    So wait, in Japan a guy can marry an electronic device, but in American we still freak out over two loving men or two loving women getting married. Fuckin' ridiculous.

    Clearly American thinks that a DS is more of a person than gay people.

    um..... In America, you cannot marry an electronic device. This is a story taking place near Japan. Not America.

    Oh, and don't reproduce.

    @Tre_Green: I'm not sure why you are thinking that this was an ACTUAL wedding. No marriage license was issue, no insurance breaks given, she does not get half of his stuff if he dies, they cannot consummate their relationship, the game character cannot be given tax breaks.

    This is more like that woman who married the Eiffel Tower last year.

    All just a big publicity event.

    Also, with your last comment, enjoy the mighty ban hammering.

    @Slagathorian: I made a joke about gay marriage, you came off as homophobic so I called you religious. Why you so ragey?

    And I am 9 years old and I am scared of many things. Hammers and bans are two of my greatest fears in life. My father was a vietnam vet who died in a tragic plane crash due to a hammer. My mother was killed in a horse riding accident when I was 4 due to a ban. Please do not bring these things up to me, they really make me sad. Infact all day I will think about it. Oh no, I put in and fact together in one word. God I am so dumb I am going to hang myself. I am such a moron, how DARE I make a joke on the internet and have it taken serious. How dare I. Most people understand that you can't pick up sarcasm off of text, but still some make me feel dumb for even trying. God I hate my life I am so glad that people speak up and tell me these things so I don't live for any more of my 7 - er 9 - year old life in hysterics and fear. Thank you, Slagothorian, you are a true prophet of our times. I bid you farewell, just like I do the rest of the world. May your life be full of money, happiness and not being able to decipher jokes out of other texts. I leave you my entire estate in my will, for you have truly opened my eyes this day - and for that - I love you.

    Well as I said the other day, if the dudes happy let him do what he wants. And I doubt a guy who is up for marrying a DS game was much in the running for continuing his families name on anyway.

    However broadcasting it over the net does kinda scream 'Publicity Stunt!'. So tbh I doubt he's gonna go too far with this whole marriage thing. Wouldn't surprise me if in a years time he's divorcing her for some weird reasons, and broadcasting the divorce over the net too.

    I guess it also set's a precedent on AI weddings, which may get more common over the next couple of decades. Just wonder how long after that it doesn't start seeming weird :P

In Canada, you would have all the same rights as everybody else, but you're are also protected under hate crime legislation. Whereas someone like myself (straight) is not. So if someone called you a "faggot" (terrible word) you could take them to court, and they would have to pay you damages.
