Strange Sex Laws

1. In lebanon, men are legally allowed to have sex

with animals, but the animals must be female. Having sexual relations

with a

male animal is

punishable by death. (like that makes sense. )

2. In bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a

woman's genitals, but is prohibited from looking directly at them during

the

examination. He may only

see their reflection in a mirror. (makes you hope you

never need surgery! )

3. Muslims are banned from looking at the genitals of

a corpse. This also applies to undertakers; the sex organs of the

deceased

must be covered with a brick or piece of wood at all times. (a brick? ? )

4. The penalty for masturbation in indonesia is

decapitation. (whoa! )

5. There are men in guam whose full time job is to

travel the countryside and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the

privilege of having sex for the first time. . . Reason: under guam law, it

is

expressly forbidden for virgins to marry. (let's just think for a

minute; is

there any job anywhere else in the world that even comes close to this? )

6. In hong kong, a betrayed wife is legally allowed to

kill her adulterous husband, but may only do so with her bare hands. The

husband's lover, on the other hand, may be killed in any manner desired.

(ah! Justice! )

7. Topless saleswomen are legal in liverpool, england

- but only in tropical fish stores. (but of course! )

8. In cali, colombia, a woman may only have sex with

her husband, and the first time this happens, her mother must be in the

room

to witness the act.

(makes one shudder at the thought. )

9. In santa cruz, bolivia, it is illegal for a man to have sex with a

woman

and her daughter at the same time. (this was a big enough problem that

they

had to pass this law? )

10. In maryland, it is illegal to sell condoms from vending machines

with

one exception: prophylactics may be dispensed from a vending machine

only

"in places where alcoholic beverages are sold for consumption on the

premises. "

(is this a great country or what? . . . Not as great as guam, though! ! )

I don't know whether any of it is true.

But, I think the Guam thing is true. I think I have read this before somewhere...

number 6 is awesome...we should really adopt that one.

You've given me something to aspire to schadenfreude. I'm going to move to Liverpool and open up a chain of tropical fish stores!

YAY #7

number 6 is awesome...we should really adopt that one.

agreed

what's up with number 1?!?!?

I know, huh! It really isn't fair for them to rule out male animals is it

... is all I have to say.

#4... yikes!

Guam return is only 189.00 pounds.... I think Im due a vacation.

Wonder if I can get a temporary working permit ??

#4... yikes!

what's the big deal with that? i mean do you really need to be decapitated?!?!?

I'm not going to Indonesia.

Wow @ #4.

It reminds me of what Frank Zappa said about music censoring.

^What did Frank Zappa say?

"The PMRC proposal is an ill-conceived piece of nonsense which fails to deliver any real benefits to children, infringes the civil liberties of people who are not children, and promises to keep the courts busy for years dealing with the interpretational and enforcemental problems inherent in the proposal's design. It is my understanding that, in law, First Amendment issues are decided with a preference for the least restrictive alternative. In this context, the PMRC's demands are the equivalent of treating dandruff by decapitation. (...) The establishment of a rating system, voluntary or otherwise, opens the door to an endless parade of moral quality control programs based on things certain Christians do not like. What if the next bunch of Washington wives demands a large yellow "J" on all material written or performed by Jews, in order to save helpless children from exposure to concealed Zionist doctrine?"

that's just too weird

I'm more scared of the world day by day

we all are, shooter
