THINGS THAT YOU HAVE TO KNOW

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. (Do they > look different

reversed?)

Muslims are banned from looking at the genitals of a corpse. This also

applied 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. (Much >

worse than "going blind!")

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!)

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure. (Is

that why Flipper was always smiling?)

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 government pay for this >

research?)

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

that.)

Starfish don't have brains. (I know some people like that, too)

And, last but not least?.

Turtles can breathe through their butts

How about this...

A pig's orgasms could last for 30 minutes...

Lucky pig...
