Based on that, I would have to say, no this isn't going to be a trend anymore than dog or cat marriage will become a trend. The crux of any legal arrangement is that both parties freely consent to the arrangement, since inanimate (or even animate) objects are neither free nor capable of true consent (as they lack the ability to undestand the proceedings) they cannot engage in such a legal arrangement. All that being said, if someone wants to say they are married to a videogame, their cat, their career, themselves, or their car, and want to perform a little fake ceremony that's fine.  However I think it's important to differentiate between such activities and the efforts of consenting adults to have their own relationships recognized in a legal way.

It's probably never said no, but can it say yes? __________________ But the backdrops peel and the sets give way and the cast get eaten by the play, there's a murderer at the matinee, there are dead men in the aisles And the patrons and the actors too are uncertain if the show is through and with sidelong looks await their cue, but the frozen mask just smiles Posted:  24 Dec 2009 06:57 Registered User Currently Offline Posts:  474 Join Date: Aug 2008 What an idiot.

As opposed to this idiot! Then again, if he marries a video game character, at least there's little to no chance that he'll ever reproduce.
