We've all heard that some places have some pretty crazy laws. But have you ever taken a minute to look at the different laws that every region of the world has at one point written into their legislation? Here are some of the most outlandish laws that I found:
1.) A woman is prohibited to walk around topless in Liverpool, England, unless she is selling fish in an exotic seafood store.
2) In Scotland the law states that all citizens must allow anyone who knocks on the door use of their toilet.
3) In Indonesia, if you are caught masturbating, the penalty is decapitation.
4) In Utah, it is illegal to walk down the street carrying a violin in a paper bag.
5) Portugal has a law stating that it is illegal to pee in the ocean.
6) In South Carolina, an unmarried women is prohibited to buy edible panties.
7) In the town of Devon, Texas, the law prohibits making furniture in the nude.
8) In Vermont, it is illegal to pick your nose and the put the remnants under a table.
9) If you do not have a hunting license in California, it's illegal to set a mouse trap.
10) In Ohio, it is against the law to get a fish drunk.
11) In British Columbia, law states that it is illegal for anyone to kill a Sasquatch.
12) New York law stipulates that it is illegal for any restaurant to call a sandwich made from white bread and mayonnaise a "corned beef sandwich."
13) In Italy a person who is obese is not allowed to wear polyester.
14) In Athens, Greece, a policeman can revoke a driver's license if the driver is either poorly dressed or showing signs of not being properly bathed.
15) In Florida, a single/unmarried woman who parachutes on a Sunday is liable to be jailed.
16) In York, it is legal to kill a Scotsman within the ancient city walls, only if he is carrying a bow and arrow with him.
17) In Samoa, it is against the law to forget your wife's birthday.
18) By law in Kentucky, you are not allowed to paint your lawn red.
19) In Switzerland, a man may not relieve himself while standing up after 10pm.
20) In Bahrain, a male doctor is legally allowed to examine a woman's genitals, but is forbidden from looking directly at them during the examination. In order to examine her, he has to look at the reflection in a mirror.
21) In Victoria, Australia, it is illegal for people to wear shorts that are hot pink on Sunday after noon.
22) In England, a man desires to urinate in public is able to do so if he aims for his rear wheel and keeps his right hand on his vehicle.
23) In France, there is a law forbidding the sale of dolls that do not have human faces.
24) In Scotland, being drunk and possession of a cow at the same time, is illegal
25) In the UK, a pregnant woman legally may relieve herself anywhere she desires. If she becomes desperate, she can even request the use of a policeman's helmet.
While many of these are very old and outdated laws, they are still very funny and interesting to read. It is interesting thinking that at some point in the past, someone thought it was necessary to add these to law!
What other weird international laws have you heard of? Have you ever been caught disregarding a law that you never thought would be a law? What happened?
