Urban Legend?

A commenter over at Asiapundit offered that my post on the legality of wives killing their adulterous husbands with their bare hands may be an urban legend. I just don't know but there are lots of strange adultery laws.
While not as extreme as the ancient Israelite punishment for adultery (stoning), Greek men still had their fair share of discomfort when their pubic hair was removed and a large radish was shoved up their rectum [This is punishment for a Greek?].
Or how about these?
The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.

There are men in Guam whose full-time job is to travel the countryside and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the privilege of having sex for the first time... Reason: under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden for virgins to marry. [Let's just think for a minute; is there any job anywhere else in the world that even comes close to this? Here's a job, Spike, that may be worth pursuing].
All kinds of other interesting weird sex laws here, including....
In Lebanon, men are legally allowed to have sex with animals, but the animals must be female. Having sexual relations with a male animal is punishable by death.
More here. Urban legends, maybe, but definitely amusing.
