STRANGE 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. (Makes you hope you never
need surgery!)
- 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. (Whoa!)
- 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 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.)
- 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?)
- 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!!)
