Gay lovers have sex in tree, taunt police

"NEW YORK — Two gay lovers — a man in a black dress and a boy in only a pair of shorts — protested their families' lack of understanding for their relationship by climbing a Central Park (search) tree on Thursday, stripping, performing lewd acts in front of onlookers and refusing to come down for hours.

The lovers, ages 32 and 17, scaled the 55-foot larch tree next to the Chess and Checkers House (search) around 4 p.m., said Detective John Sweeney, a police department spokesman.

The couple had told the boy's parents about their relationship and been rebuked, police said.

The man — described by the New York Post as a pre-operative transsexual — played on branches near the top of the tree and waved at onlookers while the boy sat quietly a few feet below him. Police said the man later performed oral sex on the boy and stripped down to a thong to taunt them.

Police were alerted to the mischief when an onlooker flagged down a bicycle officer. When Emergency Services Unit (search) officers responded, "the two individuals began to shout obscenities to the approaching officers, threatening to push the officers down and throw branches at them in an effort to ward the officers off," police Inspector William Callahan said.

The two were in danger of falling because the tree's largest branches were only 4 inches thick and couldn't support their weight for long, said police, who set up an inflatable safety mat on the ground.

Police negotiators who went up the tree to talk the couple down gave them soft drinks — a Diet Vanilla Coke was one specific demand — and water. A crowd of about 100 onlookers stood nearby.

After about five hours, police put harnesses on the lovers and began to lure them down. The names of the lovers were not immediately released.

The couple were taken to a hospital for evaluation, and Callahan said arrests and criminal charges depended on the outcomes of those evaluations.

No one was injured in the bizarre Earth Day stunt, Callahan said.

"When I heard they were in a tree," he said, "I figured it was very fitting."

Yep. Eeeewww...

I mean, 33 and 17? If you're 33 why would you want a 17-year old anyway? They're so damn... 17! It's an age designed to drive a mature person insane.

A smidgen too old for pedophilia, way too young to be healthy.

That's pretty fucked up, gay or straight, displaying sexuality in public is a major violation to those around. I wonder if the 33 year old will be charged with having sex with a minor? I don't know the legal age in NY though, but criminal charges are definately inline.

You are just jealous that you are in Phili and all the hot 33 year olds live in new york.

Not really. America is becoming a modern Soddom and Gamora. Thirty year olds and eighteen year olds having sex is quite common. What do you think these rich businessmen do when their wives are asleep and they get their freak on with the computer? Not to mention the ones that fly to Thai Land over the weekend . . .

I see a future where we have a Caesar and it will be commonplace for him to sleep with men and even pre-teen boys. This display was just . . . a tantrum.

What's disturbing is that many men use the same machine to masturbate that they teach their children how to spell with. Irk. Gag. Puke. Etc.

Indeed.

I've never been ashamed to say I'm gay because I'm worried about what people will think of me. I'm ashamed because there are so many stupid fucking exhibitionists like this who seem to think that these kind of stunts somehow have positive results.

With that said, it would have been funny if the branch had broken, especially during the blowjob.
