Just as the world is starting to get used to homosexuality, a new type of sexuality is introduced. Today, “Good Morning America” discussed interesting cases in which people love inanimate objects. Yes, we’ve heard of this before with the man who has sex with cars, but now there’s a name: Objectum-Sexuality. Take for instance Erika Eiffel, who had a commitment ceremony and recently changed her name to reflect her bond with the Eiffel Tower. And the French landmark isn’t the first thing she’s loved. “When other teenagers were dating each other,” said Erika, “I was dating a bridge.” [ABC News]

Um…how do you have sex with a car? Aren’t gas tanks a little bent? And this chick is taking unrequited love to a whole other level. Is the Eiffel Tower going to send her flowers on their anniversary? Wow!

Objectum-Sexuality… Does one qualify because they love their vibrators? Maybe I’m just closed minded, but I’m going to stick to having relationships with other people as they can reciprocate emotion as well as sexual gratification.

Erika quote: “...it’s almost like I heard her [Eiffel Tower] crying out, saying, ‘Somebody, notice me’...” Projecting much? Yes, we notice. This woman is “clinical,” and needs help, having already been abandoned by family/friends, and discharged by the Airforce.

I agree with one of the ABC site-commenters who faults the equally wacko “sexologist,” and GMA for bottom-feeding gossip rag rejects. But I also fault what’s missing in ourselves.

Why are we so easily entranced with latest diagnosis du jour, or people with “verrry individual” traits? It’s a rhetorical.

@Cheese…hmmm…I guess I get it now…but I still don’t. Sure, there are multiple openings but…wouldn’t one get tired of trying to stick it to the muffler or the tranny fluid holder? Does one have to start dismantling the car for new experiences? Why can’t people just stick to porn? And objects that can at least enjoy what you’re putting down? All puns were intended btw.

@MoonBabye: Don’t do it with the tranny. Stick to heterosexual-automobile sex only.

This is so crazy. I feel bad for the people who feel like this, though. Even if I can’t understand it, I know it can’t be fun to have your love ridiculed by society. Or have your love be something you don’t really understand.
