Sologamy

I have just come across the term, 'sologamy', which means marrying yourself, WEIRD!  :o

I wouldn't marry me.  ;D

Has anyone else heard of this strange practice?

LR,

I'd only do it if I could sign a pre-nup with myself first. Frankly I'm not sure I'd trust myself not to take every penny from me if things didn't work out as I'd hoped...

Never heard owt so bloody daft, as they say in Yorkshire. Well, apart from marrying buildings and other inanimate objects, which also happens.

I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

Was there a pause before the reply?
