No sex please, we're Tufts students
By adamg on Mon, 09/28/2009 - 10:24am
Tufts Daily reports Jumbo U. has a new policy that prohibits students from having sex in their dorm rooms if their roommate is present. Seems Tufts doesn't have many places for couples in lust to be alone, because there were "a significant number of complaints" about roomie sex last year. College officials emphasize the rule is meant to foster open communication between roommates, to try to head off formal complaints to the school.

Nothing worse then waking up
Nothing worse then waking up and figuring out your roommate is having sex 3 feet away from you. If you don't get along with your roommate enough to devise a clever system by which you can manage to carve out some time for the hanky panky tought luck for you.
Kids today
Back in my day, if your roomie was en deshabille, he put a tie around the doorknob, letting you know you needed to find a carrel at the library or one of the couches in the dorm lounge.
There's your problem right there.
How many college kids routinely wear neckties nowadays?
Ah!
Yeah, they went so well with our beaver coats - and those beanies!
Yeah but
How many college students wear Beavers these days?

who and the what now?
Wear?
Wear?
Actually, there are probably more occasions for ties now than in the 1980s.
I think the thinking went
I think the thinking went that everyone had ONE necktie in their closet at any given time.

used to make me put a do not disturb sign on the doorknob.
I am SO GLAD I lived off
I am SO GLAD I lived off campus, in a house, with roommates who, if they did have sex, did it discreetly in their own room.
In fact, I may call them today to thank them for their thoughtfulness in this matter.
leaving out so many things
like what about sex WITH the roommate?
or say letting the roommate join in the fun?
or if the roommate has voyeuristic tendencies?
and what forms of sex are out the window?
so sad, so so sad.
No problems there ...
If your roomie is involved in the festivities, I doubt that he or she would be calling campus complaint lines over the situation.
I suspect that Tufts was merely highlighting that people who are paying for a dorm space have a right to be comfortable and to not get locked out constantly. Meaning, your need to bump uglies is trumped by the rights of others who share the space.
Sex out the window? Wow - that's wanting to have sex in the worst way ...
Sex out the window?
Why am I suddenly thinking of mai tais?
I agree. It is one thing if
I agree. It is one thing if you have a tit for tat with your roommate but if you can not come to that agreement then you should figure out other arrangements. We live in an age of texting, is it so hard to set up a system where you can email your roommate and ask if they can chill out somewhere until your done. If you live with a roommate who is anti social and is always in the room... well the best way to handle this is to be a good friend and get them out of the room. Take them with you when you go places on occasion and introduce them to your friends (lets face it, if your having so much sex in your room that your roommate being around is a problem chances are you are a social person) get them involved so they have a place to go when your looking to have some fun.
It is inexcusable for someone to be locked out of their room without their consent. If they do not provide it at first it is your job to figure out how to make it happen.
Why not both cum out the window?

and what forms of sex are out the window?
Wow, that's a mighty big glory hole.
Just so long as we don't
Just so long as we don't literally throw sex out the window. That would be defenestration, which at least my Alma Matter considered quite a rules violation.
