Something you don’t see every day

From the Telegraph:

Transvestite had sex with a dog at English Heritage castle
A transvestite had sex with a dog in the moat of an English Heritage castle.

The cross-dressing man was caught with the animal in the dry moat of King Henry VIII’s Pendennis Castle overlooking Falmouth Bay in Cornwall.

The 33-year-old mounted the pet after it chased him out of sight of its woman owner.

The owner had been walking around the ancient castle with a friend when the pair spotted the lone transvestite on the morning of Saturday July 10th at around a quarter to twelve.

He was wearing a black dress and walking around the steep-walled, empty moat.

As the two ladies spotted the cross dresser he ran away. Later one of the dogs chased after the man; by the time the women had caught up, the man was having sex with the pet.

Castle staff then restrained the man while police were called.

Pendennis Castle, managed by English Heritage, is a popular family tourist attraction and was heaving with visitors in high season.

He was escorted home and later made a “full and frank confession”, and received a caution for outraging public decency.

A police spokesman said: “Other agencies were liaised with and he was handed over to them”.

A spokesman for English Heritage said: “This was a very rare incident“.

You don’t say?

I hope none of the those who witnessed this took a photo of it as they could find themselves in hot water under the extreme pornography law…

In five years’ time the Police will be marching on transvestite bestialist pride marches and arresting RSPCA inspectors for hate crimes.

Was it reported whether it was ‘normal’ sex, oral sex, or, anal sex?

Whatever the exact nature of the crime, no doubt he’ll face some very ruff justice inside. Well done the police, for following all leads and collaring the suspect…

So long as they’re not barking up the wrong tree.

and let’s hope this is not a case of the tail wagging the dog

It certainly sounds like a hairy situation with no possibility to win a lot although he may have made a chum.

Do you realise that not one person has enquired as to the sex of the dog? My, we are a tolerant lot in here.

9 Thaddeus J. Wilson July 23, 2010 at 13:23

Anna, in the grand scheme of things, I’m not entirely sure it matters!

10 Gloria Smudd July 23, 2010 at 13:31

Ok, was it a dog or a bitch?

11 Dick the Prick July 23, 2010 at 13:55

Not sure tolerant; just baffled. I had a couple of transgender people lobbying me for a few months as apparently to get either your knob chopped off or get one fitted is under the 1901 Mental Health Act and requires loads of psychiatric interviews and generally jumping through SCG & PCT hoops. It became quite important to me really as it just got my head out of politics and into lobbying.

Also, some lad got done for shagging a goat and the Sun (can be very funny sometimes) had a picture of the goat with its face a bit pixelated so he/she couldn’t be identified. Hmm….some people, eh?

I’m sure its made everyone paws for thought!!!!!

13 Joe Public July 22, 2010 at 22:27

“A mastiff?” he asked the hound.

14 Gloria Smudd July 22, 2010 at 22:38

Tee-hee!

15 Brian July 22, 2010 at 22:54

Was he looking for some “Woof Trade”?

16 Gloria Smudd July 23, 2010 at 00:04

Whatever, I think this shaggy-dog story’s les couilles de chien.

17 Leg-iron July 23, 2010 at 02:22

He really should have checked the definition of ‘dogging’.

It’s a rare event around here too. No more than once a week but our local transvestite is getting old, and the dogs are getting warier.

Soon I expect to see a new brothel with the sign ‘The Dogs of Whore’.

Besides, it wasn’t his fault. The dog chased him, not the other way around.

Poor dog, coming to such a sticky end.

gotta love

So disappointing when a news story omits details you need to hear. What style of black dress? What kind of neckline? What length of hem? Was he/she/it wearing accessories? High heels? Nylon tights or old fashioned stockings?

Come on, man — be specific!

21 Rosscoe July 23, 2010 at 11:58

This story does raise pleanty of questions,

What was the Transvestite doing there in the first place?

Why did he run when initially spotted by the dogs owner and her friend? what was he doing that made him feel the need to leg it or was it just a cunning ploy to make the dog chase him?

Is a caution for outraging public decency really the going rate for committing dog rape in a public area? at the very least shouldn’t the man have been prosecuted for interfering with someone elses property?

And is the fact that the castle is managed by English Heritage of such central relevance to the events that took place that it need mentioning in the headline? You can almost feel the well masked indignation of the Telegraph hack that these events transpired in a castle manged by ENGLISH heritage.

Finally how sure is the spokesman from English Heritage that this is a “rare occurrence”? The crime did occur in Cornwall and neither bestiality nor cross dressing are exactly unheard of in those parts.

Is this a shaggy dog story?
