In Japan. Why am I not surprised?

 

[Perfection]

Looking at the guy's face: yeah, he made the right call.

Personally, my face is good enough for real women.

Now now, we don't have to call him a weirdo. If he wants to marry a video game character and it is legal, he should be allowed to. Ok Idk if what I just said made any sense because marrying a video game character does seem kinda different. However, I did vote yes in the poll for the lolz I guess.

Did the makers of the video game character consent?

You meant LGBTQCJW. LGBTQ already has near a million Google hits and is gaining in popularity fast AFAIK. (Q is for queer/questioning.) I've also heard some people lobbying for the inclusion of I(intersex).

Okay, attempt at more serious discussion here:

I predict lots of people will be doing this soon. "Married" might be overstating the case, but the development of improved chatbots and haptic technology, together with the growing number of feminist hags, entitlement princesses and Twilight fans, is going to result in what I will bluntly describe as the market value of women going down. Women will be unhappy about this, but they're not really in a position to complain given that they got theirs a while back:



As a result, men will raise their standards for "real" women significantly. It remains to be seen whether women will improve or try to respond by suing and banning and legislating men. Scandinavia is boldly forging ahead in the "be offended, legislate" direction with various rules springing up mandating that men must sit down to pee.

I dont understand how a creepy Japanese Weirdo has to do with the LGBT Rights movement...

I dont understand how a creepy Japanese Weirdo has to do with the LGBT Rights movement...

It's continually morphing into a movement for expanded sexual and relationship rights, as I noted above with the earlier acronym expansion.

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Is Princess Peach still available?

Japs are lgbt.

Ya gotta get past Mario first!

 

[SS-18 ICBM]

Is her harming society by doing so? No? Then aside from a raised eyebrow, his actions have no further comment from me.

does japan have gay marriage?

 

[Phlegmak]

The marriage is a publicity stunt, most likely, as the article states. It's stupid.

I hope for God that you are correct.

While I have no love for feminist hags or entitlement princesses, marrying a video-game character (for any other purpose than a publicity stunt) or trying to have "a relation" with chatbot does not make me think that the guy has any kind of "raised standards for real women". Rather I'll say he is a Loser (with capital "L") with serious mental issues, afraid to even look at real women of any kind. It is one thing to settle for a hi-tech male toy for a night in order to save energy/time/money, instead of going to club in an attempt to hook up and entirely another to become emotionally attached to it. One might as well try to marry a washing machine or vacuum cleaner.

EDIT: Also, you've got the law of supply and demand backwards. With the number of decent women going down, their "market value" should go up.

does japan have gay marriage?

No. But Japan recently this year has decided to recognise gay marriages of Japanese citizens married to foreign nationals in countries that recognise gay marriages.

Don't know why they made it this way..
