Interesting idea for an exhibit... and to think that the government public transportation system is the sponsor!
One aspect that I like is... Quote:
I still remember a few bathrooms where the walls were covered with "Be here Tuesday for a good time" and crude drawings of penises...

The college campus thing might be a matter of time and opportunity; maybe going to a dorm room is inconvenient? The park arrests are especially in Southern states -- a lot in Florida -- although there were those arrests just in the last few years in California which were tossed out by the courts. I remember in the '80s when I lived in DC being cruised on the Metro regularly. Hmm, I don't recall restrooms in Metro stations; were there any? The student center at the university where I took evening classes for work was quite active, though. Guys waiting in every upper floor elevator lobby to see who would come out when the doors opened! ![]()

You do still hear of the occasional arrest - but usually just if it is TOO much in the open - I know of a couple of parks here in LA where they have had problems with guys being just off the trails...
Colleges are funny - it always seems to be the library bathrooms that are listed as the active sites! I know when I was in school the dorm room never would have a good place - between the roommate(s) and bathrooms down the hall there were always people wandering around so no chance of privacy if you wanted to remain discrete.

The park arrests seem to be especially common in places like Polk County or Martin County, Florida. In Polk, it's almost like a regular sweep of the parks, then the cruisers come back, then the sweep comes back, again and again.
I don't know what it is about the state. I remember visiting Orlando twice in the '90s. Both times every rest stop on I-4 between Orlando and Tampa seemed to have cruising glances, although we had places to go and Parliament House with sufficient diversion at night. ![]()

The funny thing is making gay sex illegal and socially unacceptable is what started things like cruising in parks and bathrooms to begin with. Gays had no way (pre Internet) of finding and meeting each other and those places were considered the only way of finding a partner.
I do understand the police saying you can't just go at it in the open - these are areas for the general public - but I have never understood them busting adult theaters or bookstores. If you go in an ABS or porn theater you know what to expect - it is not really "public" - and it should be understood by going there you accept what you might see. And the fact they would often publish names - sometimes even pictures - in the newspapers - well that is just wrong! What I am glad about is they are now tossing out convictions on entrapment - there is no reason to have a cop hang out in a bathroom just trying to get someone to make a move and then arrest them.
