Penal Code

‎"In Singapore, under the Penal Code, Section 509 states that individuals intending to insult the modesty of any woman by saying any word (including the F word), making any sound or gesture, or exhibiting any object, can be jailed up to one year, fined, or both." ~ Great revelation to be kept in mind for future self-defence by the fairer gender :)

Hi Audrey ~~ This is a good law. I don't think it would stand up to our U.S. Constitution though as it is worded to a specific gender (sex).

In Texas, the normal misdemeanor of battery (assault and battery) is elevated to a felony is committed upon a senior citizen of either gender.
