Cute or just creepy ?

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4170320/Amanda-Whittaker-has-fallen-in-love-with-the-Statue-of-Liberty.html

Smitten shop assistant Amanda Whittaker, 27, says she has fallen head over heels for the iconic New York monument.

Amanda, who had a passionate love affair with a drum kit while still at school, said: "She is my long-distance lover and I am blown away by how stunning she is."

The 27 year old, from Leeds, has a condition called objectum sexuality, in which people fall in love with things rather than humans.

She first fell for "Libby", as she calls the statue, when a pal in New York posted her a picture online.

Since then she has visited the 151ft statue in person four times, caressing it and leaning out of a window to kiss its hair. She has even thought about marrying it — but decided against it "because so many others love her too".

Instead she has settled for a shrine to Libby in her home featuring a 6ft replica, hundreds of smaller models and ornaments and huge US flags.

She said: "Other people might be shocked to think I can have romantic feelings for an object, but I am not the same as them."


Personally I think its creepy , imagine seeing her kissing and caressing oul ''Libby'' , How did she even get such a fascination in the first place?!

Cute? No. Creepy? No. Mental? Yup.

Sindri

It's not cute and nor is it creepy.


She's not sick.

The worst one there has to be the guy that married himself!:mad:

I knew before I even opened the link she'd be horrible looking.

And I was right.

She has a name... It's Libby... And some of us think she is relatively attractive!

I would give my left hand to caress Libbys hair

Whatever your into.

But unfortunately she wont be attracted to you unless your made of stone.

She's a flake, but at least a harmless one. By the looks of her, what she really needs is a new pastime like walking or jogging - regular exercise for several hours every day to get at least 20 kilos of flab off her and make her attractive to some or other human to love and be loved by.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Sunnyisland

God help her,She wouldn't get a hug of a bear, A statue will have to do.

Bitches be crazy

Shes a shop assistant so i reckon she gets her kicks from serving people in that. If ur not geting it kids or animals are favorites but i guess objects is the way to go.

Doc Ruby

Imagine the children, they'd be like them little venus figurines worshipped by primitive tribes in caves around Europe.

As sad as I think that story is, I think it would be a lot sadder if she was hot. But it is sad. She needs help. As my father often would say "she's more to be pitied than laughed at".

Vicar in a tutu

I agree .. its quite sad in fairness.. libby can just never love her the way she loves libby.. and the drumset.

as125634do

Evolution not a hope. Shallowness bang on

Caraville

Eh, why on earth would anyone find this "cute"??!

Ok, I get perhaps not thinking it's creepy in the sense that she's not really harming anyone, but it's not "cute" anyway.

It's definitely weird anyway, whatever way you look at it.

She said: "Other people might be shocked to think I can have romantic feelings for an object, but I am not the same as them."

Hmm, bit of an understatement, I think.

Poor cow. That's pretty sad.

Gummy Panda

So does she put on of those dildos with a suction cup on it then back into it?

I just don't understand the logistics of a love affair with inanimate object :pac:

Mr.Biscuits

I'm in love with a mannequin I stole from River Island - couldn't resist those perfectly permanent erect nipples of hers.

Man the looks I got coming home with her on the Luas.

antodeco

Technically, does this make her a lesbian?

EDIT: Oh holy. Just looked up from my phone after posting and the first thing I saw was the statue of liberty on TV.

Objectum restraining order?

To be honest, I find it a bit sad. But not in the "shes a loser" sense of sad, the actual I feel sorry for her a bit.

Just came to post that, I knew she'd be a fat mess and I was right. The chances of her being fit were slim to nil.

Like someone said she doesnt have much chance with anyone alive so. Women is wacko. Poor statue.

PS OP in what way could this be 'cute'? It's not a cute puppy whose taken a fondness to the statue, its a 20 stone humpback whale.

Iron and copper, as Deus Ex has taught me. Everything I know I've learned from videogames.

Logical Fallacy

It's called Object Sexuality and it happens quite a bit. There is a French woman who married the Eiffel Tower, a German woman who married a wall. It's not a special wall, just a wall in her town.

The general theme among people who experience is that they have a complete disconnect from normative human emotional relationships and sexual desire. The unwavering and unchanging nature of the object is what is really attractive to them, people change too much and are too foreign a concept for people who experience this to comprehend.

No real point in feeling sad for this woman, or seeking to insult, she wouldn't really understand where you are coming from and to her you are the freak. To her, she isn't missing out on anything or isn't odd in any way, that is just the world she lives in.

She's about as large as it too ...

Shes not bad under those frocks.
