No Sex for Fireworks
January 2, 2009 –
Men in Naples had to do without sex if they insisted on going out to play with fireworks this New Year’s Eve.
That was the tough love message from Se Spari, Niente Sesso (No Sex for Fireworks), a group that claims to have signed up hundreds of women supporters prior to New Years Eve.
“Setting off illegal fireworks isn’t celebrating – it’s dangerous,” said founder Carolina Staiano, a Naples area housewife, quoted in the La Stampa newspaper.
“If your man doesn’t understand, take action and make him go sleep on the sofa. [Refusing to make love] is an argument that men are particularly sensitive to.”
Reframing her message, provincial officials in Naples were to send out text messages to mobile phones on Wednesday saying: “Make love, not explosions.”
Now, I am not keen on the fireworks at home variety, I prefer a nice, safe display. But Fireworks = no sex? Hmm do you think it will catch on? A tad harsh methinks. Hehehe I have visions of mature boys sneaking out with pockets full of illicit items, naughty grin on face and mischief in the eyes, how could one resist a fella like that?
