    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.
    :confused: Yeah, that makes sense.

    Turtles can breathe through their butts.

    The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.
    That?s so much worst than going blind!!!

    An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain.
    I know some people like that. o_O

    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 illicit lover, on the other hand, may be killed in any manner desired.

    Don?t you just love justice? :D

    Starfish don't have brains.

    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.
    That?s just wrong!!! [face_sick]

    In Santa Cruz, Bolivia, it is illegal for a man to have sex with a woman and her daughter at the same time.
    A regular problem in Bolivia seeing as they needed to enforce a law for it? :confused:

    Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour.

    An 18th century French prostitute could be spared punishment if she were willing to join the opera.

    In Minnesota, it is illegal for any man to have sex with a live fish.

    In Oxford, Ohio, it's illegal for a woman to strip off her clothing while standing in front of a man's picture.

    No man is allowed to make love to his wife with the smell of garlic, onions, or sardines on his breath in Alexandria, Minnesota. If his wife so requests, law mandates that he must brush his teeth.

    In Washington State it is illegal to have sex with virgins at all, not even after marriage.
    Wth? Does everyone have to cross the state line to loose there virginity? :confused:

    A few from back home

    It is illegal for a man and woman to have sex "on the steps of any church after the sun goes down" in Birmingham, England.
    Been from Birmingham I?m very disappointed. :(

    :p

    Topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, England - but only in tropical fish stores.
    Know of any good tropical fish stores, Tim? :D

    In London, it's illegal to have sex on a parked motorcycle.
    Ha! I never liked London anyway. :p

    In the state of Virginia, USA, you are only allowed to have sex in the missionary position

    I heard that from two people who lived in Virginia.

    Interesting

    I have some obscure ones from the USA, although not sex-related:

    My favourite one is - There is a possibility of 25 years in prison for cutting down a cactus in Arizona

    In Arizona when being attacked by a criminal or burglar, you may only protect yourself with the same weapon that the other person possesses.

    In Alaska Moose may not be viewed from an airplane.

    It is considered an offense to push a live moose out of a moving airplane in Alaska.

    It is considered an offense to feed alcoholic beverages to a Moose in Alaska.


    In California It is a misdemeanor to shoot at any kind of game from a moving vehicle, unless the target is a Whale


    In Florida if an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as it would for a vehicle

    In Georgia it is against the law to tie a giraffe to a telephone pole or street lamp.

    You may not swear in front of women and children in the state of Michigan.

    It is legal for a robber to file a law suit, if he or she got hurt in your house in Michigan [face_plain]

    In Nebraska If a child burps during church, his/her parent may be arrested

    Here are some great ones from New York:

    It is against the law to throw a ball at someone?s head for fun.

    The penalty for jumping off a building is death. LMAO! [face_laugh]

    Two reasons why I've never been to Chester or Hereford.

    Chester - You can only shoot a Welsh person with a bow and arrow inside the city walls and after midnight.

    Hereford - You can shoot a Welsh person all day, but only on Sunday, with a Longbow, in the Cathedral Close.
