CNN: Women Marrying Themselves as ‘Symbolic Expression of Self-Love’
Breitbart ^ | 5/30/2023 | Katherine Hamilton

Posted on 05/30/2023 8:56:42 PM PDT by simpson96

CNN spoke with four women who “married themselves” — a self-marriage officially referred to as “sologamy.”

The left-leaning news outlet painted “sologamy” as pertaining more to mental health and “self-love.” rather than an extension of living an “auto-sexual” lifestyle — being sexually attracted to oneself — which has been addressed in other news articles on the topic.

“The concept of self-marriage, or sologamy, has been around for years…No data exists on how many people celebrate sologamy with ceremonies, but the practice has been explored in a handful of recent news articles,” CNN reported.

The women interviewed “described the act as a symbolic expression of self-love and an affirmation of a deep meaningful relationship with one’s self.”

“They also say it has nothing to do with swearing off future partnerships with a spouse, which they say is a popular misconception,” according to the report.

One of the women, body image coach Danni Adams, told the outlet she took several years to invest in herself, go to to therapy, and “break generational curses” and “process trauma” before she decided she was ready to marry herself.

After the pandemic she married herself in front of roughly 40 people. The event included nine bridesmaids at a cost of $4,000. A friend officiated the ceremony, and Adams read her vows in front of a full-length mirror, according to the report. Following her self-wedding, she honeymooned in Tulum, Mexico.

A symbolic expression of self-love and a tangible expression of neurosis.

No doubt they’re all insane liberal women, who just don’t understand why men aren’t interested in their obnoxious femi-nazi opinions. What man wouldn’t find that “endearing”?

Technically, self marriage is impossible. The definition of marriage is the legal and spiritual union of a man and woman as husband and wife, not two men or two women!

With all that “self-love” going on, I am glad they are doing the right thing and making honest women of themselves.

That seems like making a public statement to the world that you have given up on the idea of ever finding a romantic relationship that lasts.

If one did not want to make a full commitment, could one just marry a foot or an ear or a buttock (one, but not both)?

The loonies have won.

Hence, at some point, we should expect a self-divorce. That may get ugly.

I considered proposing to myself, but I was afraid that I might say no.
