    Take the scenario of some guy who goes out dancing, having a great time with their preferred sexual partner on the dance floor. On the way home stops in the park for a wank because they’re single, young, drunk, horny and stupid.

      Doesn’t even need to be a wank. Just having a pee out in the open at a park is enough to get you on that registry.
