Why is there an 'online marriage'
Time:2025-09-01 Views:779
Introduction: Online marriage refers to the use of virtual identities by both men and women on the interactive platform of the internet to experience mutual love, marriage, household management, and even "having children" in a virtual graphic environment. It avoids the real marriage life intertwined with pots, pans, and survival insights, relying on virtual reality with network icons and symbolic symbols to pursue sustenance. It is not only a game life, but also a game marriage. In fact, online marriage is an imitation of real marriage.
Firstly, the imitation of marriage conditions.
The establishment of a real marriage is regulated by the Marriage Law, which requires both parties to have a marriage agreement, reach the legal age for marriage, prohibit bigamy, and prohibit the marriage of blood relatives within a certain range. The establishment of online marriage also requires compliance with some game rules, such as some virtual communities declaring that those who post more than 200 are adult men and women, that both parties must voluntarily enter into a union, prohibiting bigamy, and prohibiting same-sex unions.
Secondly, the imitation of marriage procedures.
The Marriage Law stipulates that registration is a legal procedure for the establishment of marriage. Online marriage also needs to go through registration procedures, that is, registering at the marriage registration office in the virtual community. In addition, a wedding ceremony can also be held, inviting virtual relatives and friends to attend, giving gifts and causing chaos in the wedding room. However, virtual communities are uncontrollable, so gamers cannot avoid trying marriage fast food, breaking through the taboos of reality, pursuing polygamy or polyandry online, and never getting tired of it.
Editor's note: There is a fundamental difference between online marriage and real-life marriage. In real marriage, both the man and the woman applying for marriage have legal effect after being approved and registered by the marriage registration authority. Otherwise, it is illegal, invalid, and revocable. Online marriage is completely virtual, with a hidden nature where both parties rely on the interaction of graphic and textual symbols to complete the marriage process, without the obligation and responsibility of marriage. Therefore, it is not a true legal marriage and cannot have any legal effect.
