Schoolyard kids sometimes tease, “If you love ______ so much, why don’t you marry it.” One woman did just that…she married the Eiffel Tower. Collectors of objects may love collecting, admire their collection and perhaps even ‘love’ them. A documentary movie named, Married to the Eiffel Tower, explores Objectum Sexuals. ‘OS’ people believe their love with objects are reciprocal and that they can telepathically communicate with them. They have a passion for inanimate objects: Amy’s in love with a church organ and Eija Riita married the Berlin Wall. Because they can’t always be with their loved ones, they buy or create miniature models of their objects of affection. Thanks to Building Collector reader Luis A. for sending me this tip.
