Women use threat of no sex to stop fireworks

Wed., Dec. 31, 2008

ROME - Some women in Naples said they won't make love if their men shoot off dangerous fireworks on New Year's Eve.

"Se Spari, Niente Sesso" (If you shoot, no sex), as the group calls itself, claims to have signed up hundreds of women in the Naples area to combat celebrations that injure or maim hundreds each year.

Carolina Staiano, a mother of two, was quoted in La Stampa daily on Wednesday as saying she was inspired to create the group because her father was partially paralyzed in a fireworks accident.
