“I married the Berlin Wall!”
Posted by michellemoquin on June 10th, 2008
Have you ever been in love with something? ‘Thing’ being the operative word here. Many people have fetishes; usually to a particular part of the body that isn’t necessarily considered sexual. But we’re not talking about part of a human body. We are talking about an inanimate object. Yes, you read this right – Ya gotta love humans and our emotions!
People who fall ‘in love’ with an inanimate object have what they call ‘Objectophilia’ or ‘Objectum-Sexuals’. They just don’t love this thing, say like, ‘I love my new jeans!’ Nope…these people literally ‘feel love’, are ‘in love’ and want to ‘marry’ the object they are in enamored with! They want to have sex and relationships with them; their passion as ardent as any human relationship. And believe it or not, many do. In fact, feeling anything like this towards another human, one of their own kind, seems ludicrous.
One woman woke up one morning knowing that her husband was going to be executed that morning. His crime? The sole fact that he existed. Her ‘husband” was the Berlin Wall. She married the wall in 1979 and 10 years later she watched as her ‘husband’ was brutally destroyed and murdered with hammers, as people tore chunks from his ‘body’. This scene devastated and traumatized her just like any woman would feel loosing her ‘husband’. Oh and by the way, she was once engaged to a guillotine for a while, but they broke it off, though they remain friends.
Just like in human to human relationships, issues crop up in ‘Objectum-Sexual relationships. One ‘in love’ with an object can even feel the same guilt when meeting another object of affection that one wants to have an ‘affair’ with. One man who was in a ‘relationship’ with his beloved steam locomotive quite often ‘cheated’ because he was particularly aroused by the inner workings of mechanical objects. A simple repair job lead to ‘affairs’. Oh..incidentally his relationship with his ‘steam loco’ (I like the shorter name ’cause who wouldn’t think it was crazy to be in love with something like this in the first place!) partner is ‘male’ to him so technically he is in a ‘gay’ ‘Objectum-Sexual’ relationship.
Could it get any stranger?
Readers: Know anybody like this? Or are you one. I’ve always had a strong attraction to my butt plug – does that count? Ahhahhahaaahhahhh!!!!
Gratefully your blog host,

This is certainly something I didn’t know existed…I suppose there are some that are in love with their blow up dolls or latex vaginas, just as some are into their dildos, plugs and other items…but to marry? Is this actually legal? What would the Will look like? How would that get administered. Did the Berlin wall have insurance?

this blog is written in such a way that the author appears shocked / surprised
i am an objectum sexual.
i have always been this way. the love i feel for my object is like any love somebody else would feel for a human partner
my first love was my drum kit- whcih i talked to and felt its emotions and responces. it was a sexual relationship aswell.
i feel for those people who fall in love with public objects.. they cant get any private time to be intimate with them.
and as the lady said in the article-i did feel guilt when i met my 2nd and current partner – the American flag
i cheated on my drums with my flags and i felt really bad – and i made myself choose between them – and i chose my flags and broke it off with the drums
it is proabably hard to understand for most people i guess.. and its hard for us too cos people laugh at us and think we are weird. i wish people would not be so judgemental. i love my flags – and my flags love me
