    A Chinese man has married himself to express his "dissatisfaction with reality".



    Liu Ye, 39, from Zhuhai city, married a life sized foam cut-out of himself wearing a woman's bridal dress.

    "There are many reasons for marrying myself, but mainly to express my dissatisfaction with reality," he said.

    "This marriage makes me whole again. My definition of marriage is different from others."

    The ceremony was held at a traditional courtyard packed with more than 100 guests.

    The 'couple' were led out by a bridesmaid and a groomsman and bowed to ancestors and senior guests for blessings.

    Liu says he is not gay, but admits he's "maybe a bit narcissistic", reports New Express.

    Yeah this is China some areas the ratio is 130 guys chasing 100 girls and in others maybe 115 guys chasing only 100 girls

    The guys outnumber the available number of girls

    I guess this is the Chinese DIY Marriage ;)
