Japanese women marry themselves

[SandalsParticipant 4253]

Truth is stranger than fiction.

Craving Freedom, Japan’s Women Opt Out of Marriage

a group of nearly 30 friends gathered in a banquet room in one of Tokyo’s most fashionable districts last year to witness Sanae Hanaoka, 31, as she performed a public declaration of her love — for her single self.

Oh, I guess someone posted this from the NYT article. But I can’t read the article because I am not a “member” of New York Times. You can read the full article and see her picture in her wedding dress at the link above. She is marrying “herself”.

They are doing it in other countries too. Japan however has their wedding industry geared to cater these things.

The documentary Love and Sex in Japan has a segment dicussing this.

Women want everything, but want responsibility and accountability for nothing.

[Verse 1]
I’ve got your picture
Of me and you
You wrote “I love you”
I wrote “me too”
I sit there staring and there’s nothing else to do
Oh it’s in colour
Your hair is brown
Your eyes are hazel and soft as clouds
I often kiss you when there’s no one else around

[Verse 2]
I’ve got your picture
I’ve got your picture
I’d like a million of you all ’round my cell
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You’ve got me turning up and turning down
And turning in and turning ’round

[Chorus]
I’m turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so

I’m turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so

[Verse 3]
I’ve got your picture
I’ve got your picture
I’d like a million of you all round my cell
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You’ve got me turning up and turning down
And turning in and turning ’round

[Chorus]
I’m turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so

I’m turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so

[Bridge]
No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it’s dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a cyclone ranger

[Chorus]
That’s why I’m turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so

Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so

[Outro]
Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so

Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I’m turning Japanese
I really think so
