Quote:
Indian man marries dog

A man in southern India married a female dog in a traditional Hindu ceremony as an attempt to atone for stoning two other dogs to death — an act he believes cursed him. P. Selvakumar married the sari-draped former stray named Selvi, chosen by family members and then bathed and clothed for the ceremony Sunday at a Hindu temple in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, the Hindustan Times newspaper said. Selvakumar, 33, told the paper he had been suffering since he stoned two dogs to death and hung their bodies from a tree 15 years ago.

The same story is repeated thousands of times all over the world daily when many men marry unsuitable partners. (And vice versa, of course. You can stop kicking me now, feminists.)

For punishment for your stoning and hanging of 2 women, you are cursed to get married to a woman to redeem yoursef!

Welcome to India.

And I suppose she's going to expect him to make all the money and do all the work in the marriage. Except guard the house, of course!

:lol:

Him at the local tavern: "My wife is a dog." Other man, "Oh, I hear that, buddy!"

Shouldn't the headline be "dog marries murderer".

Infidelity divorce! :D I mean, surely a sentence to marry is not also a sentence for you to have no recourse to your spouse being unfaithful to you. He should have her put to sleep. :P

If it was I who was sentenced, I'd love telling people, "Ya, my wife was just such a two-timing b***h, I had to have her put down," and watch the looks on their faces.
