10 Most Ridiculous Laws across the World
We tried building the repository of the most stupid laws one can find on this puny planet and realised that whether they’re republicans or democrats, Obama or Bush, congress or some other party, no government has a monopoly when it comes to creating such senseless laws.
Anyway, laws are meant to be broken, especially if they are as useless as our list of 10 most useless laws around the world. Let’s check them out -
Anyway, laws are meant to be broken, especially if they are as useless as our list of 10 most useless laws around the world. Let’s check them out -
1. In Saudi Arabia, it is illegal for women to drive a car. Last year the government detained two of the county’s female advocate when caught driving in an effort to lift the ban (Source). Right now it’s illegal for them to vote too. However, it’s expected to become legal in 2015.
2. In Iowa, it’s illegal to kiss a woman in public if you own a big mustache on your face.
3. In the state of South Carolina, USA, the government has made a law called the no “mock proposal” law, under which anybody above the age of 16 is allowed to make a proposal if they don’t mean it. But how they make sure that people follow it, is apparently quite unclear.
4. In Massachusetts it is deemed illegal for a woman to be on top during sex. They however are free to do it in any other way they like.
5. In Vermont a wife requires her husband’s permission to wear false teeth.
6. In Oregon you cannot do dirty talks while having sex with your partner. It’s illegal. Although the government has kept it quite undisclosed, what all according to them precisely fall under the list.
7. In Singapore, the state government has put a ban on selling non-medical chewing gums, given that people dispose chewing gums incorrectly by sticking them under places like tables and chairs… Sticking them under places like tables and chairs? Well, that sounds familiar!
8. In Florida, it’s illegal to fart in a public place after 6pm. By the way, it’s only applicable on Thursday evenings.
9. In Switzerland, it is illegal in block flats and apartment areas to flush a toilet after 10pm, in the interests of noise. Though you are allowed to pee in a standing posture… sweet!
10. In another useless awful law, Vladimir Putin – Russian president, has quite recently made it illegal to tell kids that gay people exist.
