01. The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.
Anyone wonder if this was a case of 'off with his head' and the executioner got the wrong head?
02. 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.
Yes, because we're fine hetero-animals but the idea of Homanimals is disgusting!
03. 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.
I can understand this one - its like the sun, you look directly at it and its burns your eyes!
04. 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.
Hmmm, whole new meaning to the term 'he's got wood' even if he is a stiff!
05. Most Middle Eastern countries recognize the following Islamic law: "After having sexual relations with a lamb, it is a mortal sin to eat its flesh."
And here's me thinking that Gordon Ramsey meant something different when he said 'Lamb tastes nicer with your home made marinade'
06. 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.
Ummm, Guam anyone?
07. 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.
Anyone else hearing Les Dawson feverishly writing a 'mother-in-law' joke from beyond the grave.
Who am I kidding, only about 4 people will get my reference and one of them WILL be Mr P!
08. In Santa Cruz, Bolivia it is illegal for a man to have sex with a woman and her daughter at the same time.
Somethings are worth going to jail for!
09. 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 on the premises."
Ironically... no I won't bother with this one.
10. 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.)
Note to self - if I am ever having an affair while married, don't plan a trip to Hong Kong!

Guam it is! See you there
