As if anyone takes the laws in Italy all that seriously. Hey, I've got your crotch scratching law right here! (scratches unit) Ciao!

i really hate Italy. not for anything to do with the article, just in general.

This is going to back up the court system in Italy for years.

Blah. This has to be a repeat.

FTFA: Superstitious Italian men often hold or touch their private parts for good luck when they see a hearse or to ward off bad luck - the equivalent of touching wood in Britain.

You couldn't make this stuff up!

Hero tag?! This is an outrage. Sometimes you have to scratch. HAVE TO.
 
2008-02-28 05:24:18 AM
when you got a package this big it takes some adjustment.

/so big, UPS charges it as freight.

I wish I could ascribe even that level of thought to some of the guys I've seen. They walk down the street holding on like they're afraid their balls are going to fall off.
 
2008-02-28 05:31:48 AM
Why does this get a hero tag? Sometimes the boys need adjusting...or a quick scratch.

So it's still okay for me to scratch my ass though, right?
Or someone else's crotch (yes, I went there)

This article deserves a "villian" tag.

huge stinging ITCH
scratch, scratch, scratch... Aaaaaaaaaah.
C'mon boys, you all know that feeling.
It CAN and WILL happen, anytime, anywhere...
And there won't be ANY denying the urge.

Oh, and:
sticky balls
wrong trouser leg
etc...

If they took away overzealous hand gestures along with this, us Italians would be struck mute.

Oh please, men scratch their sacs all the time. Whats the big deal?
I could really care a less.
Look, I don't have to contend with my ovaries hanging betwixt my legs, poor bastards.

For some reason, they didn't refer to the fact that this decision came from the third penal division of the Rome court. No joke.

I'm in Italy right now for a couple of months(so I'm getting a kick out of these replies...) and I would like to say the men ages 16-42 are sleazes


that is all
 
2008-02-28 07:17:51 AM
Well at least the men can still pinch women's asses that walk by, right?

/Been to Italy several times
//Had it happen each and every time
 
2008-02-28 07:37:25 AM
After seeing StellaOS pic I think these men were highly justified in their actions.

/kidding
//what's the joy in pinching an ass?
///gentle caress is where it's at

What is this, Italian heritage day on Fark?

Go somewhere else and be smelly Italians.
 
2008-02-28 07:47:15 AM
"Attitude adjustments" are still legal, I hope. There's nothing worse than having a lop-sided, funky dick from having it stuck to your leg all day. Not to mention that wet ripping sound as you pull it free.
 
2008-02-28 08:02:50 AM
Come on! Where's the outrage? :)

They better at least put ballsac scratching/"peeling off leg" booths around their cities or at the very least drop the price of Goldbond powder.

/rides off on scooter "ciao!"

Still, it's my ass, not theirs. Pinching and/or grabbing is only allowed by invitation.

Hey, you're a 6-foot freak too? Awesome. We are a rare breed.

Travelling in Italy, Mexico, Spain...I've gotten used to the cat calls and hooting and all that. But nothing, NOTHING compares to the whispers of New Yorkers on the train platforms and walking down a busy street in mid-town. Farking creeeepy.

/also I love italian men
//my uncles, grandfathers, cousins are classy guys
///even if they do scratch their junk
 
2008-02-28 08:52:55 AM
if scrotum scratchin is wrong, i don't want to be right.
 
2008-02-28 09:04:06 AM
Is the problem Italian men scratching themselves or is it the dirty holes of the Italian women?
 
2008-02-28 09:14:07 AM
I think it's the hairy pits and patches of the Sicilian women. I'm pretty sure that they "shave" their legs with a blowtorch.

Wolfinstl: Is the problem Italian men scratching themselves or is it the dirty holes of the Italian women?

I came in to make a joke about Italian women giving them the itch.

/easier to shave than to get that little comb.

Why the hero tag here? What's the over/under on a woman submitting this?

Look ladies, you don't understand our sac scratching just as much as we don't understand your monthly bleeding episodes, need for long, emotional conversations, and boob sweat. Let's just leave it be....

Girls -

If your clitoris was on the end of a tube hanging between your legs, getting caught up in pubes and pinched by trousers / underpants etc, and the tube could expand and contract involuntarily, you'd damn well scratch your crotch too.

Have some sympathy.
