A Polish woman is not doing her countrymen any favors by suing an Egyptian hotel, claiming that the hotel pool is responsible for getting her 13-year-old daughter pregnant. The mother claims "stray sperm" in the pool are to blame for the baby souvenir her daughter came back from vacation with. "The mother is adamant that her daughter didn't meet any boys while she was there and is determined to go ahead with the case," said one travel industry source. The level of this mother's ignorance is astounding. Everyone knows that you can't get pregnant in a swimming pool, in a hot tub, or if you press really hard on the girls belly button after sex.

It is interesting that this mother actually believed her daughter is still a "pure virgin" that she didn't meet an boys at their vacation. Was the mother with her daughter every second of the vacation?
I also have a bridge to sell the mother.

The implication of "when in Egypt...." would mean someone there. Obviously, at a hotel or resort, you would expect to find more people from out of town than locals.
This whole thing can be taken as absolute BS though. The oldest publication I could find carrying this story was a polish paper, and they were citing thesun.co.uk. If anyone can make up their own news and publish it, it's them. They rank just up from the now defunct "Weekly World News" [weeklyworldnews.com], where the WWN stories usually included B

Did she befriend any burka-clad girls, and were any of them unusually tall, with a rather deep voice?

Well, true, you can't get pregnant. The girl, on the other hand, is another question.
