Crazy Sex Laws
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.)
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.
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??)
The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.
(Wonder which head?)
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?)
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!)
Topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, England - but only in
tropical fish stores. (But of course!)
In Santa Cruz, Bolivia, it is illegal for a man to have sex with
a woman and her daughter at the same time. (I presume this was a
big enough problem that they had to pass this law?)
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!)
