some interesting facts from around the world ( 15s)

Lord Khan

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 themduring 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. 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! shame I am a man though, wonder what about adulterous woman? who are they and where can I find them?

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.
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!

If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6
days, you would have
produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. Hardly seems worth it

If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9
months, enough gas is
produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.Now that's morelike it

A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes.
In my next life I want to be a pig
Banging your head against a wall uses 150
calories an hour.
Still not over that pig thing.
Humans and dolphins are the only species
that have sex for pleasure.
Is that why Flipper was always smiling?

The strongest muscle in the body is the
tongue.
Hummm....I won't touch THAT one!

The ant can lift 50 times its own weight,
can pull 30 times its own weight
and always falls over on its right side when
intoxicated.
From drinking little bottles of..? Did the govt. pay for this research?

Some lions mate over 50 times a day.
In my next life I STILL want to be a pig ...
quality over quantity

Butterflies taste with their feet.
Ah, geez

An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain.
I know some people like that.
Starfish don't have brains.
I know some people like that too

After reading all these, all I can say is.......Damn Those Pigs.

It's probably quite true. These are laws that have never been repealed, so they still exist.

There are 100's of stupid laws people forget. For example, in Ireland you have be 18 to drink, but you can buy it at 16 (This wasn't repealed, but no one acknowledges it).

It's still illegal to eat turkey in England on Christmas Day under a law passed by Cromwell in the 1650's.

Bard

I wonder what the legality is concerning citizens arrest here in Ireland...

"trick or treat"
"what?... oh! you're a witch are you?"
"yeah... I'm a witch, do you like it?"
"no, I don't. You're under arrest. You have the right to remain silent, etc."
"...eh?!?!?"

Here's a weird one - see if you can guess which country this is :
