This story in the Salt Lake Tribune reports on a recent Utah Supreme Court ruling which held that a 15-year-old boy could be charged with lewdness for grabbing his (clothed) crotch in public. The court apparently believes the act is equivalent to pubic masturbation. The story does point out that celebrities (Roseanne, Madonna, Michael Jackson) often grab their crotches in public without being charged with lewdness. I wonder how long it will be before Utah adopts the Tennessee and Mississippi laws which have made it illegal for a man to have an erection if he is in public view (even if said erection is clothed).
