Kinky Boy?






It seems that Boy George has managed to slip back into the headlines again. George O'Dowd, the former Culture Club frontman, appeared in a London court Thursday November 22 and has been ordered to stand trial on a charge of false imprisonment.

Boy George, 46, posted bail and fled out past awaiting reporters with no comment. His last appearance in court was in was in connection with a false report of a burglary in 2005 when police responding found cocaine in his Manhatten apartment. This latest is based on an event that happened on April 28 in his east London flat.

Norwegian Auden Karlson claims to have met the singer on the Website Gaydar and he agreed to go to George's apartment to pose for photos in exchange for $840. Karlson claims that Boy George and an unidentified man turned into sadistic creeps once he arrived there. He stated that they cuffed him and then threatened him with a box full of sex toys and whips. Karlson has denied being a male prostitute and claimed that he feared for his life.

If convicted of the charge, Boy George could face life in prison and he was oredered to return to court in February. It is obvious that it is a serious charge that he is facing but amazing to me that it had been reported as Boy George being involved in "kinky sex."

On Monday November 19 2007, Daniel French, 24, was sentenced to time served after his arrest early Sunday morning. It seems that the police had asked to leave the Leicester Square Gardens since they were locked at that hour and French wasn't ready to do so.

Prosecutor Philip Lemoine told the Westminster Magistrate that French was drunk and he had made sexual motions in front of the police then. They may have been drunken silliness but the motions he had made were in the effect of having sex with the fence railings.

French of Verity Way, Stevenage, Hertfordshire admitted to being drunk and disorderly but he denied making romantic overtures to the fence. He stated that the police had forced him onto the fence and any idea that any idea that he was trying to do anything sexual to the fence is disgusting.

Tucked at the bottom of that news report was a small paragraph stating that sex with inanimate objects isn't that unusual. Just the week before in Ayr sheriff court on the west coast of Scotland, Robert Stewart, 51, was sentenced to three years probation on a rare charge of sexual breach of peace and a seperate one of breach of peace.

Stewart will also be placed on the sex offenders list for his actions. It seems that when cleaners opened the door to his hostel room, he was naked from the waist down and simulating sex with his bicycle. The unemployed bachelor has stated that drinking was his problem and he thought he would have a little fun to surprise the cleaners. Now branded a cycle-sexualist, he has had to move three times already since news broke.

Stewart was placed under the supervision of a social worker and warned that if he re-offended, he would be sent to prison. The prosecutor in the case added that he had thought in forty years as an attorney, he had seen every perversion known to man.... this one was a new one to him.

His conviction has led others to many questions....... what exactly is sex with a bike? Was the bike in question, taken into protective custody, over the age of 16 and is he banned from bike sheds that are in his area?

All of this does lead me to wonder....... why is Boy George all over the headlines for allegedly having "kinky sex? " I know they mentioned a box with whips in it but the victim involved went there I assume for photos that did not include his wearing clothes and possibly some sex. In comparison with attempting to have sex with a fence and a bike......... is the box of whips all that kinky?
