P orn on the R un
brouhaha has ensued over a recent
police crackdown on Seattle adult video
arcades.
T he Seattle Gay News says during the past
several m onths it has received numerous
reports from gay men who charge they have
been victimized under a city ordinance that,
according to the paper, claims “ ‘unprotected
sexual activities in public places’ was con­
tributing to a ‘public health hazard’ and ‘infor­
mation shows that such activities occur’ in the
adult boutiques, making the ordinance neces-
ft
sary.
SG N reports Seattle City Councilmember
Tina Podlodowski, an out lesbian and chair of
the Public Safety Com m ittee, defended the
A
recent crackdown saying it was a “public
health measure” designed to stop the spread of
sexually transmitted diseases.
She was part of the council that unani­
mously approved the ordinance two years ago.
In the April 2 issue of SG N, Podlodowski
said, “I do believe that the city has an interest
in regulating what happens in Seattle’s busi­
nesses, especially when it comes to public
health and safety. I do not believe that this
regulation is anti-gay.”
But others beg to differ.
Seattle attorney Gil Levy told SG N the
“peep show” laws are aimed at gay men.
“These are, like sodomy laws, specifically
designed to harass gay men. This is their sole
purpose, they have no other function,” he
charged.
