Egypt to Allow Men to Have Sex with Dead Wives?

Necrophilia may soon be legal in Egypt. No really, it's true.

The country's Islamist-dominated government has introduced a law that would allow a man to have sex with his wife for up to six hours after her death, the Daily Mail reports. Yes, after her death.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Some are calling it the "farewell intercourse law," but this blogger is just going to call it what it is -- gross. And thankfully, illegal if you happen to live in the U.S.

Egypt's dead sex law can apparently be traced to a 2011 statement made by cleric Zamzami Abdul Bari. He believes that marriage is valid even after death, and according to the Daily Mail, that both men and women should be able to have intercourse with a dead spouse.

Egypt's National Council for Women is against the farewell intercourse law, reports Al-Arabiya. They see it as another attack on women's rights. But it could also be characterized as an attack on human dignity.

Nearly all religions -- including Islam -- demand respect for the dead, Professor Carl Raschke recently told the Huffington Post. As a result, followers are expected to treat corpses in specific, often ritualistic ways.

This is likely one reason why necrophilia is prohibited in much of the United States. And in states where it is not, laws that aim to protect corpses generally prohibit such conduct. It's often illegal to disinter, desecrate or deface a corpse or grave without permission.

So please, don't go having sex with your wife -- or anyone else -- after she dies. Egypt's farewell intercourse law won't save you from prosecution.
