Mosca's right; there's no way you can pull off something like that in a typical tub (and trust me, you don't even have to be gay to find that ou- ...umm, I'll stop there before TMI kicks in.) Umm, heh, anyrate, back to the point: The perception of such a specific act could be made (though only by those who have never tried to get frisky with their SO in the shower... heh.) However, I gotta say it Scott: I respectfully disagree that such a conclusion could easily be arrived at, unless the viewer is acting on base assumptions, in reaction to the sight of two men touching in ways that a hetero couple usually would when alone. What those assumptions are depends on the individual, yes? Ah, but that's the bitch about a media that only feeds one sense out of five... you have to construct the rest in your mind, and the mind is unique among individuals. Then again, that is what art is for, no? To let one's imagination fill in those things that the mind cannot otherwise gather from alternate sensory inputs.
