Australia: Couple caught having sex in public, only man charged

This story is another example of men being held responsible for not just their own behaviour but also that of women. SHE was on top of him, yet HE was the one that was the only one charged. HER name isn't mentioned, and I presume she wasn't charged. Unbelievable.

'A Darwin man has pleaded guilty to having sex at a petrol bowser and refusing to stop even when asked by police to do so.

The Darwin Magistrates Court has heard that 29-year-old Lionel Mark William Spratt was seen sitting with a woman in a ute parked at a bowser, near the front door of an Adelaide River petrol station last September.

The court heard the woman got out of the driver's seat and sat on his lap and he started to "passionately kiss her".

The court heard the woman was making "loud moaning noises" and moving her body in a way that indicated the pair were having sex.

Police were called and officers asked Spratt to stop what he was doing but he continued for several more minutes.

When asked why he behaved indecently in public, Spratt told police "no comment".
He will be sentenced on Wednesday.'
