    Well, it is typically a psychological problem. It doesn't mean that the person who compulsively flashes is by definition bad, but they are disturbed, and usually quite childish. Of course there are people who are just exhibitionists also.

One night in November, a girl from the drive-through window came to the back and got me, and she couldn't even talk for a minute. Then she said "She ain't got no clothes on!" I dashed to the window to see a green car pulling away. It seems he pulled up to the window and stepped out of the car naked! It's cold here in November! The idiot came back twice more! I had his licence number and called the cops. He should have froze certain important parts of his anatomy off that night!

    what about "flashing device"
    "Instruments" is my name, not necessarily the latest term.

    Are you asking what the term "flashing" means? It means exposing one's self, you know, the private areas. I am really blushing as I write that.

    I remember in highschool, we had one of those lockdowns one day. We all thought it was another drill, but they kept us in our dark classrooms for about forty minutes and we were all wondering what was going on.

    Apparently, there had been reportings of a streaker.

    Kept you in the dark for forty minutes? The streaker could have jump on one of you girls.

    ok, I am stepping in here with a carefully considered quiz for the booklovers male or female (Hmm, I wonder if there are any booklovers here? )
    No more flashing talk!

    The book quiz
    This was my result:
    You're Watership Down!
    Though many think of you as a bit young, even childish, you're actually incredibly deep and complex. You show people the need to rethink their assumptions, and confront them on everything from how they think to where they build their houses. You might be one of the greatest people of all time. You'd be recognized as such if you weren't always talking about talking rabbits.

    You're The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe!
    by C.S. Lewis


    You were just looking for some decent clothes when everything changed quite dramatically. For the better or for the worse, it is still hard to tell. Now it seems like winter will never end and you feel cursed. Soon there will be an epic struggle between two forces in your life and you are very concerned about a betrayal that could turn the balance. If this makes it sound like you're re-enacting Christian theological events, that may or may not be coincidence. When in doubt, put your trust in zoo animals.

    Oh my flashers?? Ive never seeen/met one of those I hope I never do ...and in a library .....its bad enough having to deal with the 'starers' and the "I cant afford to go to the adult shop can you get me a list of gay books" and the worst bit is they are leaning all confindencial over the conter and leering at you( which kind of brings the whole gayness into question you know?) I dont know whats wrong with men....
    mind you the only way Ive found to deal with it isif any of that type of wierdo comes in is get under the desk where they cant see me and let one of the older people deal with it.

    Something to do with that pesky "Y" chromosome, I think.

    Ok, I didn't mean our awesome Litnet guys!

    Female streakers? Don't they have names like " Sindee Shakes" and dance around on a stage wearing inordinately high heels?

    Nah, Virgil. I didn't mean by my comment that men were the only streakers, but more a comment in a general sense. Like "Oh dear, what is with men?!" Sort of like when guys say, "Women, what is up with them?!" (that is, if guys really do say things like that...)

    They usually go subject verb object, not object subject verb, but yeah, they do occasionally say things like that.
