With this herring I thee wed
British woman ‘marries’ dolphin, tying the net after 15-year courtship

JERUSALEM - Sharon Tendler met Cindy 15 years ago. She said it was love at first sight. This week she finally took the plunge and proposed. The lucky "guy" plunged right back.

In a modest ceremony at Dolphin Reef in the southern Israeli port of Eilat, Tendler, a 41-year-old British citizen, apparently became the world's first person to "marry" a dolphin.

Dressed in a white dress, a veil and pink flowers in her hair, Tendler got down on one knee on the dock and gave Cindy a kiss. And a piece of herring.

"It's not a perverted thing. I do love this dolphin. He's the love of my life," she said Saturday, upon her return to London.

Tendler, who said she imports clothes and promotes rock bands in England, has visited Israel several times a year since first meeting the dolphin.

When asked in the past if she had a boyfriend, she would always reply, "No. I'm going to end up with Cindy." On Wednesday, she made it official, sort of. While she acknowledged the "wedding" had no legal bearing she did say it reflected her deep feelings toward the bottlenosed, 35-year-old object of her affection.

"It's not a bad thing. It’s just something that we did because I love him, but not in the way that you love a man. It's just a pure love that I have for this animal," she said.

While she still kept open the option of "marrying human" at some stage, she said for now she was strictly a "one-dolphin woman."

She's hardly the jealous type, though.

"He will still play with all the other girls there," she said, of their prenuptial agreement. "I hope he has a lot of baby dolphins with the other dolphins. The more dolphins the better."

Ibe heard of lesbians, Ive heard of dolphins, but not lesbian dolphins!!!!


Thats strange :eek:

wow, wtf?

Let me guess.

The honeymooned at Sea World.

;)

there must be something really wrong with her brain if she has a passionate attraction for that thing. biologically you can only feel that way towards organisms of your own species.

Okay okay, so let me get this straight...people can get married to dolphins...but not...people of the same sex. That's rich. That's ****ing rich. :rofl:

Wow, that is strange. Did anyone else get this really gross/disturbing image in their when they read that?

Ew!! :lol:

:clap

This just shows what would happen if the law of marriage between only a man and a woman is changed. People will want to start marrying their pets! :crazy:

I wonder how the dolphin slimmed down in time to fit into her dress for the big day?

EDIT: Nevermind, I just saw that the dolphin is male. Who in the HELL names a male dolphin Cindy?! Am I the only one who refuses to overlook this bizarre factoid?

:lol: I was just gonna say that!


And who knew dolphins lived so long?

OK... the human race has lost it. :rolleyes:

There must be something about the whole "bottle nose" thing that she secretly enjoys..

:lol: I had to read it a second time to make sense out of it. I kept confusing the woman and dolphin, too. It's bad enough the woman married a dolphin...but gah, the male dolphin's name is Cindy on top of that. Bizarre.

OK... the human race has lost it. :rolleyes:
Oh, they didn't have it to lose.

I remember people use to joke about the day when people would start marrying animals. I hoped to God that I wouldn't live to see that day. That is just disgusting. Next thing you know, people will be marrying there dogs, and I don't even want to imagine what they'll do in private with them. ohno: puke:

and I don't even want to imagine what they'll do in private with them.

That was the gross image I got in my head when I read this. :barf:

and I don't even want to imagine what they'll do in private with them. ohno: puke:

:eek2: omg:

Horrifying mental images...

free willy

Seriously! I mean, it's bad enough if she marries a dolphin named Mark or something like that. But no, just any old regular dolphin won't do! She has to go and marry one who also dresses in drag and has a 'female' persona named Cindy.

Was his best man Flipper?



Ok, I guess it would have to be the mummified corpse of Flipper, then.

And that will probably be the next thing; marrying the stuffed corpses of your pets.

Okay okay, so let me get this straight...people can get married to dolphins...but not...people of the same sex. That's rich. That's ****ing rich. :rofl:
Actually they can't legally get married to dolphins either. ...yet.

But it is the same idea, really. This incident is just another example of what will happen if/when there are no boundaries.

Let's not forget on Pee Wee's Playhouse, the first Man - Fruit marriage.

After Pee Wee declares he loves fruit salad, the rest of the playhouse yells out, "Why don't you marry it?"

And Pee Wee declares, "I think I will."

It was a lovely ceremony (isn't the bride beautiful?).

I guess he was sitting on the couch next to that 2 1/2 year old Mummy Woman in the other thread.

WOW that woman is just :crazy: That's just sick, she needs to seek help and fast
