First it was blacks and whites, then same-sex marriages, and sure enough next will be marriages to virtual people!
From Mashable: (http://mashable.com/2010/08/31/virtual-girlfriend-vacation/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Mashable+%28Mashable%29#8220; only%20in%20Japan%E2%80%9D:%20A%20beach%20town%20n ear%20Tokyo%20has%20begun%20catering%20to%20a%20sp ecific%20segment%20of%20young%20men,%20ones%20who% 20play%20the%20game%20Love%20Plus%20and%20have%20a %20strong%20desire%20to%20take%20their%20virtual%2 0%E2%80%9Cgirlfriends%E2%80%9D%20from%E2%80%A6)
Players can become deeply involved and engaged (no pun intended) with their virtual girlfriends, to the point that one young man even married (http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/asiapcf/12/16/japan.virtual.wedding/index.html) his in a Tokyo ceremony last year.
