Skip sex and go directly to jail
What a bizzar world we live in. Check out the following news report:-
Mexico City – Mexican men who display extreme jealousy or avoid sex with their wives could be tried in court and punished under a new law, the special prosecutor for crimes against women told a local newspaper on Friday.
It sounds like a green light for women to rape their husbands. Can’t a bloke just have a good siesta?
Perez Duarte said indifference, jealousy or lack of love were crimes against women just as much as physical violence.
“Jealousy produces a particular type of stress in the person that comes up against it,” she said. “It is exactly the same. They are wounds, psychological scars identical to physical scars.”
Perez Duarte sounds like a really smart lady. So fellas next time you feel like having a hash word with the wife why not give her a good slapping instead. According to Perez Duarte “It is exactly the same”.

- Should the RBA intervene to lower the Australian dollar? February 10, 2012I had this piece in The Australian during the week. I became interested in the topic during my visit to Switzerland. I conclude that the RBA will not, and probably should not, intervene but it is an interesting topic. The value of the Australian dollar is putting many of our trade-exposed industries under real pressure. [...]Judith Sloan

lol… I just don’t know how to respond to this sort of stuff.
Meanwhile, in the US, some states states are banning sex toys:
http://www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070216/NEWS02/702160336/1009
The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Alabama’s sex toy ban is constitutional because “the state’s interest in preserving and promoting public morality provides a rational basis for the challenged statue.”
There you go – it’s the states job to preserve and promote morality. Astonishing. What about individual choice, you ask?
In previous appeals, the 11th Circuit held there was no fundamental right to use sexual devices.
Sometimes, I wonder what’s wrong with the world…
What about individual choice, you ask? You still have individual choice- to obey or disobey such an immoral law! The world is going wrong because we all put up with this instead of doing something about it! I do not use sex shops or toys, so I don’t know how the law affects us here in Australia, but, unless we want the law to co-evolve here into similar leviathans, we’d better be vigilant!
…………jealousy or lack of love were crimes against women just as much as physical violence.
At least this sensisble law acknowledges an important principle that a lot of men have known for ages: women need sex and men are required to give them lots of it. Arriba! Arriba! Ándale! Ándale! These Mexicans sure are a progressive lot.
Here’s something completely different, though it relates to an old argument. I once thought we could call our intellectual opponents ‘baddles’, because of an acronym, but a sight at the Ludwig Von Mises home page tells me that there was a person called Nicholas Biddle, who interfered in the early american economy by inflating the money supply. So we can legitimately call people who believe in State interference in the economy as Biddlists, or Biddlers! Perhaps even the authorities listed above.
The stress that builds up from lack of sex is one of our biggest social problems. It’s why we need a Department of Sexual Relations to promote appropriate social change and education, to license everyone and accredit registered services, to ensure social justice and equity in the use of society’s sexual resources, and to provide administrative review of decisions whether or not to have sex that may have been erroneous or discriminatory.
Government owned brothels for the masses!
I know that this is all really funny after all it’s happening in far of Mexico. However in another sence it really isn’t funny at all. Perhaps the correct word is tragic.
Brendan, The government service would be sub par, and offer only basic services from a worker who doesn’t want to be there. For ancillaries, or for a worker who pretends to like you, you’d still have to go to a private provider.
However in another sence it really isn’t funny at all. Perhaps the correct word is tragic.
To look for comedy in the tragic is a way to re-humanise ourselves. If we felt the pain of every strike of the legislator’s pen as a strike against ourselves, we’d be paralyzed with rage.

Absolutely… sex should be provided on the basis of need. It’s not fair that attractive people have more sex than others – fat and ugly people need sex too, maybe even more than everyone else!
Those with increased sexual capacity should pool those resources for the public good. And girls that turn down a guys advances in a bar need to be aware that their rejection is a form of assault.
It’s just about increasing fairness. Everyone is entitled to sex.
‘Government owned brothels for the masses!’
It could also come under the rubric of ‘sport and recreation’. We pay for public velodromes, football fields, and horse arenas, so hey. As the socialists say ‘It’s only a lack of political will.’

Michael, could you please let me know the names of some of these women? I am ready to do whatever is required.
You are truly a gentleman, David.
Latin Americans have all the fun! Mexicans get to have mandated standard sex as a right!
In Venezuela, they were plagued by periodic occurrences of a phenomenon which interrupted their working lives, and consumed heaps of paper for useless reasons. Yes they had Periodic Elections! We Australians know how many trees give their all to make the paper that is ignored by everyone! Well, their new President is ready to spend the rest of his life trying to overcome this problem for them! They may never suffer from elections again!
Are there any countries actually worth visiting?
