"A 36-year-old North Dakota woman who married herself in a commitment ceremony last March has now spoken about her self-marriage choice in an interview with Anderson Cooper.

"The marriage took place among friends and family who were encouraged to "blow kisses to the world" after she exchanged rings with her "inner groom".

So, I wonder if her inner self cooks dinner, does her outer self wash the dishes?

No wonder her young kids chose to live with their father.

Is this even legal?

What a self centered society we live in.

Is this gay? Where's her parade?

I guess it's better (?) than that lady that married the Eiffel Tower or whatever on that TV show...at least this lady's keeping it to human beings. Still, makes me wonder why we can't just call people crazy anymore. I would think this qualifies.

So, if she ever wants to get married to another person in the future does that mean she will have to divorce her self? That sounds like it would be really traumatic.

Or she could practice Polygamy.  Herself & Herself....

wait.

What if she has multiple personality disorder and her alter self is a male, and she marries a male?   Then she'd be married to herself which is a male which is heterosexual, and her man self could be married to a man which is gay.
