German man wants state-paid sex (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/3537071.stm)
A German court has rejected a claim from an unemployed man who wanted the state to provide him with pornographic material and free visits to a brothel.
The 35-year-old man took his local authority to court after the foreign ministry refused to pay an airfare for his Thai wife to travel to Germany.
He argued that they should compensate him for his lack of sex.
...
The 2,500-euro claim (£1,700, $3,050) a month was to fund weekly brothel trips, eight pornographic videos and transport costs to and from a video store.
"I require the brothel visits for my physical and psychological wellbeing," the man said in his application.
Poor wife. I think she's better off in Thailand.
