    Chen Wei-yih has posed for a set of photos in a flowing white dress, enlisted a wedding planner and rented a banquet hall for a marriage celebration with 30 friends.

    But there is no groom. Chen will marry herself.


    Uninspired by the men she's met but facing social pressure to get married, the 30-year-old Taipei office worker will hold the reception next month in honor of just one person.

    "Age thirty is a prime period for me. My work and experience are in good shape, but I haven't found a partner, so what can I do?" Chen said.

    "It's not that I'm anti-marriage. I just hope that I can express a different idea within the bounds of a tradition," she added.

    Her $5,675 wedding comes after online publicity that has netted 1,800 largely sympathetic comments.

    "I think there will be more and more girls like this," said "divagirl," who did not elaborate.

    Taiwanese women are marrying later and less often as their economic status advances, fuelling government concerns about a drop in the birth rate and its impact on productivity.

    Australian holiday

    Only 40 percent of women surveyed earlier this year by the education ministry said they imagined married people could live better than singles, local media said.

    "I was just hoping that more people would love themselves," said Chen, who will go on a solo honeymoon to Australia.

    Chen said her mother had insisted on a groom at first but later jumped aboard the solo marriage plan.

    But as Chen cannot officially register a marriage to herself, if she finds a man later she will wed again.

    "If I had a steady boyfriend, I wouldn't do this," Chen said. "It would be offensive to him, anyway."

    She could probably pay for the wedding if she broadcasts the consecration.

    Given the overwhelming ratio of males to females in mainland China, she should probably shop around to the young entreprenuerial class of young men with almost no prospect of marriage.

    From a relatively normal ratio of 108.5 boys to 100 girls in the early 80s, the male surplus progressively rose to 111 in 1990, 116 in 2000, and is now is close to 120 boys for each 100 girls at the present time, according to a Chinese think-tank report.

    LOL, what is great about that is I have a habit of not looking at the name of who I am responding to. I didn't even realize it was you. Now, saying that to you seems like a big move on my part. LOL sorry about that. Still funny though, and anyway, I got to use my swearcrow.

    Hate to judge but a lot of them are freaks. Sometimes I think it's the women scared of the men there. Sometimes freaky porn pops up during my regular porn watching and its most of the time like 20 chinamen molesting some girl scared out of her mind. Or even one on one the girl is like crying like wtf.

    yes girls watch the occasional porn
