Naples women go on sex strike over fireworks injuries
Edited on Wed Dec-31-08 05:15 PM by Common Sense Party
Women in Naples are staging a sex strike in an attempt to stop their menfolk from setting off dangerous New Year fireworks which cause injury and even death.

...

''If a sex strike is what it takes in order to get the attention of our men, husbands, partners and sons, then we're ready for it," she told ANSA, the Italian news agency. "This time they're just going to have to choose: sex or fireworks.''

The Naples authorities have backed the womens' revolt, sending residents text messages with the campaign slogan: "Make love, not explosions".

1. Uhh..ummm excuse me, but why the fuck would they want to get the
attention of their sons with a sex strike? That sounds really odd

Getting the attention of the husband, that's a different story

2. I'm guessing they want the daughters-in-law to get the attention
of the sons

But, hey, read into it what you want.

3. Blown up or blown?
I know which I'd choose.
