Google "absurd laws in China" and see what else can you find....
You can do the same for other countries too, just change country name.
-Drivers of power-driven vehicles who stop at pedestrian crossings are liable to a fine of up to five yen.
was already stated
HappyExPat:
If you want to be real technical about it, you claimed the fine was 5 yuan, when the law stipulates either a fine of UP to 5 yuan (or could be less than 5), or no fine at all but a warning. So, I felt the correct posting of the law again was justified.
Men can't spit in front of us girls?? Really???? Really?????? Wow.
Imagine how much trouble you would be in if you were having sex with the wife on a Thursday evening in Beijing in a position other than missionary and you spiced it up with a little slap and tickle with a 2 1/2 inch strap and while this was all happening you accidentally farted.
MissA:
Particularly if you were in a hotel room and that position needed her to be standing up naked....
