My phone rang repeatedly as I parked my car at 8pm. I rushed to pick the call, hoping it was not an emergency.
“This is Inspector John calling from the police station,” came the voice. “Some criminals here want to talk to you.” Before I could make head or tail of what was going on, the second voice came.
“Hallo, hallo, yes it is Gabriel, your patient. I am here with my wife, come and help us!”
The inspector then took the phone and ordered me to appear at the station. Not sure what was going on, I reversed and drove there. I found Gabriel and Rebecca seated in the office with Inspector John, both visibly shaken. I immediately explained that I was not a lawyer and asked what the problem was.
“Doctor, you remember advising us that married couples should follow their sexual fantasies and try them out? We tried something and we were arrested!” Gabriel said, looking down and avoiding eye contact.
Well, at the Sexology Clinic, we encourage couples to pursue their sex fantasies. It keeps the fire burning and prevents your partner from seeking gratification from outside the marriage. We have learnt from a number of couples that they are driven to extramarital affairs by desire to try out new things sexually. They find it hard trying something innovative with their spouses, and as a result, move out. This has led to turbulence in many relationships and even caused divorce. We therefore encourage individuals to venture into new territories with their spouses as a way of enhancing their intimacy in evading extramarital affairs. Couples who do this frequently have stable relationships.
“So, what offense has been committed?” I asked.
“These two were arrested by my officers while having sex at the car park,” the inspector interjected. “My officers were alerted by the car park attendant and immediately swung into action. They are lucky they were not stoned by the public!”
A number of couples seen at the Sexology Clinic have expressed a fantasy of having sex in a public place, including at the beach, in the swimming pool, in public parks and on the roadside inside their cars.
What Gabriel and Rebecca did not know is that the law of lewdness prohibits any form of sexual intercourse in a public place, given that such an act can be offensive to others. Further, the law prohibits indecent exposure of one’s genitals or anus with the intention of arousing another person sexually in the presence of others. The offense becomes grave when done in the presence of children. Such an offense can earn one a jail term of up to five years.
“Very well explained doctor,” interjected Inspector John. “So your clients have broken the law and we need to charge them!”
Rebecca was already shedding tears. Gabriel was stammering incoherently. I explained to the inspector that the intention was good but my clients did not have knowledge of the law. “It is embarrassing if this goes public,” Rebecca said between her sobs. “Please have mercy on us!”
The inspector sat thoughtfully, then called an officer. “Give them a warning in writing. Next time, take them to court!” he said. We all thanked the inspector in unison.
“Will you allow me to kiss my wife to thank her for being brave?” Gabriel asked, suddenly having renewed energy. The inspector nodded, smiling. Gabriel did it and immediately held Rebecca’s hand and rushed out of the office as if running from danger, his letter of warning in one hand.
I thanked the inspector again and promised to educate my clients on the dangers of public display of intimate acts.
