In law school, one of the first things they taught us about negotiating was to always ask for more than our client really wants since we might get it, while low-balling requests guarantees disappointing results. That, I’m assuming, is the principle behind this married lawyer’s lawsuit which asks for sex twice a day.

An Israeli lawyer tried but failed to legally bind his wife to have sexual intercourse with him twice a day, the country’s top-selling daily reported on Wednesday.

The Yediot Aharonot said that the lawyer, whose name was not disclosed, filed a petition to a court demanding his wife commit herself in writing to having sex with him “every morning and every night”.

The lawyer, who complained his wife had wrongly accused him of attempting to force her into sexual relations and of beating her, also demanded that she comply “under no pressure whatsoever”.

The court ruled the petition was not receivable.

Then again, he could just be an asshole. Who am I to judge?
