Injured man wins damages for sex overdrive

[jeffrey]

Rebecca's upset she didn't think of this one 1st!

LONDON (Reuters) - A devout Christian who said an accident at work boosted his libido and wrecked his marriage as he turned to prostitutes and pornography was awarded more than 3 million pounds ($5.89 million) in damages Tuesday.

Stephen Tame, 29, from Suffolk, suffered severe head injuries in a fall, transforming him from a loyal newlywed into a "disinhibited" character who had two affairs.

He was in a coma for two months after falling from a gantry while working at a bicycle warehouse shortly after his marriage in January 2002. Doctors said it was a miracle he survived.

Awarding him 3.1 million pounds in compensation at London's High Court, Judge Michael Harris said: "His life and the life of his young wife were shattered."

His former employer, Professional Cycle Marketing, of Essex, had argued through their lawyers that his injuries were not as bad as suggested in court.

Wow! I think that would be an easy one to fake. Sure hope my husband doesn't read this.

 

[Bishka]

That's a bit much for him to get. Then again, it all goes down to whether he chose to do those or this accident 'forced' him to do. I'd go with the first choice, as I've never seen or heard of an accident forcing a man to turn to prostitutes and porngraphy.

Yeah, whatever. A bump on the head made him cheat on his wife and ogle porn. I'm guessing his Christian faith is making him feel guilty about these feelings he's had for a long time and he needs something to blame. I'd love to see the details of how they "proved" this.

 

[Buttercup]

Yeah, whatever. A bump on the head made him cheat on his wife and ogle porn.

I hope his wife divorces him and sues him for all the money he was awarded. She deserves it more than he does.

Or she should "bump" him on the head again to cure his addiction. Maybe with a large metal baseball bat...

I'm surprised the courts didn't consider this as an option. Or were they worried that another hit on the head would turn him into a raving, sex-charged nympho manbeast?

Or, she could pretend she fell while blow drying her hair wearing her 6" stilletto heels preparing herself to please his recent wanton desires. She hits her head on the porcelain sink, gets knocked unconscious, and when she awakens has turned into Lorena Bobbit the sequel. Then in the greatest irony of all, she is awarded damages because her husband can no longer perform his marital duties.

I once suffered a similar accident. Fortunately the solution to my increased sex drive was to temporarily upgrade to the Acme Latex Love Doll model 3089, the one with the trademarked "wave action".

 

[Pah]

I think that was a theme for a"Law and Order" TV show. It said that there might be a physical cause for the actions.

I believe everything I see on TV Oh, yeah!

 

[Bishka]

I believe everything I see on TV Oh, yeah!

I hardly believe that Bob.

The same thing happened to a male relative. He was in a coma for several moths as a result of a car accident.
It ended his marriage.
He fortunately found a new wife with a sufficient appetite.

I too suffered a similar accident, when I sneezed while watching "Wild Orchid" just a few weeks ago. It came "Up" and stayed that way for 2 weeks. Very hard, no pun intended, to use the bathroom. I was embarrassed to go into public. Some women giggled. A sailor saluted me. It wasn't until I came across a picture of Britney Spears getting out of a car without her panties that caused it to subside. (I lost my lunch too!).
