Stupid Sex Laws

Click for Spoiler:

Most Middle Eastern countries recognize the Islamic law which states that, after having sexual relations with a lamb, it is a mortal sin to eat its flesh.

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.

In Bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a woman's genitals, but is forbidden 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.

The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.

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. The reason? Under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden for virgins to marry.

In Hong Kong, a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her adulterous husband - but may only do so with her bare hands.

Topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, England - but only in tropical fish stores.

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.

In Santa Cruz, Bolivia, it is illegal for a man to have sex with a woman and her daughter at the same time.

In Maryland, USA, 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."

From someone who was working in a photo store, which specializes in restoring old photographs, when a lady brought in a old picture of a man sitting behind a cow, milking it.

Her: "Can you fix this picture for me?"

Me: "Sure. What would you like us to do?"

Her: "Can you move the cow?"

Me: "Move the cow?"

Her: "I want to know what my great-grandfather looked like. That's him."

She pointed to the feet sticking out under the cow.

Me: "I don't think we can do that."

Her: "Just move the cow over, and we'll be able to see his face."

Me: "I'm sorry. We don't have the technology to do that."

Her: (getting huffy) "Well, I guess I'll just take this somewhere else."

What scares me the most for all those caution warnings on products, is that someone has probably done all that stuff and they are there so the company won't get sued. I.E. The McDonald's coffee incident...
