Some trivia topics for today...(Open to discussion)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
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 applies 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 illicit lover, on the other hand, may be killed in any manner desired.
I wholeheartedly agree with Jemima. Why don't people read the jokes and laugh, or not laugh whichever they want, without having to criticise. We all know they go round the world several times and if they land here once or twice, who cares. Anyway, I thought they were funny jem, even though not necessarily true.
In Saudi Arabia the penalty for adultery by women is the death sentence, there is a choice of being stoned to death or crucified. This applies even if the woman is raped.
