeah DisneylandNorth, what this city needs is a good rash of public molestations, flashings, and teen wildings to put the "ew" back in New York.

Chris

What a dick.

I wasn't impressed.

DisneyLandNorth

Why are there so many whiny babies here?! I liked the city better when it had some edge to it. Next, people will be asking for milk and cookies before their naps on the subway.

Rikki

Looks like him to me...

Congrats on having the balls to call this guy out!!

chase

that is sick

"Why don't hot chicks ever do this?"

Because the NYC subway does not have a pool that Pheobe Cates can climb out of.

You know, there was a time that New York wasn't full of shrill, ball breaking vasser grads.

Imagine these chicks walking through times square in 77. Fuggedaboutit.

New Yokers have gone soft. Pun intended.

Bravo, CC! That's using technology for the public good.

Why don't hot chicks ever do this?

Years ago, I was on one of the red line trains when I spotted a guy - white, 30-ish, ordinary-looking, reading the Wall Street Journal - with his foot casually propped against the center pole, exposing the length of his penis inside his baggy shorts leg. There's NO WAY this was an accident.

What's worse is that my traveling companions - my new, female roommates - refused to believe me and insisted that, if his junk was visible, it had to be an unintentional airing. Every guy I've ever mentioned this to has said the dude had to know what he was doing.

There's something super-funny about the contrast between a guy hanging his junk out and the offended pointing it out in such a formal manner. If they can name a band "Clap Your Hands and Say Yeah" then someone can rename their band "Sir, Your Penis Is Out!"
