This is just mildly disturbing.

Pretty much Egypt is proposing a law to make it legal for a husband or wife to have sex with their dead spouse for up to 6 hours after death. Apparently because marriage is considered binding even after death.

Moral disgust aside, it seems like this would be really terrible for death investigators.[/quote]

Can someone find a non-Daily mail article (they can have some really awful article sometimes)

I sincerely, out of a mild believe in genuine human decency, do not believe this can be true or as it is written in the article[/quote]

Why would it not be true or difficult to believe? Egypt is a majority muslim country with widespread support for islamists. In that culture a women are nothing more than property.

Here is the alarabiya article…

Anyone got a non-alarabiya version? You do? Got a non-Huffington post version? Oh…how about a non-Chicago Tribune version? Uh huh. Bet you don’t have a non-International Business Times version. You do? Err…refuse to believe. Nah! nah! nah! nah! Can’t hear you![/quote]

Well, I’m depressed now.

Hey, who likes football? Egyptians like football…sort of. And the “white knights” - they like football too.[/quote]Oh it’s jist a bunch of the fellas cuttin up at a git together. Let’s don’t overreact huh?

You guys remember when some people were going on about how the upheaval in Egypt was going to make them free and whatnot?

So, can someone guide me through this?

I come home, my wife lies dead on the floor.

I am assuming, since this is how it is that her bladder as well as other organs have stopped functioning which is why she basically lies there in her own filth.

Do I A) make sure that there is nothing to be done, clean her up, put her into a nice dress and try to send her off with some dignity or

B) jump to the conclusion that she is still warm so one more romp should entirely be possible.

Where is the road I do not see that would lead me to B ?

Well, to be fair, its not as if you spouse is any less free or dead for that matter if you do the nasty with his or her corpse but still…

I do think this ties into the women’s rights though.

It certainly does. If the supposed laws pass it will essentially make Egyptian women solely sex objects… dead or alive.

Am I the only one who thought of Clerks when they read that?

I had the opportunity this weekend to speak with a couple of my in-laws about the daily mail/alarabiya article and most of them do not believe it to be true. If it is true; it went under the radar for my in-laws which worries me because they tend to be on the ‘more aware’ side of Egyptian society.

I saw this on the news today though and found it slightly comforting:

I’m kind of hoping the military suspends elections and takes back complete control of the government. People will be pissy and moany but at least dumb shit like ‘farewell intercourse’ laws won’t be passed by Islamist groups. I think the Egyptian people proved they are unaware of the dangers these groups pose to the country, so, screw it - let the military handle it.

Have a cold one!
